• Abstract summary: This paper introduces an CDCM with a Semi-active Mechanism (SAM) to expand the workspace via translational motion without additional mechanical elements or actuation. We develop a real-time compensation control algorithm using the trained Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) with a 1ms time latency, effectively estimating the manipulator's behavior.

• Abstract: Cable-Driven Continuum Manipulators (CDCMs) enable scar-free procedures via natural orifices and improve target lesion accessibility through curved paths. However, CDCMs face limitations in workspace and control accuracy due to non-linear cable effects causing hysteresis. This paper introduces an extensible CDCM with a Semi-active Mechanism (SAM) to expand the workspace via translational motion without additional mechanical elements or actuation. We collect a hysteresis dataset using 8 fiducial markers and RGBD sensing. Based on this dataset, we develop a real-time hysteresis compensation control algorithm using the trained Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN) with a 1ms time latency, effectively estimating the manipulator's hysteresis behavior. Performance validation through random trajectory tracking tests and box pointing tasks shows the proposed controller significantly reduces hysteresis by up to 69.5% in joint space and approximately 26% in the box pointing task.

  In robotics applications, smooth control signals are commonly preferred to reduce system wear and energy efficiency. In this work, we aim to bridge this performance gap by growing discrete action spaces from coarse to fine control resolution. Our work indicates that an adaptive control resolution in combination with value decomposition yields simple critic-only algorithms that yield surprisingly strong performance on continuous control tasks.
