Incremental Learning in a 14 DOF Simulated iCub Robot: Modeling Infant Reach/Grasp Development
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a neurorobotic model that develops reaching and grasping skills analogous to those displayed by infants during their early developmental stages. The learning process is realized in an incremental manner, taking into account the reflex behaviors initially possessed by infants and the neurophysiological and cognitive maturations occurring during the relevant developmental period. The behavioral skills acquired by the robots closely match those displayed by children. Moreover, the comparison of the results obtained in a control non-incremental experiment demonstrates how the limitations characterizing the initial developmental phase channel the learning process toward better solutions.

In this paper, a complete dynamical model is presented for an uncertain -DOF robot manipulator containing description of sector and dead-zone input nonlinearities. Next, robust finite-time tracking problem of desired trajectories is declared and formulated for the aforementioned robot manipulator. By defining innovative nonlinear sliding manifolds and developing the nonsingular terminal sliding...
متن کاملCoupled dynamical system based arm-hand grasping model for learning fast adaptation strategies
Performing manipulation tasks interactively in real environments requires a high degree of accuracy and stability. At the same time, when one cannot assume a fully deterministic and static environment, one must endow the robot with the ability to react rapidly to sudden changes in the environment. These considerations make the task of reach and grasp difficult to deal with. We follow a programm...
متن کاملA biomimetic reach and grasp approach for mechanical hands
Reach and grasp are the two key functions of human prehension. The Central Nervous System controls these two functions in a separate but interdependent way. The choice between different solutions to reach and grasp an object – provided by multiple and redundant degrees of freedom (dof) – depends both on the properties and on the use (affordance) of the object to be manipulated. This same contro...
متن کاملAction Development and Integration in an Humanoid iCub Robot
One major challenge in adaptive/developmental robotics is constituted by the need to identify design principles that allow robots to acquire and display different behavioral skills by consistently and scalably integrating new behaviors into their existing behavioral repertoire. In this paper we briefly present a novel method that can address this objective, the theoretical background behind the...
