Abstract— For robotic manipulation tasks in uncertain environments, good force control can provide significant benefits. The design of force-controlled actuators typically revo...
— Interested in Evolutionary Robotics, this paper focuses on the acquisition and exploitation of memory skills. The targeted task is a well-studied benchmark problem, the Tolman ...
The joint controllers used in robots like the Sony Aibo are designed for the task of moving the joints of the robot to a given position. However, they are not well suited to the pr...
— Robots acting in populated environments must be capable of safe but also time efficient navigation. Trying to completely avoid regions resulting from worst case predictions of...
