Using Behavior Trees in Risk Assessment
- 基于行为树建模机器人任务流程,支持早期风险识别。
- 五位来自四家公司的实践者验证,可有效可视化风险点并连接代码与评估结果。
- 首次将行为树用于风险评估,适合机器人系统安全设计人员使用。
随着网络物理生产系统中协作机器人任务日益增多,对稳健且安全的任务需求不断提升。工业界依赖风险评估来识别潜在故障并制定缓解措施。尽管建议在机器人任务设计初期开展风险评估,但实际操作中仍存在挑战:安全专家常难以在早期阶段全面理解任务,也难以确保评估结果在实施阶段被充分考虑。本文通过设计科学研究,提出一种以开发为中心的模型化方法,利用行为树支持早期风险评估。我们联合四家公司共五名从业者进行了评估。结果表明,行为树模型有助于早期识别风险、可视化风险分布,并弥合代码实现与风险评估输出之间的差距。该方法是首次将行为树应用于风险评估,其发现凸显了进一步发展的必要性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Cyber-physical production systems increasingly involve collaborative robotic missions, requiring more demand for robust and safe missions. Industries rely on risk assessments to identify potential failures and implement measures to mitigate their risks. Although it is recommended to conduct risk assessments early in the design of robotic missions, the state of practice in the industry is different. Safety experts often struggle to completely understand robotics missions at the early design stages of projects and to ensure that the output of risk assessments is adequately considered during implementation. This paper presents a design science study that conceived a model-based approach for early risk assessment in a development-centric way. Our approach supports risk assessment activities by using the behavior-tree model. We evaluated the approach together with five practitioners from four companies. Our findings highlight the potential of the behavior-tree model in supporting early identification, visualisation, and bridging the gap between code implementation and risk assessments' outputs. This approach is the first attempt to use the behavior-tree model to support risk assessment; thus, the findings highlight the need for further development.
