Abstract. Children seem intrinsically motivated to manipulate, to explore, to test, to learn and they look for activities and situations that provide such learning opportunities. I...
— We present an active learning algorithm for the problem of body schema learning, i.e. estimating a kinematic model of a serial robot. The learning process is done online using ...

In this paper, a neural network controller for constrained robot manipulators is presented. A feedforward neural network is used to adaptively compensate for the uncertainties in ...
— In this paper we discuss the integration of active and passive approaches to robotic safety in an overall scheme for real-time manipulator control. The active control approach ...
