چکیده

This paper presents an implementation of visual learning by appearance in conjunction with an adaptive, nonlinear controller for fine-positioning a manipulator onto a grasping position. We use principal component analysis to reduce the dimension of raw camera images (about pixels) to lower-dimension vectors that can be used as inputs of our neuro-fuzzy controllers. It is shown that this approach leads to a very robust system that is stable under variable environment conditions. The approach needs no camera calibration and is applied to tasks of three degrees of freedom, e.g. translating the gripper in the -plane and rotating it about the -axis.

A Neuro-Fuzzy Solution for Integrated Visual and Force Control

In this paper the use of a B-spline neuro-fuzzy model for different tasks such as vision-based fine-positioning using uncalibrated cameras and force control is presented. It is shown that neuro-fuzzy controllers can be used not only for low-dimensional problems like force control but also for high-dimensional problems like vision-based sensorimotor control and for fusing input from different se...

In this paper the use of a B-spline neuro-fuzzy model for diierent tasks such as vision-based ne-positioning and force control is presented. It is shown that neuro-fuzzy controllers can be used not only for low-dimensional problems like force control but also for high-dimensional problems like vision-based senso-rimotor control. Controllers of this type can be modularly combined to solve a give...

Neuro-fuzzy Modelling and Control of Robot Manipulators for Trajectory Tracking

This paper presents a new neuro-fuzzy controller for robot manipulators. First, an inductive learning technique is applied to generate the required modelling rules from input/output measurements recorded in the off-line structure learning phase. Second, a fully differentiable fuzzy neural network is developed to construct the inverse dynamics part of the controller for the on-line parameter lea...

Learning Fine Positioning of a Robot Manipulator Based on Gabor Wavelets

Abstract: A system for learning the pre-grasp positioning task for a robot manipulator is presented. The images delivered from a gripper mounted camera are analysed using Gabor filters which resemble the spatial response profiles of receptive fields found in visual cortex neurons. Using a quite small feature set, the system demonstrated efficiency with respect to speed and accuracy, as well as ...
