In recent years in mobile robotics, the focus has been on methods, in which the fusion of measurement data from various systems leads to models of the environment that are of a probabilistic type. In this paper, a new approach to solving SLAM problems, based on the cognitive model of a mobile robot's closed environment, is developed. The cognitive model of the environment is less accurate than the exact mathematical one, but it is unavoidable in the robot collaborative interaction with a human. The subject of the research proposed in this paper is the development of a model for learning and planning robot operations. The task of operations and mapping the unknown environment, similar to how humans do the same tasks in the same conditions has been explored. The learning process is based on a virtual dynamic model of a mobile robot, identical to a real mobile robot. The mobile robot's motion with developed artificial neural networks and genetic algorithms is defined. The transfer method of obtained knowledge from simulated to a real system (Sim-To-Real; STR) is proposed. This method includes a training step, a simultaneous reasoning step, and an application step of trained and learned knowledge to control a real robot's motion. Use of the basic cognitive elements language, a robot's environment, and its correlation to that environment is described. Based on that description, a higher level of information about the mobile robot's environment is obtained. The information is directly generated by the fusion of measurement data obtained from various systems.
