Fast and Stable Learning of Quasi-Passive Dynamic Walking by an Unstable Biped Robot based on Off-Policy Natural Actor-Critic
— Recently, many researchers on humanoid robotics are interested in Quasi-Passive-Dynamic Walking (Quasi-PDW) which is similar to human walking. It is desirable that control para...

Stiffness Isn't Everything
Most robot designers make the mechanical interface between an actuator and its load as stiff as possible[9][10]. This makes sense in traditional position-controlled systems, becau...
