精确的执行器模型对弥合仿真与真实机器人行为之间的差距至关重要,但高保真动态建模通常需要专用测试台和扭矩传感器。本文提出一种基于轨迹的执行器识别方法,利用可微仿真从编码器运动数据中拟合系统级执行器模型。识别问题被建模为轨迹匹配:给定命令关节位置及测量的关节角度与速度,通过在仿真器中反向传播梯度优化执行器与仿真器参数,无需扭矩传感器、电流/电压测量或嵌入式电机控制内部访问权限。该框架支持多种模型类型,从紧凑的结构化参数化到神经执行器映射,统一于一个优化流程。在高齿轮比执行器(含嵌入式PD控制器)的保留真实轨迹上,所提无扭矩传感器识别方法实现更紧密的轨迹对齐,将平均绝对位置误差从14.20 mrad降至最低7.54 mrad(提升1.88倍)。最后,在同一执行器类别的真实机器人行走任务中验证下游效果:使用优化后的执行器模型训练策略,使行进距离增加46%,旋转偏差减少75%。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Accurate actuation models are critical for bridging the gap between simulation and real robot behavior, yet obtaining high-fidelity actuator dynamics typically requires dedicated test stands and torque sensing. We present a trajectory-based actuator identification method that uses differentiable simulation to fit system-level actuator models from encoder motion alone. Identification is posed as a trajectory-matching problem: given commanded joint positions and measured joint angles and velocities, we optimize actuator and simulator parameters by backpropagating through the simulator, without torque sensors, current/voltage measurements, or access to embedded motor-control internals. The framework supports multiple model classes, ranging from compact structured parameterizations to neural actuator mappings, within a unified optimization pipeline. On held-out real-robot trajectories for a high-gear-ratio actuator with an embedded PD controller, the proposed torque-sensor-free identification achieves much tighter trajectory alignment than a supervised stand-trained baseline dominated by steady-state data, reducing mean absolute position error from 14.20 mrad to as low as 7.54 mrad (1.88 times). Finally, we demonstrate downstream impact for the same actuator class in a real-robot locomotion study: training policies with the refined actuator model increases travel distance by 46% and reduces rotational deviation by 75% relative to the baseline.
