  • Abstract
    An approach is proposed to represent and reason about the uncertainty in terrain description by using fuzzy set theory. The whole terrain is assumed to be classified into a set of fuzzy regions, and weight of region is interpreted as a linguistic variable whose values are linguistic labels of fuzzy sets. Based on this representation, a decision function is established whose minus gradient information is used to lead the vehicle to travel to its goal with an acceptable cost
