Multi-task Gaussian Process Learning of Robot Inverse Dynamics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The inverse dynamics problem for a robotic manipulator is to compute the torques needed at the joints to drive it along a given trajectory; it is beneficial to be able to learn this function for adaptive control. A robotic manipulator will often need to be controlled while holding different loads in its end effector, giving rise to a multi-task learning problem. By placing independent Gaussian process priors over the latent functions of the inverse dynamics, we obtain a multi-task Gaussian process prior for handling multiple loads, where the inter-task similarity depends on the underlying inertial parameters. Experiments demonstrate that this multi-task formulation is effective in sharing information among the various loads, and generally improves performance over either learning only on single tasks or pooling the data over all tasks.

Multi-task learning with Gaussian processes
Multi-task learning refers to learning multiple tasks simultaneously, in order to avoid tabula rasa learning and to share information between similar tasks during learning. We consider a multi-task Gaussian process regression model that learns related functions by inducing correlations between tasks directly. Using this model as a reference for three other multi-task models, we provide a broad ...
متن کاملLearning Inverse Dynamics by Gaussian Process Regression under the Multi-Task Learning Framework
In this chapter, dedicated to Dit-Yan’s mentor and friend George Bekey on the occasion of his 80th birthday, we investigate for the first time the feasibility of applying the multi-task learning (or called transfer learning) approach to the learning of inverse dynamics. Due to the difficulties of modeling the dynamics completely and accurately and solving the dynamics equations analytically to ...

This paper presents a novel adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system based on interval Gaussian type-2 fuzzy sets in the antecedent part and Gaussian type-1 fuzzy sets as coefficients of linear combination of input variables in the consequent part. The capability of the proposed ANFIS2 for function approximation and dynamical system identification is remarkable. The structure of ANFIS2 is very sim...
متن کاملModel Learning with Local Gaussian Process Regression
Precise models of the robot inverse dynamics allow the design of significantly more accurate, energy-efficient and more compliant robot control. However, in some cases the accuracy of rigidbody models does not suffice for sound control performance due to unmodeled nonlinearities arising from hydraulic cable dynamics, complex friction or actuator dynamics. In such cases, estimating the inverse d...
