• Abstract: The control and modeling of bionic robot dynamics have increasingly adopted model-free control strategies using machine learning methods. Given the non-linear elastic nature of bionic robotic systems, learning-based methods provide reliable alternatives by utilizing numerical data to establish a direct mapping from actuation inputs to robot trajectories without complex kinematics models. However, for developers, the method of identifying an appropriate learning model for their specific bionic robots and further constructing the transfer function has not been thoroughly discussed. Thus, this research trains four types of models, including ensemble learning models, regularization-based models, kernel-based models, and neural network models, suitable for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) data and non-linear transfer function identification, in order to evaluate their (1) accuracy, (2) computation complexity, and (3) performance of capturing biological movements. This research encompasses data collection methods for control inputs and action outputs, selection of machine learning models, comparative analysis of training results, and transfer function identifications. The main objective is to provide a comprehensive evaluation strategy and framework for the application of model-free control.

  We propose a model-based reinforcement learning (RL) approach for robotic arm end-tasks. We employ Bayesian neural network models to represent, in a probabilistic way, both the belief and information encoded in the dynamic model during exploration. Our experiments show the advantages of our Bayesian model-based RL approach, with similar quality in the results than relevant alternatives.
