Animal Locomotion Controllers From Scratch
There exists a large body of research devoted to creating real time interactive locomotion controllers which are targeted at some specific class of character, most often humanoid bipeds. Relatively little work, however, has been done on approaches which are applicable to creatures with a wide range of different forms – partially due to the lack of easily obtainable motion-capture data for anima...
متن کاملAnimal Locomotion
Recent experimental and computational studies of swimming hydrodynamics have contributed significantly to our understanding of how animals swim, but much remains to be done. Ten questions are presented here as an avenue to discuss some of the arenas in which progress still is needed and as a means of considering the technical approaches to address these questions. 1. What is the threedimensiona...
متن کاملEvolved Controllers for Simulated Locomotion
We present a system for automatically evolving neural networks as physics-based locomotion controllers for humanoid characters. Our approach provides two key features: (a) the topology of the neural network controller gradually grows in size to allow increasingly complex behavior, and (b) the evolutionary process requires only the physical properties of the character model and a simple fitness ...
متن کاملDeep Kernels for Optimizing Locomotion Controllers
Sample efficiency is important when optimizing parameters of locomotion controllers, since hardware experiments are time consuming and expensive. Bayesian Optimization, a sample-efficient optimization framework, has recently been widely applied to address this problem, but further improvements in sample efficiency are needed for practical applicability to real-world robots and highdimensional c...
متن کاملRenewable fluid dynamic energy derived from aquatic animal locomotion.
Aquatic animals swimming in isolation and in groups are known to extract energy from the vortices in environmental flows, significantly reducing muscle activity required for locomotion. A model for the vortex dynamics associated with this phenomenon is developed, showing that the energy extraction mechanism can be described by simple criteria governing the kinematics of the vortices relative to...
