A reference model architecture leading to a desired error dynamics and an adaptation procedure which is independent of the initial state error is used. The reference model dynamics represents the desired dynamics relationship between position error, velocity error and external force. It also allows for the adaptation procedure to be tuned independently of the desired impedance behavior of the manipulator. The proposed control algorithm is shown to be globally stable, computationally simple and easy to implement. The theoretical results are verified through computer simulations.","PeriodicalId":299306,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS '93)","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123029265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors derive the condition for the asymptotic convergence of the feedback error learning method for each trial.

Using the /spl alpha/ function obtained above, a high-speed learning method for a trajectory control system is obtained. Simulations results are given for the trajectory control of a 1 link robot manipulator in two cases: (1) using a general feedback error learning method and (2) using the proposed high-speed learning method.

Because of a flexible mode due to in-joint compliance, the classical collocated control does yield good rigid mode dynamics with a correct phase margin in low and high frequency, and noncollocated control does not allow correct damping of the rotor mode. The simultaneous analysis of discrete root loci and Nicholas plots leads to a phase control law with a derivative term built from both input and output velocities. Simulations taking into account various real nonlinearities and measurement imperfections are proposed to validate this improved control design.","PeriodicalId":299306,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS '93)","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128020650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To identify an appropriate compliance that will guarantee successful assembly, a second approach is presented that is based on multiple demonstrations. A criterion for selecting a compliance matrix is identified so that the robot errors in position and the maximum contact force will be less than those of the human, and that the robot will be able to achieve this level of performance as long as variation in workpiece location is not larger than during the demonstrations. The analysis is restricted to tasks which are demonstrated with a consistent sequence of subtasks, where each subtask consists of straight line translational motion.","PeriodicalId":299306,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of 1993 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS '93)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129843583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
