软机器人固有的非线性特性虽带来控制挑战,但也赋予其丰富的计算潜力。蓄水池计算(RC)在控制非线性系统(如软致动器)方面已证明有效。通过利用软致动器的非线性动态进行计算,可将传统RC扩展为物理蓄水池计算(PRC)。本文提出一种基于PRC的在线学习控制框架,用于控制气动软弯曲致动器,采用另一气动软致动器作为PRC模型。与传统需两个RC模型的设计不同,该系统仅使用单一RC模型,结构更紧凑。此外,该框架支持零样本在线学习,克服了以往基于PRC的控制系统依赖离线训练的局限。仿真与实验验证了系统性能。实验结果表明,与线性模型相比,该PRC模型在弯曲运动控制任务中平均将均方根误差(RMSE)降低超过37%。所提出的基于PRC的在线学习控制框架,为利用物理系统的固有非线性提升软致动器控制能力提供了新思路。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The intrinsic nonlinearities of soft robots present significant control but simultaneously provide them with rich computational potential. Reservoir computing (RC) has shown effectiveness in online learning systems for controlling nonlinear systems such as soft actuators. Conventional RC can be extended into physical reservoir computing (PRC) by leveraging the nonlinear dynamics of soft actuators for computation. This paper introduces a PRC-based online learning framework to control the motion of a pneumatic soft bending actuator, utilizing another pneumatic soft actuator as the PRC model. Unlike conventional designs requiring two RC models, the proposed control system employs a more compact architecture with a single RC model. Additionally, the framework enables zero-shot online learning, addressing limitations of previous PRC-based control systems reliant on offline training. Simulations and experiments validated the performance of the proposed system. Experimental results indicate that the PRC model achieved superior control performance compared to a linear model, reducing the root-mean-square error (RMSE) by an average of over 37% in bending motion control tasks. The proposed PRC-based online learning control framework provides a novel approach for harnessing physical systems' inherent nonlinearities to enhance the control of soft actuators.
