We show that inverse kinematics of different tools can be efficiently learned with a single recurrent neural network. Our model exploits all upper body degrees of freedom of the Honda's humanoid robot research platform. Both hands are controlled at the same time with parametrized tool geometry. We show that generalization both in space as well as across tools is possible from very few training data...
We present a dynamical system approach that couples task and joint space by means of an attractor-based content addressable memory. The respective recurrent reservoir network simultaneously provides a novel control framework for goal directed movement generation. The network first learns to associate end effector coordinates with joint angles by means of reservoir attractor states and thereby implements...
We present a neural network approach to early motor learning. The goal is to explore the needs for boot-strapping the control of hand movements in a biologically plausible learning scenario. The model is applied to the control of hand postures of the humanoid robot ASIMO by means of full upper body movements. For training, we use an efficient online scheme for recurrent reservoir networks consisting...
Reservoir computing (RC) uses a randomly created Recurrent Neural Network as a reservoir of rich dynamics which projects the input to a high dimensional space. These projections are mapped to the desired output using a linear output layer, which is the only part being trained by standard linear regression. In this work, RC is used for imitation learning of multiple behaviors which are generated by...
