| Abstract | In the few past decades, several international researchers have worked to develop intelligent wheelchairs for the people with reduced mobility. For many of these projects, the structured set of commands is based on a sensor-based command. Many types of commands are available but the final decision is to be made by the user. A former work established a behaviour-based multi-agent form of control ensuring that the user selects the best option for him/her in relation to his/her preferences or requirements. This type of command aims at “merging” this user and his/her machine—a kind of symbiotic relationship making the machine more amenable and the command more effective. In this contribution, the approach is based on a curve matching procedure to provide comprehensive assistance to the user. This new agent, using a modelization of the paths that are most frequently used, assists the user during navigation by proposing the direction to be taken when the path has been recognized. This approach will spare the user the effort of determining a new direction—which might be a major benefit in the case of severe disabilities. The approach considered uses particle filtering to implement the recognition of the most frequent paths according to a topological map of the environment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
