We develop a linear parameter-varying (LPV) spectral decomposition method, based on least-squares estimation and kernel expansions. Statistical properties of the estimator are analyzed and verified in simulations. The method is linear in the parameters, applicable to both the analysis and modeling problems and is demonstrated on both simulated signals as well as measurements of the torque in an electrical...
For using industrial robots in applications where the robot physically interacts with the environment, such as assembly, force control is usually needed. A force sensor may, however, be expensive and add mass to the system. An alternative is therefore to estimate the external force using the motor torques. This paper considers the problem of force estimation for the case when the robot is not moving,...
In absence of covariance data, Kalman filters are usually initialized by guessing the initial state. Making the variance of the initial state estimate large makes sure that the estimate converges quickly and that the influence of the initial guess soon will be negligible. If, however, only very few measurements are available during the estimation process and an estimate is wanted as soon as possible,...
