— In this paper, we consider an anthropomorphically-inspired hybrid model of a bipedal robot with locking knees and feet in order to develop a control law that results in human-l...
— We have proposed the concept of Man-Machine Synergy Effectors. These are high-performance tools for human use, which are realized by introducing robot technology. It becomes po...
We present a novel method to control a biped humanoid robot to walk on unknown inclined terrains, using an online learning algorithm to estimate in real-time the local terrain fro...
— Passive dynamics plays an important role in legged locomotion of the biological systems. The use of passive dynamics is expected for energy efficiency, self-stabilization agai...
— This paper presents an algorithm for adapting periodic behavior to gradual shifts in task parameters. Since learning optimal control in high dimensional domains is subject to t...
