Nowadays, the complexity in the design of robotic systems increases exceptionally since human beings desire a higher level of intelligence and autonomy. The developed systems must be qualified of autonomously adapting to the variations in the operating environment while maintaining the overall objective to achieve tasks even in highly uncertain and unstructured environments. Such robotic systems must display the ability to learn from experience, adapt themselves to the changing environment, and seamlessly integrate information to-and-from humans.
