Adaptive Vision based Tracking Control of Robots with uncertainty in Depth Information”,

Abstract-In this paper, a vision based tracking controller with adaptation to uncertainty in depth information is presented. Depth uncertainty plays a special role in visual tracking as it appears nonlinearly in the overall Jacobian matrix and hence cannot be adapted together with other uncertain kinematic parameters. We propose a novel parameter update law to update the uncertain parameters of the depth. It is proved that system stability can be guaranteed for the visual tracking task in presence of uncertainties in depth information, robot kinematics and dynamics. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed controller

AI based Robot Safe Learning and Control

Introduction This open access book mainly focuses on the safe control of robot manipulators. The control schemes are mainly developed based on dynamic neural network, which is an important theoretical branch of deep reinforcement learning. In order to enhance the safety performance of robot systems, the control strategies include adaptive tracking control for robots with model uncertainties, compliance control in uncertain environments, obstacle avoidance in dynamic workspace. The idea for this book on solving safe control of robot arms was conceived during the industrial applications and the research discussion in the laboratory. Most of the materials in this book are derived from the authors’ papers published in journals, such as IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, neurocomputing, etc. This book can be used as a reference book for researcher and designer of the robotic systems and AI based controllers, and can also be used as a reference book for senior undergraduate and graduate students in colleges and universities
