    As the linguistic capabilities of AI-based dialogue systems improve, their human-likeness is increasing, and their behavior no longer receives a universal evaluation. To better adapt to users, the consideration of individual preferences is required. In this study, the relationships between the properties of a human-like dialogue system and dialogue evaluations were investigated using hierarchical cluster analysis for individual subjects. The dialogue system driven by generative AI communicated with subjects in natural language via voice-based communication and featured a facial expression function. Subjective evaluations of the system and dialogues were conducted through a questionnaire. Based on the analysis results, the system properties were classified into two types: generally and individually relational to a positive evaluation of the dialogue. The former included inspiration, a sense of security, and collaboration, while the latter included a sense of distance, personality, and seriousness. Equipping the former properties is expected to improve dialogues for most users. The latter properties should be adjusted to individuals since they are evaluated based on individual preferences. A design approach in accordance with individuality could be useful for making human-like dialogue systems more comfortable for users.

    In this study, we investigated dynamic control strategies for over-constrained cable-driven robots. In order to control a cable-driven robot, it is essential to address issues that arise from the restriction of cable tension, as well as to the redundancy issues that arise from an over-constrained cable-driven system. To control the amount of tension applied, we introduced a tension function that incorporates the hyperbolic tangent function. In contrast to previous research that required consideration of the relationship between tension constraints and computed control wrench in tension distribution problems, we developed a tension function that incorporates the hyperbolic tangent function, which allows tension to always satisfy tension constraints and eliminates the consideration of constraints at each step. The gradient descent method was applied to this tension function to determine an appropriate distribution of tension for the computed wrench. In order to manage tension distribution optimization for achieving objectives such as energy conservation, we provide a practical method to simultaneously realize the necessary wrench and the appropriate tension distribution. Compared with studies that focus on the complex analysis of the structure matrix to solve the tension distribution problem, the tension distribution issue is handled in a straightforward manner in our method, providing the solutions to other problems, such as discontinuity in the calculated wrench, and requirements of changing the cable’s force level during movement. The simulation results and results of comparison with other methods show the effectiveness of the method.

    AbstractConcerning facial expression generation, relying on the sheer volume of training data, recent advances on generative models allow high-quality generation of facial expressions free of the laborious facial expression annotating procedure. However, these generative processes have limited relevance to the psychological conceptualised dimensional plane, i.e., the Arousal-Valence two-dimensional plane, resulting in the generation of psychological uninterpretable facial expressions. For this, in this research, we seek to present a novel generative model, targeting learning the psychological compatible (low-dimensional) representations of facial expressions to permit the generation of facial expressions along the psychological conceptualised Arousal-Valence dimensions. To generate Arousal-Valence compatible facial expressions, we resort to a novel form of the data-driven generative model, i.e., the encapsulated variational auto-encoders (EVAE), which is consisted of two connected variational auto-encoders. Two harnessed variational auto-encoders in our EVAE model are concatenated with a tuneable continuous hyper-parameter, which bounds the learning of EVAE. Since this tuneable hyper-parameter, along with the linearly sampled inputs, largely determine the process of generating facial expressions, we hypothesise the correspondence between continuous scales on the hyper-parameter and sampled inputs, and the psychological conceptualised Arousal-Valence dimensions. For empirical validations, two public released facial expression datasets, e.g., the Frey faces and FERG-DB datasets, were employed here to evaluate the dimensional generative performance of our proposed EVAE. Across two datasets, the generated facial expressions along our two hypothesised continuous scales were observed in consistent with the psychological conceptualised Arousal-Valence dimensions. Applied our proposed EVAE model to the Frey faces and FERG-DB facial expression datasets, we demonstrate the feasibility of generating facial expressions along with the conceptualised Arousal-Valence dimensions. In conclusion, to generate facial expressions along the psychological conceptualised Arousal-Valance dimensions, we propose a novel type of generative model, i.e., encapsulated variational auto-encoders (EVAE), allowing the generation process to be disentangled into two tuneable continuous factors. Validated in two publicly available facial expression datasets, we demonstrate the association between these factors and Arousal-Valence dimensions in facial expression generation, deriving the data-driven Arousal-Valence plane in affective computing. Despite its embryonic stage, our research may shed light on the prospect of continuous, dimensional affective computing.

    This paper studies a novel recurrent neural network (RNN) with hyperbolic secant (sech) in the gate for a specific medical application task of Parkinson’s disease (PD) detection. In detail, it focuses on the fact that patients with PD have motor speech disorders, by converting the voice data into black-and-white images of a recurrence plot (RP) at specific time intervals and constructing the detection model that combines RNN and convolutional neural network (CNN); the study evaluates the performance of the RNN with sech gate compared with long short-term memory (LSTM) and gated recurrent unit (GRU) with conventional gates. As a result, the proposed model obtained similar results to LSTM and GRU (an average accuracy of about 70%) with less hyperparameters, resulting in faster learning. In addition, in the framework of the RNN with sech in gate, the accuracy obtained by using tanh as the output activation function is higher than using the relu function. The proposed method will see more improvement by increasing the data in the future. More analysis on the input sound type, the RP image size, and the deep learning structures will be included in our future work for further improving the performance of PD detection from voice.

    This paper presents novel RNN structures. In order to reduce the calculation as well as to overcome the analysis difficulty of gate structure and the problem of data dependence related normalization in the conventional method, 4 types of new RNNs inspired by shortcut connection were constructed while taking the advantages of gated RNNs and a sech function. Experiments and analyses are carried out to evaluate the performance of the RNNs. In detail, the experiments are performed using two corpus of WikiText-2 and IMDB, which have different properties. As a result, in the binary classification task using IMDB, the accuracy was about the same as LSTM and GRU with the parameter of 1/6 or less. However, in the language modeling task using WikiText-2, even if multilayer and the parameters of the intermediate layer were increased, the results were worse than that of conventional RNNs. This should be clarified in our future research.

    In this paper, we study on simplification of RNN and propose new structures which enable faster learning to improve the performance while reducing the number of learning parameters. We construct 4 types of RNNs with new gated structures and call these new RNNs “SGR (Simple Gated RNN)”. SGR have two or one gate and weight or no weight for input. Comparison studies are performed to verify the effectiveness of our proposal. As a result of machine translation in relatively small corpus, compared with LSTM and GRU, our proposed SGR can realize higher scores than LSTM and GRU. Furthermore, SGR can realize faster learning approximately 1.7 times than GRU. However, with the increase of learning layers and weights for input, the learning scores of SGR seems not increase as much as we expected, which should be studied in our future work. It is necessary to analyze in more detail a performance in larger dataset and a performance difference due to multi-layering, weight for input and the number of gates.

    In recent years, water massage bed which can provide full body massage is often used in physiotherapy. Compared to other physiotherapy equipment, water massage bed is particularly useful in the fact that it can directly massage the target area on the subject, thus leads to improvement in relieving muscle strain and provides a psychological relaxation effect. However, there is little research that examines the degree of relaxation effect on the human body caused by the water massage bed. In this study, we use a heart rate sensor to evaluate changes of relaxation before and during the massage. We observed that subjective evaluation is strongly correlated to the heart rate based relaxation analysis. In addition, the result of the subjective evaluation is heavily influenced by the changes in autonomic nerve activity in the first 30 seconds of the massage.

    We developed the Virtual Shopping Test-easy version (VST-e) , a new virtual reality based shopping task, to assess the comprehensive cognitive status of various aphasic patients. The purposes of this study were to examine the application of VST-e to aphasic patients, and to examine the validity and reliability of VST-e. Twenty left hemisphere-damaged stroke patients with aphasia and twenty age and education-matched healthy adults with no brain damage performed VST-e. In this test, after a demonstration with visual information and practice session, the participants were asked to buy two specific items in the virtual shopping mall by touching the PC screen as quickly and correctly as possible. They memorized the content of the shopping list in advance, and used hints on the screen when needed during the performance. The application of VST-e to aphasic patients was examined by comparing VST-e performance between the two groups and by analyzing correlations between VST-e variables and a verbal function test. The criterion-validity of VST-e was examined by analyzing correlations between VST-e variables and conventional neuropsychological tests (RCPM, SDMT, SRT, Symbol Cancellation, Symbol Trails, Design Memory, and Mazes) in the aphasia group. The reliability of VST-e was examined by calculating Cronbachʼs α. The results showed that VST-e performance was lower in the aphasic group than in the healthy group regarding the number of times using hints, the number of times making a turn on the shopping street, and the required time to accomplish one task. VST-e variables correlated significantly with verbal function, intelligence, attention, and executive function. Cronbachʼs α was 0.62. Although VST-e is affected by verbal ability, VST-e has criterionrelated validity and reliability. These results suggest that VST-e can be a useful tool to evaluate general cognitive functions in aphasic patients.

    Renormalization molecular dynamics method (RMD) is one of coarse-grained molecular dynamics methods to overcome limitations of calculation cost. The number of molecules is compressed by applying renormalization group conversion to the Hamiltonian, and simulations are possible at any scales by controlling the number of conversions. The main advantage of this method is that there is no need to remake the inter-molecular potential function of new coarse-grained molecules. By using this method, however, we cannot simulate hybrid systems that include molecules at different scales. In this study, we propose a simple scheme to perform hybrid molecular simulations with MD and RMD. In this method, we find the nearest N MD molecules from each RMD molecule and define them as closest MD molecules. We place a virtual RMD molecule at the center of gravity of the closest MD molecules, and calculate the interaction force between RMD and virtual RMD molecules. To test our method, we applied MD, RMD and MD-RMD Hybrid simulation methods to argon liquid and gas. Then, we calculated radial distribution function and viscosity, and compared the results. The results of the MD-RMD hybrid were similar to those of all-atom MD, and the simulation time was shortened to 1/4.

    In this research, we analyze a formation control of a multi-robot system while considering the limitation of communication range for each robots. With limitation in communication range, it is important to control the communication network topology of a multi-robot system in order to keep the network's connectivity. We formulate the multi-robot system as a hybrid dynamical system, with the communication constraints by inequality. Then we study the algorithm to solve a mixed integer programming problem that is equivalent to the optimal formation control probrem of the system. Computer simulation of the formation control of three robots is perform, in which a optimal control and a receding horizon control is done to assure the validity of our approach.

    In this research, we propose a distributed control method for a multi-vehicle system. Due to the communication range between vehicles, we need to consider the range when vehicles move toward objective positions, and moreover we need to control the network topology. We formulate a multi-vehicle system as a hybrid dynamical system in which we can control both vehicle positions and the network topology. The system can be controled by receding horizon method, but the method may require a long time because there are many discrete variables. Then, we analyze the constraint space and propose a distributed control method with reduced discrete variables. We show the advantage and computatinanal time of our method by a computer simulation.

    This research proposes a Asymmetry Parametric Excitation for a Biped Robot. In our research, we succeeded in developing an experimental parametric excited walking robot with counter weights and achieved the improvement of energy efficiency. However, the mechanism of this improvement has not been clarified. In this paper, we clarify the relation between the equipment of counter weights and the improvement of energy efficiency. It is found that counter weights create the asymmetry of the center of mass while the robot's posture during the double support phase is symmetric. This asymmetry contributes to the efficiency of restoring mechanical energy based on parametric excitation of the inverted pendulum. Therefore, a biped robot with counter weights can improve walking speed, step length, restored mechanical energy and walking energy efficiency.

  • 1A2-4 Identification of Ankle Viscoelasticity During Quiet Upright Stance
    IWAO Kazutaka, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhi-Whi
    Nowadays, aging is rapidly proceeding in Japan. We can predict that there will be many accidents of falls of the elderly. So we pay attention to the prevention of falling. In this paper, we model quiet posture with simple inverted pendulum model and identify ankle viscoelasticity during quiet stance using sway of the center of pressure measured by force plate. We examined the change of ankle viscoelasticity when the subject's visual conditions were changed or the ankles were stretched. Visual conditions were open eyes, closed eyes, and biofeedback of the center of pressure. While we found that sway of center of pressure increased as the result of change of visual conditions and ankle joints stretching, we found that ankle viscoelasticity did not change.

    Kato Shoichi, Nagano Akinori, Luo Zhiwei
    For evaluation and training of motor function, we developed a system which estimates human walking intention and trains human walking. We used treadmill with built-in force plates, and measure floor reaction force. From the force measurement, the intention of the subject was estimated. We find the linearity between the walking speed and the impulse of the horizontal reaction force when the ground was kicked in walking. Based on this characteristic, the speed of the treadmill was adjusted according to the subject's intention. As future tasks, it is necessary to further develop the system so that the individual variation can be solved.

    MURASE Yuki, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhi-Wei
    Recently, Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) has been studied by many researchers. In this study, brain activity of the frontal lobe was measured using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) when the subject feels comfortable or uncomfortable. Specifically, two kinds of emotion were classified by combination of five features and three discriminant analyses when the subject looked at the pictures in the screen. Presented pictures were three types: Figure, Color and Image task. As a result, maximum discrimination rate was 85% when training data were identical to the test data. Average discrimination rate was 10% lower when training data were different from test data. Discrimination rates varied by combination of features and discriminant analyses.

    In the study of efficient bipedal walking, the center of robot's total mass have been treated as an inverted pendulum. We have studied control methods in which this inverted pendulum follows the target trajectory of parametric excitation. In this paper, we propose a new target trajectory design method for efficient bipedal walking. This target trajectory was represented by a product of two sigmoid functions. We analyzed the relationship between parameters of target trajectory and energy efficiency. As a result, we found that the gentle rising and falling of the target trajectory contributed to energy efficiency via numerical simulations of an inverted pendulum and a bipedal robot. Then, we achieved efficient dynamic walking used by proposed target trajectory.

  • Effect of visual biofeedback on motor imagery
    NAGAI Shinichi, MURASE Yuki, SEKI Keiko, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhiwei
    The motor imagery of the body is frequently used for the BCI or rehabilitation. However, it is reported that the brain activation by motor imagery is lower than the brain activation by motor execution, and it is more difficult to use the motor imagery for the BCI or rehabilitation than the motor execution. This is because the subject is not given real-time sensory feedback when the motor imagery task is performed. We used the technique of biofeedback to solve this problem. Biofeedback is a technique that trains people to control bodily processes with equipments. We measured the brain activation during motor imagery with NIRS, and usually presented the measured brain activity to the subject. Finally, the brain activation by motor imagery approached that by motor execution, and we suggest that we can use the brain activation by motor imagery for the BCI or rehabilitation.

  • Hybrid Control of Network Coupled Dynamical System
    MURAYAMA Toru, LUO Zhi-Wei, NAGANO Akinori
    We report a hybrid control method of a network coupled system. A network coupled system is a coupled system whose subsystems interact through network, and the network structure is expressed as graph. Espesially we regard the graph as controllable states in our research, and we control the graph and subsystems' states simultane ously. Because the graph is a discrete state, we formulate a network coupled system as a hybrid dynamical system and show the control method.

  • B26 Mathematical analysis of hammer movement based on a parametrically excited double pendulum
    OHTA Ken, UMEGAKI Koji, MUROFUSHI Koji, LUO Zhi Wei
    The motions of a hammer are commonly regarded as a circular movement which a hammer undergoes around a turning human body. The distance of a throw depends on the speed of the hammer and the angle of its trajectory at the instant of release. The speed of the hammer increases gradually during preliminary winds and turns. During each turn the hammer rises up toward the high point of the trajectory and passes through the low point. Our interest in this study was to understand the mechanism of acceleration of the hammer in terms of parametrical excitation. The motions of hammer were analyzed to examine our theory using double pendulum model.

    Parametrically excited dynamic bipedal walking is an effective approach for a robot to restore its mechanical energy that is lost during the exchange of a leg's swing phase to the stance phase. Based on the parametric excitation principle, we succeeded in developing an experimental walking robot and realized for the first time the dynamic walking by the robot. In detail, the biped robot consists of four parallel legs with prismatic joints driven by DC motors so as to constrain its movement in a 2D plane. Each set of two inside or outside legs is physically jointed by a synchronous shaft and connected with the other set at the free rotational hip joint. The foot of each leg has a semicircular shape that has an effect to increase the walking speed without considering the zero moment point problem. By introducing an unique counterweight mechanism, it is shown that we can improve the Specific resistance, Restored mechanical energy and Walking soeed. Experimental studies and simulations show the effectiveness of this walking robot.

    The motions of hammer were analyzed to understand the mechanism of acceleration using variable-length pendulum and hula-hoop model using energy pumping mechanism. The condition that makes the time derivative of the energy positive is derived as energy pumping for hammer. The condition is expressed in terms of tugging force times velocity to pump hammer energy and tangential acceleration on the handle. In this study, motions of hammer were analyzed and numerical experiments were performed to examine the validity of the theory.

    It was clarified that energy-efficient dynamic bipedal walking can be achieved by effectively applying the principle of passive dynamic walking. Approaches based on virtual gravity are typical methods for generating efficient level dynamic gait. These methods, however, had the problem that the specified control input includes a singular point which causes complicated motion. This paper then proposes a new method, which is termed as the pseudo virtual passive dynamic walking, to solve this problem. We first formulate the basic method for a planar underactuated biped model with an upper body by introducing the concept of pseudo center of mass. We also consider to inhibit swing-leg retraction by constraining the impact posture to achieve the maximum efficiency condition. In addition, we discovered that the constraint on impact posture strongly extends the stable domain and improves the convergence speed to the steady gait through numerical simulations. We report the detailed analysis results and theoretically investigate how the constraint affects the gait properties.

    Robots that interact with humans in household environments are required to achieve multiple simultaneous tasks such as carrying objects, collision avoidance and conversation with human, in real time. This paper presents a design framework of multiple human-interacting tasks to meet the requirement by considering stochastic behavior of humans. The proposed designing method first introduces petri-net for parallel multiple tasks. The petri-net formulation is converted to Markov decision processes and processed in optimal control framework. Multiple task arbitration is resolved by optimization with approximated value functions. Two tasks of safety confirmation and conversation tasks are mutually interacting and expressed by petri-net. Tasks that normally tend to be designed by integrating many if-then rules can be dealt with in a systematic manner in the proposed framework, that is, in a state estimation and optimization framework. The proposed arbitration method was verified by simulations and experiments using RI-MAN, which was developed to do interactive tasks with humans.

    Achieving energy-efficient dynamic walking has become one of the main subjects of research in the area of robotic biped locomotion. It has been clarified that approaches based on passive-dynamic walkers accomplish it. In general, however, passive dynamic walking is realized by only the legs and the effect of an upper body has not been clarified. Based on the observations, this paper deeply investigates what effects an upper body had on the performances and stability of dynamic biped locomotion. We first consider adding an upper body, which is introduced as a simple 1-link torso, by means of a bisecting hip mechanism so as not to destroy natural dynamics of the biped model. In the second, we analyze the robot's driving mechanism and apply underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking as a method for generating efficient dynamic gait. We confirm that highly efficient dynamic walking is realized with a specific resistance of 0.01, and investigate the effects of physical parameters of the upper body through numerical simulations.

    This paper reports some interesting results on our experimental case study of parametrically excited dynamic bipedal walking. We describe the detailed specifications of the final walking machine that has telescopic legs, semicircular feet, free hip-joint, and counterweights. The walker finally succeeded in sustaining stable dynamic walking on level ground in accordance with the principle of parametric excitation utilizing the effects of semicircular feet and counterweights. We also conducted numerical analysis to examine the change of gait descriptors with respect to the physical parameters, and the results show that the counterweights are effective for improvement of the gait efficiency.

    In this paper we propose an approach to use tactile information in a robot's whole arm dynamic manipulation. Unlike those researches that only use tactile sensors to recognize objects or contact conditions, this approach considers the relation between a robot's motion trajectory and the tactile information for the succeeded tasks cases, and adjusts the robot's motion spatially and temporally so as to realize the required dynamic manipulations. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our approach. Our human interactive robot named RI-MAN can hold up a dummy weighing up tp18kg by this algorithm using real-time whole body tactile feedback.

    In recent years, many disasters that depend on the great earthquakes were reported in our country. Therefore, we are developing a rescue robot that searches for the victim cooped in the collapsed house. Our robot has no wheel and no extremity. It moves by bending traveling waves on its body. The third machine of our robot achieved some basic motions that are straight progress, rotating motion and climbing hill. This paper describes for the process of development from prototype machine to the third machine, and then for the analysis of some measured motions about third machine.

  • 1P1-E03 Asymmetric Shape of Semicircular Feet and Its Effect on Gait Performance
    ASANO Fumihiko, LUO Zhi-Wei
    The authors have clarified the mechanisms and importance of semicircular feet on dynamic biped locomotion. This paper then investigates the effect of asymmetric shape of semicircular feet on biped walking speed. The rolling effect acts as the virtual ankle-joint torque during the stance phase; the heel-side effect propels the robot's center of mass (CoM) forward during the first-half of cycle, whereas the toe-side effect forces CoM backward during the second-half of cycle. The feet on the other hand reduce energy-dissipation caused by heel-strikes at instants of transition. These properties can be adjusted by changing the foot radius. The question then yields of which effect is more crucial for gait generation. Underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking is considered to generate a biped gait and its parametric studies are performed to clarify the mechanisms of semicircular feet with various foot radius.

  • 1P1-E02 Role of Passive Knee-joints from Mechanical Energy Cycle Point of View
    ASANO Fumihiko, LUO Zhi-Wei
    This paper investigates the roles of passive knee-joints in dynamic biped locomotion systems from the viewpoint of mechanical energy cycle. We introduce two planar biped walking models for analyses; one is with semicircular feet and the other is with flat feet. Viscosity at knee-joint is considered as a function to distribute mechanical energy dissipation and its effect on walking speed is numerically investigated. The analysis results and properties of the two models are compared, and the importance of mechanical energy dissipation in dynamic biped locomotion is discussed.

    IPMC(ionic polymer-metal composite) actuator is one of the soft actuators to be expected as artificial muscles for small robots. The IPMC gel first bends quickly and then bends back slowly when a constant potential is applied to the sample. The latter phenomenon, reffered to as stress relaxation, is modeled by Electrostress Diffusion Coupling Model. We propose a dynamic state space model including stress relaxation. The result of the experiment demonstrates the validity of the model.

    This paper investigates what effect semicircular feet had on dynamic bipedal walking. It has been clarified in paper (I) that underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking can be realized by using the rolling effect, which acts as the ankle-joint torque virtually. This paper (II) then studies the rolling effect on the gait performances in detail through theoretical investigations and numerical analyses. We first perform parameter studies, and confirm that a suitable choice of the foot radius increases walking speed effectively. It is then theoretically clarified that increasing walking speed is achieved not by the rolling effect during the single support phase but by reducing the energy-dissipation due to heel-strike collisions. It is also confirmed that mass of the leg is necessary to drive the robot's center of mass in the walking direction. Furthermore, extension to redundant models with knee-joints is discussed.

    Realization of an energy-efficient and high-speed dynamic walking has come to be one of the main subjects in the research area of robotic biped locomotion, and passive dynamic walking has been widely attracted as a clue to solve this problem. It has been empirically known that the effect of convex curve shape of feet, which characterizes passive-dynamic walkers, is important to increase walking speed. This research consists of two parts and aims to investigate the rolling effect of semicircular feet on dynamic bipedal walking. In this paper (I), driving mechanisms of compass-like biped robots and the rolling effect of semicircular feet are mainly investigated. We first analyze the mechanisms of a planar fully-actuated compass-like biped model to clarify the importance of ankle-joint torque introducing generalized virtual gravity concept. In the second, a planar underactuated biped model with semicircular feet is introduced and we show that virtual passive dynamic walking by hip-joint torque only can be realized based on the rolling effect. We then compare it with the flat-feet model through linear approximation, and show that the rolling effect is equivalent to its virtual ankle-joint torque. Throughout this paper, we give a novel approach to dynamic bipedal walking as ZMP-free robots.

    In this paper, we functionally distributed sensor network for rescue. It consists of base Rescue-Communicators with global mesh network, and client Rescue-Terminals with local hub network. Rescue-Terminals have microphone, speakers, network and cheap CPU, and gather victims' voice in rubble. Rescue-Communicator accumulates and shares the voices to other Communicators with mesh network. The functionally layered system allows to reduce the total system cost and network congestion compared to many Communicators with one mesh network.

    It is found from the locomotion of snake-like underwater robot using Ionic Polymer-Metal Composite (IPMC) as its actuator that, although we specify the same amplitude of driven voltages to each segmented IPMC unit, the resultant bending amplitudes along the body's progressive waves change from small to large toward the robot's tail. To analyze this phenomenon, which is also observed in locomotions of slender fishes, we discuss the modeling and analysis of bending motions of IPMC actuators using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Eigenfunction expansion technique is used to solve the model of a partial differential equation. The envelope curve can be drawn by the obtained solution, and simulation results reappear the same phenomenon. Deflection of the real robot is measured by video camera and laser beam. Experimental results verifies the validity of the proposed model. Parameter identification is also performed with measured data.

  • A Development of Intellectual Rescue Robot
    HATTORI Tsuyoshi, HIRANO Shinya, LUO Z.W., KATO Atsuo
    This paper describes on a first step development of self controlled rescue robot. In recent years, we were suffered from serious disaster caused by earthquakes, so we have to take all possible measure against large earthquakes. Many seismologists say some big earthquakes will occur within next thirty years, and then several active studies of rescue robots are developing now. Generally an operator of robot is required special operating skill, but in the field of disaster it will be difficult to look for a skilled operator. Therefore we are developing self controlled rescue robot works for finding a person under the collapsed building. In this study we intend to give some intelligence to our hand made rescue robot AIT-ReBo.1.As first step of that we achieved self configuration control to continue progressive motion of ReBo.1 when it turns over on its side using G-sensor. TV camera image on console display get from ReBo.1 is waving with progressive motion of it because it makes bending traveling wave on its body for propagation, then we made holding image system by synchronous selection of movie frame with TV camera angle. By the holding image system, we can see arbitrary angle images, and even if ReBo.1 turn over on its side we can see vertical images. Usually, the console operators intend to search sufferer in dark area on the camera images, then we made aerial brightness control imaging system.

    This paper studies the synchronization of network coupled systems consisting of many identical dynamic subsystems as well as network coupling with interaction time-delay. Based on graph theory and Lyapunov stability theory, the paper gives conditions for the total system synchronization and the boundedness of trajectories with respect to the graph structures of network coupling interaction. According to our study, it is revealed that, different from the systems without time-delay, (1) there will be a case where synchronization will occurs if the interaction strength and the number of the graph edges lie between some upper and lower bounds, (2) in regular graphs, such that complete-, star- and cycle graph, the synchronization conditon will be violated if total number of subsystems increases, (3) for the complex networks such as Small World Network and Scale Free Network, the synchronization conditon is more easier to be satisfied than regular graphs when the total number of subsystems increases.These are verified using numerical simulations.

    This paper studies a sensory-motor control mechanism of human's reaching movements from the perspective of robotics aspect. By formulating the musculo-skeletal redundant system which takes into account a nonlinear muscle property obtained by some physiological understandings, we suggest that the human-like reaching movements can be realized by using only simple task-space feedback scheme together with the internal force effect which comes from mechanical property of muscles without any complex mathematical computation such as an inverse dynamics or some optimal trajectory derivation. Firstly, we introduce both kinematics and dynamics of a three-link serial manipulator with six single-joint muscles and three double-joint muscles model whose movements are confined within a horizontal plane. Secondly, the nonlinear muscle property, which comes from several physiological understandings based on Hill's muscle model, is taken into consideration and illustrated by some numerical simulations that the end-point of the manipulator can converge to the desired point smoothly using only simple task-space feedback scheme by considering the muscle property and internal forces induced by the redundancy of muscles, which makes it possible to modulate the damping factors in joint-space, even if the system owns both kinematic and dynamic redundancies. Then we discuss the effectiveness of our control scheme, and suggest it as one direction to study brain-motor control mechanism of human movements.

    HIRANO Shinya, Zhiwei LUO, KATO Atsuo
    This paper describes an inchworm-type robot that we developed for the application of disaster relief, specially for searching victim. The robot we called AIT-ReBo1 has two types of modules, one is the head module that is equipped at the terminal of the robot's body with a small wireless camera and wireless network functions to communicate with outside, another module is the joint that has two rotational and a linear driven degrees of freedom with a decentralized controller module and energy source in a compact form. We pay attention to moving mechanism and realized the motion patterns such as moving straight, side and rotational movements like an inchworm by the progressive wave in body without using any wheels, or crawlers and legs. This robot has already successfully debut at the AICHI EXPO 2005 and stably played for about one month.

    It is clarified throughout studies of passive dynamic walking mechanisms that the common necessary condition for dynamic gait generation comes from the requirement on mechanical energy restoration. Until now we have treated only rotational joints of the robot, whereas in this paper we considers a novel dynamic gait generation method based on mechanical energy restoration by parametric excitation phenomenon using telescopic leg actuation. We first introduce a simple biped walking model and a control law for telescopic leg motion, and analyze the typical walking pattern with respect to the change of control and physical parameters by numerical simulations. We then numerically analyze the energy efficiency in the presence of an elastic element by introducing criterions, and show that suitable adjustment of mechanical impedance dramatically increases the energy efficiency. Further, some extensions of the mechanism and control applications are investigated.

    This paper proposes a novel adaptive control approach for a robot manipulator to track a desired force signal while interacting with its unknown dynamic environment. Based on the bio-mimetic studies of human motor control functions, we propose a 2 degree of freedom adaptive control approach. In this approach, both force feedback and feedforward controllers are involved in the robot's control system. The feedback control is set as constant while the feedforward controller is adjusted online adaptively to approach the inverse of the force control transfer function. Using this approach, exact force tracking without any loop delay can be realized. The effectiveness and problems of this control approach are studied through computer simulations and robot experiments.

  • Optimization of Circuit Elements for Piezoelectric Switching LR Shunt Damping Systems
    TAKAGI Kentaro, NAGASE Kenji, OSHIMA Kazuhiko, HAYAKAWA Yoshikazu, LUO Zhiwei, ICHIKAWA Hiroyuki
    Switching inductive shunt damping technique is one of the most useful methods for structural vibration control due to its simplicity and robustness. In this paper, a method to design the inductance and the resistance in the shunt circuit is discussed. Initial response and harmonic response are especially considered in the design method. The design method is validated by simulation. Furthermore, switching shunt damping applied for a multi degrees of freedom system is examined using an experimental plate.

  • Restoration of Blurred Moving Image for Abstracting A Moving Object
    AKIYAMA Kei, LUO Zhi-wei, ONISHI Masaki, HOSOE Shigeyuki
    Iterative optimal calculation methods have been proposed for blurred static image restoration based on the wavelet transformation. However, it is quite difficult to apply these methods to process moving images due to the high computation cost. In this paper, we propose an effective restoration method for blurred moving images by modeling the motion of a moving object and predicting the future object position. We verified our method by computer simulations to show that our method can dramatically reduce the computation time.

  • ヒトのクランク回転作業の最適運動規範
    太田憲, M.Svinin, 羅志偉, 細江繁幸
    ドアを開けたり,ハンドルを回すなどの拘束運動は,我々が日常経験する腕の運動である.拘束のない自由空間での運動と異なり,拘束運動では手先を通して環境との相互作用がある.その中でも,クランク回転運動は運動学的拘束条件のもとでのリーチング運動としてとらえることができる.本研究では,拘束運動としてクランク回転運動を取り上げ,最適化による運動計画モデルとして,手先力変化最小とトルク変化最小の二つの規範から構成される複合規範を提案する.クランク回転運動では,非拘束下のリーチング運動を再現する,躍度最小規範やトルク変化最小規範による予測よりも,複合規範によって予測された運動軌道と力軌道がヒトの実験データをよく再現した.このことは運動計画が腕やクランクのダイナミックスに関連して決定されることを示唆し,手先と外界との相互作用のある条件下では,作業空間と関節空間での両方の滑らかさが運動計画に求められていると考えられる.また,この運動規範は作業座標系の選択の仕方に依存していることから,ヒトは自然と拘束座標系を運動規範の座標系として選択していると考えられる.

    Recently, aging society becomes serious problem. In this research, pays attention to the wheelchair from among welfare and medical equipment which is "Foot" for the physically handicapped person and the senior citizen. The following two systems were constructed for that User Interface which can single-step wheelchair certainly and easily and Autonomous running and obstacle avoidance function to reduce complex operation. We use indoors camera (global camera) and camera on the wheelchair (local part camera) in a different usage. The operator clicks the global camera image projected onto the operator computer for the display and converts the chick point to local coordinate system by operator's computer. Then computed rate vector to reach the target point and transmit to the autonomous wheelchair. The note type computer that loaded wheelchair controls wheelchair to tend target point along to the rate vector. In this time, the local camera always monitor safety area forward of the wheelchair. If wheelchair invades no safety areas, wheelchair is stopped. This system was conferred by experiment to control wheelchair using global and local camera information.

    This paper studies the synchronization of network coupled systems consisting of many identical dynamic subsystems as well as network coupling with interaction time-delay. Based on graph theory and Lyapunov stability theory, the paper gives two sufficient conditions for the total system synchronization with respect to the graph structures of network coupling interaction, one is delay-independent and the other is the delay-dependent. These two conditions are compared with Wu's research, which was established without taking interaction time-delays into account. Simulations with two examples show the influences of the interaction timedelay as well as graph structures on the overall synchronization of subsystems.

  • Local computation of optical flow for Silicon Retina
    AKIYAMA Kei, LUO Zhi-wei, HOSOE Shigeyuki, YAGI Tetsuya, ONISHI Masaki
    In this paper, we propose a parallel computation algorithm for obtaining optical flow by utilizing the specific architecture and functions of the Silicon Retina developed by Yagi et al. The Silicon Retina we used has two kinds of outputs, one is the V2G edge enhancement image and another is the frame subtraction image. In our approach, we first detect the moving edges of a object based on these two images. We then calculate the tangent direction velocity of the moving edges by measuring the local maximums from the frame subtraction image and the spatial gradients from an edge enhancement image with respect to the moving edges. Experiments of our algorithms using the Silicon Retina and a computer are performed and the favorable results are obtained.

  • Control Characteristics of an Automatic Matching Control System for In Vivo EPR Spectroscopy
    H. Hirata, Y. Yamaguchi, T. Takahashi, Zhiwei LUO
    A method for estimating the characteristics of an automatic matching control (AMC) system for in vivo electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is described. AMC is also known as automatic coupling control (ACC) and is used to compensate for perturbation due to movement of the subject animal. The open-loop function of the AMC system is derived and the characteristics (gain, phase margin, steady-state error, system bandwidth, and disturbance rejection) of the system are examined. The proposed method is supported by experimental findings. The frequency response of perturbation due to the movement of an anesthetized rat was measured with a 1.1-GHz continuous-wave EPR spectrometer. Disturbance rejection with the AMC system was also considered for respiratory motion and the heartbeat of the anesthetized rat, and these perturbations were reduced by about 40 dB in the power spectrum of the output of the diode detector in the spectrometer.

    Locomotion of animals is said to be generated by CPG that is located at lower level of the nervous systerrl. We deal with an application of autonomous decentralized system like CPG to a myriapod locomotion robot. In this paper, we confirm by computer simulation that six subsystems generate gait pattern by the method of vector quantizat ion (VQ) under the conditions that each subsystem only have functions for controlling one leg and using local informations. The gate pattern is coded to the phase differences of each oscillator. Each subsystem learns a relation between the energy consumption and the phase difference using VQ. We succeeded in generating the gait pattern such that the energy consumptions for each leg are averaged.

    Animals change their gait patterns with environmental conditions. The adaptive changes of gait patterns can be observed in the experiment where a decerebrate cat was forced to walk on the treadmill. This experiment suggests that cats should memorize the locomotion pattern and adjust it in adaptation process. From this point of view, we control the quadruped walking robot to behave adaptively on the treadmill like this cat. For the control and adaptation law, we take the decentralized approach: each four limb is regarded as subsystem, and pattern generation and adaptation is achieved with only the local interaction among four subsystems. Such a system structure is supposed to be important on the adaptability and flexibility.

  • Learning of coodinate rhythmic movement and it's transformation to unconscious movement
    OHTA Ken, LUO Zhi-Wei
    There are two different types of human movements. One is conscious movement and another is the unconscious movement. The conscious movement can be transformed into unconscious movement through repetitive training. This kind of transformation can not only reduced the load of high level brain organization, but also makes it possible to realize high skillful movement with in lower reflex level. Biological studies suggested that such kind of function in brain have deep relations with basal ganglia. In this research, we study this unconsciousness of movement by using the experiment on human coordination rhythmic movement.

    This paper considers an adaptation of rhythmic movements to changes in environments. Perturbed locomotion has been proposed as a new paradigm of motion learning. Here, we formulate this phenomenon with CPG model and give a rule for parameter changing in locomotion patterns. Our rule is derived from a criterion that less interaction is more natural in CPG oscillation. Then extending our approach, we discuss general features and necessary conditions for rhythmic motion and propose a mathematical framework for its adaptation.

    人間は未知な作業環境との複雑な相互作用の中で環境拘束に適応し, 作業スキルを獲得することによって巧みな運動を実現している.本研究はクランク回転作業を取り上げ, 環境拘束における人間の運動機能解析を行う.クランク回転運動では, 被験者は回転方向に対象物のダイナミックスの影響を受け, また半径方向に対象物の幾何学的拘束を受ける.実験ではさまざまな環境特性を実現するように, クランクの回転軸にACサーボモータを取り付け, クランク半径など環境の不確かさを作り出すために, 被験者にヘッドマントディスプレイを装着させた.その結果, クランク回転方向の粘性によって回転角速度のパターンが異なることがわかり, これを操作力楕円体の観点から解析した.また, 「生体における運動計画が作業環境のダイナミックスとは無関係に行われている」というShadmehrらの主張を否定した.更に, 初心者は確実に作業を遂行するようクランクを引っ張り, 熟練が進むにつれ, むしろ意図的に系の不安定性を利用し, クランクを押して効率的に作業を実現することを明らかにし, これをリンク間の内力と系全体の安定性との関係から考察した.

    This paper studies position/force hybrid control of a robot manipulator to interact with its uncertain flexible object. Because of its flexibility, the object dynamics will influence the robot's control system, and since it is a distributed parameter system, the object dynamics as seen from the robot's end-effector will change when the robot moves on its different locations. In this paper, the variation of the object dynamics as seen from the robot end-effector is formulated as an uncertain linear parameter-varying system (ULPV). Gain scheduled control is developed for controlling this kind of uncertain system. It is found, although the robot's position control loop is not influenced by the contact force, the robot's moving velocity influences the solution of the force control system's Riccati equation, which was used in constructing the system's force control input. Therefore, the position control loop should be designed with respect to the force control loop. Computer simulations show the effectiveness of our control approach.

    In this paper, we present a new compliance control strategy for a robot manipulator to interact with its uncertain environment. Our strategy considers the manipulability explicitly in designing the robot's compliance. Computer simulations of the crank rotation task show that, our approach results in smaller interaction forces and better positional accuracy compared to the conventional compliance control.

    This paper studies on the control of robot to perform compliant manipulation on unknown dynamic environments. Compliant manipulation fundamentally requires robot to adapt for environment dynamics. For robot manipulators to be succeeded in performing such manipulation, it's already known that control of position or force alone is inadequate. Focused on the input-output responses of both position and force of the robot control system, we have proposed a model matching approach. In this approach, both for the selection of reference model and the design of force feedback compensator, the accurate information on environment dynamics was needed. However practically, in most of the robot's contact tasks, we never know the environment dynamics or only know the bounds of its parameters before exiting the task.
    In this paper, by studying the most unfavourable environment dynamics for robot's compliance, the digital simulator for continuous linear dynamic environment, we try to give out an algorithm for robot manipulators to adapt for the unknown environment dynamics autonomously during the manipulation. A setup of experimental system of one degree of freedom robot and environment has also been made to study various of control approaches for robot's pushing manipulation on dynamic environment. Experiment results show the effectiveness of our design approach.

    In this paper, we study on hierarchical control structure of multi-D. O. F. manipulator to perform compliant manipulation on dynamic objects. We propose that in order to realize the real time fast computation of the joint control torques, it is better to calculate the joints angle terms with low sampling frequency at high level, and compute the lefted control torques including joints velocities and linear compensation with high sampling frequency at low level. Such hierarchical structure is demonstrated by the simulation of a 2-D. O. F arm pushing on a dynamic door. Simulation results also shows the effectiveness of the model matching method that was used in the linear force feedback compensator design, compared with impedance control.

    This paper considers the problems of control design of robot performing compliant manipulation.
    Compliant manipulation fundamentally requires that the controlled robot can not only follow up the input trajectory exactly in free motion space, but also move adaptively in constrained space while making compliant contact with its dynamic environment. However generally, since there exists no mechanical link between robot and its operating environment, because of the dynamic interaction, the contact discontinuity may probably cause. So even if the total system including robot and its environment is analyzed to be stable when thinking of nothing on such contact discontinuity, the real system may be unstable.
    In this paper, with the formulation of environment dynamics, the simplification of robot body dynamics by nonlinear feedback compensation, and the definition of compliancy and environment adaptability that clarifies the control design objectives, we present a model matching approach for the control design of robot compliant manipulation considering the contact discontinuity.
    The problems of how to select the reference model considering the environment dynamics, its dynamic uncertainty and robot actuator's output limitation, and how to implement such model in the control system are analyzed.
    Also the effectiveness of this approach is illustrated by some simulation results.

  • An Uniform Observing Method in the Analysis of Linear Electric Network Including Active Elements
    Luo Zhiwei, Kato Atsuo
    This paper studied lumped linear electric network including active elements. By definition of self-parameter matrix ([Y'], [Z']), mutual-parameter marix ([G], [R]) and a uniform selection of directed branch, we find that the parameter matrix of electric network including active elements ([Y], [Z]) is equal to the sum of ([Y'], [Z']) and ([G], [R]), and because ([Y'], [Z']), ([G], [R]) can be obtained just by observation, it made us very easy to get the parameter matrix of electric network ([Y], [Z]), so the analysis of this kind of circuit become much simple. It may be useful in the design of LSI with CAD. Also, two special cases have been risen to make attention when using the theorems of this paper. The computer simulation of electric network making application of this method will be hopeful.

    In this paper we study the performance of contact tasks by a robot manipulator on flexible objects. The flexible object's distributed parameter model is approximated as a lumped "position state-varying" model. By using nonlinear feedback compensation, the robot's control space is decomposed into the position control subspace and the object's force control subspace. An optimal state feedback is designed for the position loop, and the robot's contact force is controlled using model-reference simple adaptive control. Experiments using a PUMA robot interacting with an aluminum plate show the effectiveness of this control approach.

  • Lite Hourglass Network for Multi-person Pose Estimation
    Ying Zhao, Zhiwei Luo, Changqin Quan, Dianchao Liu, Gang Wang
    MULTIMEDIA MODELING (MMM 2020), PT II, 2020, English, SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, Recent multi-person pose estimation networks rely on sequential downsampling and upsampling procedures to capture multi-scale features and stacking basic modules to reassess local and global contexts. However, the network parameters become huge and difficult to be trained under limited computational resource. Motived by this observation, we design a lite version of Hourglass module that uses hybrid convolution blocks to reduce the number of parameters while maintaining performance. The hybrid convolution block builds multi-context paths with dilated convolutions with different rates which not only reduces the number of parameters but also enlarges the receptive field. Moreover, due to the limitation of heatmap representation, the networks need extra and non-differentiable post-processing to convert heatmaps to keypoint coordinates. Therefore, we propose a simple and efficient operation based on integral loss to fill this gap specifically for bottom-up pose estimation methods. We demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves better performance than the baseline methods on the challenge benchmark MSCOCO dataset for multi-person pose estimation.

  • Improvement of Multi-body Simulation Model for Comparative Study of Cervical Traction Therapy – Comparison between Inclined and Sitting Traction
    L. K, F. Wong, LUO Zhi-Wei, N. Kurusu, K. Fujino
    Proc. of 2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics, Dec. 2018, English, IEEE, A computer simulation model was developed to study the behavior of the cervical spine during cervical traction therapy in inclined and sitting traction positions. The model improved upon an old model with additional components to represent the behavior of the intervertebral discs and the posterior ligaments. The simulation result of the new model was compared against the cervical traction data from a radiographic experiment in both positions. The simulation results of the old model and new model were compared to illustrate the improvement. Using the new model, we compared the timing response of cervical traction in the inclined and sitting positions.

  • Unsupervised online learning for fine-grained hand segmentation in egocentric video
    Ying Zhao, Zhiwei Luo, Changqin Quan
    2017 14TH CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER AND ROBOT VISION (CRV 2017), 2017, English, IEEE, Hand segmentation is one of the most fundamental and crucial steps for egocentric human-computer interaction. The special egocentric view brings new challenges to hand segmentation task, such as the unpredictable environmental conditions. The performance of traditional hand segmentation methods depend on abundant manually labeled training data. However, these approaches do not appropriately capture the whole properties of egocentric human-computer interaction for neglecting the user-specific context. It is only necessary to build a personalized hand model of the active user. Based on this observation, we propose an online-learning hand segmentation approach without using manually labeled data for training. Our approach consists of top-down classifications and bottom-up optimizations. More specifically, we divide the segmentation task into three parts, a frame-level hand detection which detects the presence of the interactive hand using motion saliency and initializes hand masks for online learning, a superpixel-level hand classification which coarsely segments hand regions from which stable samples are selected for next level, and a pixel-level hand classification which produces a fine-grained hand segmentation. Based on the pixel-level classification result, we update the hand appearance model and optimize the upper layer classifier and detector. This online-learning strategy makes our approach robust to varying illumination conditions and hand appearances. Experimental results demonstrate the robustness of our approach.

  • A Novel Approach for Assessing Prospective Memory using Immersive Virtual Reality Task
    Dong Dong, Lawrence K. F. Wong, Zhiwei Luo, Changqin Quan
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2016, English, IEEE, Prospective memory can maintain our ability to living independently, which is important for our daily lives. Evaluation of prospective memory can be reflecting the severity of cognitive ability regression. Previous studies developed slide-based task and living-based task to evaluate prospective memory performance in different conditions. However, as a new technology that can provide a more realistic environment, immersive virtual reality is not yet used in this area. Our study first uses immersive virtual reality technology to develop a more real-life like test environment. As a result, by comparing with slide-based task, our VR task can show some potential to evaluate the perspective memory in daily life condition more accurately.

  • Analysis of Human Autonomic Nervous Activity Based on Big Data Measurement Via SmartPhone

    2016 IEEE 14TH INTL CONF ON DEPENDABLE, AUTONOMIC AND SECURE COMPUTING, 14TH INTL CONF ON PERVASIVE INTELLIGENCE AND COMPUTING, 2ND INTL CONF ON BIG DATA INTELLIGENCE AND COMPUTING AND CYBER SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY CONGRESS (DASC/PICOM/DATACOM/CYBERSC, 2016, English, IEEE, This study used a large amount of autonomic nervous system data to investigate the relationship between autonomic nervous system and activity, day of the week, and region. Data was measured via a heart rate variability analysis system that utilizes the camera of smartphones [8]. This system was developed by the authors during previous research. As for as the relationship between autonomic nervous system and activity, total power and sympathetic nervous activity were found to rise after waking, while during leisure time, it was found that total power rises and sympathetic nervous activity is inhibited. Concerning the relationship between autonomic nervous system and day of the week, it was found that total power decreases from the middle through the latter part of the week (namely, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday), while it rises on Saturday. What's more, sympathetic nervous activity is suppressed on Saturday. Regarding the relationship between autonomic nervous system and region, it was found that total power is lower in the Kanto region than in others. Regarding weather conditions, the results showed a trend in which a significant decrease was seen in sympathetic nervous activity the higher the temperature. In addition, a significant increase was seen in the sympathetic nervous system the higher the atmospheric pressure. Lastly, a significant decrease was seen in the sympathetic nervous system the more precipitation there was. These results accord with prior research and with human biological phenomena, and we were able to use big data to statistically demonstrate our hypothesis.

  • Human-Robot Coordination Stability for Fall Detection and Prevention Using Cane Robot
    Qingyang Yan, Jian Huang, Zhiwei Luo
    2016 INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON MICRO-NANOMECHATRONICS AND HUMAN SCIENCE (MHS), 2016, English, IEEE, A cane-type walking-aid robot with a ball joint is developed for assisting old people's walking. Considering both the overturn of robot and the stability of human user, this paper presents a new concept of Human-Robot Coordination Stability (HRCS) which can describe the stability of the integrated human-robot system during the user operating the cane robot. HRCS is characterized by a stability region generated from the user's stability measured by posture information and the robot stability obtained by Force-Angle (FA) measure method. If the human-robot system runs out of the stability region, the fall tendency is then detected. To guarantee the safety of both the user and robot, a fall prevention control strategy is also proposed. The fall prevention control is executed to ensure the system staying in the stability region when any fall tendency is detected. Finally, we conducted experiments in real cane robot and the results illustrate the validity of the fall detection and prevention method.

  • Comparative Experiment and Dynamic Simulation on Cervical Traction Therapy
    Lawrence K. F. Wong, Zhiwei Luo, Nobuyuki Kurusu, Keiji Fujino
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2016, English, IEEE, This study aims to verify the accuracy of a cervical traction therapy simulation model by comparing the intervertebral separations of six normal male adults when traction applied to their cervical spines. The subjects were tested on two mechanical traction devices, representing the inclined and sitting positions. Radiographic images of their cervical spines were taken before, during and after traction. The observed changes of the cervical spine were used as input to adjust parameters of the traction therapy model, which contains a cervical spine built with springs and dampers and two traction devices in inclined and sitting positions. A series of traction forces and traction angles were applied to the model to simulate the actual parameters used in the experiment and the new model was used to evaluate the two traction positions. The result suggests that inclined position not only creates greater intervertebral separations on the posterior sides, it also provides a more accurate and smoother transition when switching between different traction angles.

  • Passive Velocity Field Control of a Redundant Cable-Driven Robot with Tension Limitations
    Sheng Cao, Zhiwei Luo, Changqin Quan
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2016, English, IEEE, This paper proposes a novel dynamic control approach for a cable driven robot with high redundant actuation and cable tension limitations to perform tracking task while interacting with environment. In order for a cable-driven exoskeleton robot to execute the task smoothly and safely, it is necessary to consider the tracking motion performance as well as passivity when interacting with the environment under the conditions of the actuation cables' redundancy and the pulling limitation. With the additional consideration of the maximum limitation of the cable tension, cable-driven robot actually can only apply a certain range of feasible wrench on the external environment, which makes the task executed by robot be restricted. In order to make designed wrench be feasible and keep the desired trajectory tracking ability, we present a new control method by extending passive velocity field control (PVFC) method considering tracking stability and passivity. The approach augmented a higher dimensional virtual flywheel dynamics in a specific orthogonal complement space of the cable's actuation space. After the final adjustment of the designed wrench with respect to the cable's constraint, this method is capable of driving the cable robot to complete the trajectory tracking task and realize the passivity.

  • Non-contact, Real-time Monitoring of Heart Rate with a Webcam with Application during Water-Bed Massage
    Akihito Seki, Changqin Quan, Zhiwei Luo
    2016 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2016, English, IEEE, Techniques for measuring physiological signals are gathering a lot of attention in recent years. In many cases, the techniques require to make direct contact between the physiological signal sensors with the subject's skin. Several studies were proposed to measure heart rate (HR) with standard web cameras under the condition that the subject is keeping the quiescent state. In this paper, we propose a new technique for measuring HR which allows the subject head movements during water-bed massage. For comparison purpose, HR was measured simultaneously using an electrocardiography (ECG) device during all sessions of the experiment. The result shows that our proposed technique is able to improve the accuracy of HR measurement and reduce the processing time to nearly one-third of the existing method. Our approach could be beneficial for applications that require real-time HR monitoring during subject's head is moving.

We developed a task set named "Atama-no-dojo," designed to activate multiple cognitive functions and enhance motivational incentives. The objective of our study is to confirm the effect of our program through a 6 months group intervention program. The intervention program conducted in a day service center for 6 months in the duration of 45 minutes per day, 4 days per month for a total of 25 sessions. Participants worked to the tasks on the screen all together with filling in the answering sheet. Neuropsychological tests, SF36 and GDS were assessed at pre-/post-intervention periods. Participants filled in a questionnaire about impression to the program at the last training session. Fourteen women (82.2 +/- 2.9 years old) were analyzed and significant changes were found in the improvement of memory, attention, inhibition, GDS and some items of SF36. All participants recognized the program as fun and wanted to continue. Some of the participants' positive impressions to the program correlated to cognitive improvement. The improved cognitive functions by 6 months intervention of "Atama-no-dojo" were mainly related to prefrontal cortex and the motivational incentives seemed supported the effect of task contents. We recognized the importance of task difficulty setting and motivational incentives to reduce frustration from working on difficult tasks and enhance the effects of improvement from activating brain function.

  • Estimation of an Object's Physical Parameter by Force Sensors of a Dual-arm Robot
    Sheng Cao, Zhiwei Luo, Changqin Quan
    2015 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2015, English, IEEE, We are developing a Nursing-Care Robot in order to reduce the load in physical nursing care. The concept of this robot is to promote the cared persons by the robot to activate their own motion ability as long as possible. This may lead to the improvement of the cared person's movement volition and movement abilities. In order to realize safe and human friendly robot care tasks, full body manipulation is an important technology, for which it is necessary to estimate the subject's center of gravity from the contact positions and forces with the robot's two arms. In this paper, we estimate the center of gravity of object based on the contact point and the contact force estimated by force sensor on both robot arms. The position of gravity center is important to realize care tasks stably. We performed experiments and simulations for the single point contact and dual points contact cases using a cylindrical object. As a result, it is found that although some errors were recognized in the experiments compared with the simulations, the relations between the contact positions and such errors were observed. Such experimental error mainly comes from the difference of shape between the real robot and the model of the robot in simulation. As the future work, we have to improve the robot model so as to get better estimated information.

  • Wearable EEG-based Human Intention Detection and Its Application in Human Care-Robot Systems
    Shota Terada, Zhiwei Luo
    2015 54TH ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE SOCIETY OF INSTRUMENT AND CONTROL ENGINEERS OF JAPAN (SICE), 2015, English, IEEE, This research developed a wearable EEG-based brain robot interface (WE-BRI) which detects the human subject's intention using steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) and is applied in the food care tasks of robots. In detail, five types of visual stimuli with different frequencies are displayed on the different locations of a PC monitor. The human subject can select his/her intended food by focusing on a related specific visual stimulus for several seconds. A wearable EEG sensor then measures the subject's EEG and followed by on line frequency analysis. From the frequency analysis, the robot can detect the human subject's intention within limited time and can perform the task to move the related food to the subject. In this research, 5 health subjects are tested using this WE-BRI. It is found that in order to increase the success rate of intention detection, the subject should focus on a specific visual stimulus for more than 4 seconds. The highest success rate of the detection can reach to 92%. The developed WE-BRI is also expected to be applied in wider range of robotic human care tasks.

    Yuki Hayashi, Masanobu Homma, Zhiwei Luo
    2015 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS (ROBIO), 2015, English, IEEE, This research studies optimal swimming movement, specifically it focuses on the optimal kick timing during dolphin style swimming. In the rule of Breast Stroke Style, it is allowed to hit one dolphin kick during underwater movement. Until December 2014, we couldn't do dolphin kick before hands start to move. Now, dolphin kick can be performed at any time by the rule amendment. In this research, we modeled this style of movement and searched for optimum timing of dolphin kick. We used computational simulation model called SWUM (SWimming hUman Model). From the simulation results, we got the conclusion that we should do dolphin kick 0.4 seconds faster than hands move. In addition, we indicate the timing affects the body posture. These results agree with the current top swimmer's timing.

  • On Energy-based Robust Passive Impedance Control of a Robot Manipulator
    Sheng Cao, Zhi-Wei Luo
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MECHANISM SCIENCE AND CONTROL ENGINEERING (MSCE 2014), 2014, English, DESTECH PUBLICATIONS, INC, Passivity is an important requirement for a robot to interact with human or other dynamic environments stably and safely as in robotic rehabilitations. Considering the time-varying objective impedance center, under the condition that the robot's dynamics is known, previous research has already proposed a passive impedance control approach which adjusts a scaling parameter of the robot's desired velocity with respect to the robot's mechanic energy so as to maintain the robot's passivity. In this research, we future take into account of the robot's dynamical model uncertainties and propose a robust passive impedance control. Computer simulations of a 2-link manipulator interacting with a dynamic wall show the effectiveness of our robust control approach.

    2014 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS IEEE-ROBIO 2014, 2014, English, IEEE, Two-Step Test is now widely used to evaluate the locomotion ability of human in Japanese biomechanical clinical hospitals. It is a test in which Two-Step Value is calculated by dividing a subject's height by the maximum distance of his/her two steps of walking. The test was developed by Hirano and Muranaga in 2003 to conveniently predict human's walking ability and is shown to have high relations with the other existing human locomotion evaluation approaches. However, this test has not been studied so far from the viewpoint of biomechanics. This study examined and analyzed the Two-Step Test using motion capture and musculoskeletal model. Based on the analysis results, we clarified many differences between subjects with different two step values.

    Lawrence K. F. Wong, Zhiwei Luo, Nobuyuki Kurusu
    2014 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS IEEE-ROBIO 2014, 2014, English, IEEE, This research describes the construction of a mechanical cervical traction therapy simulation using a physics software engine. The model consisted of an anatomically correct human skeleton and two types of mechanical traction devices, each representing a unique traction position. While most of the movement in the skeleton simulation model was represented by simple hinges and ball-socket joints, the cervical spine was controlled by a spring-damper model to try to mimic its actual behavior in the human body. By varying the traction force, traction angle, and traction position in the simulation, the efficacy of the sitting and inclined traction was evaluated by comparing the anterior and posterior intervertebral separations each achieved. The simulation results suggested that the inclined position creates greater intervertebral separations on both the anterior and posterior sides than the sitting position. Our findings may serve as a reference for practitioners and medical equipment designers where cervical traction therapy is applied.

  • Early Neurological Markers for Unconscious Detection of Bitter and Sour Taste for Investigating Taste Preferences
    Chenghong Hu, Yoshitada Katagiri, Yoshiko Kato, Zhiwei Luo
    Communications in Computer and Information Science, 2014, English, Springer Verlag, To clarify the intrinsic food preference mechanism, we investigated neurophysiological responses to unpleasant gustatory stimuli using electroencephalogram (EEG) and near-infrared hemoencepalogram (NIR-HEG) simultaneously. A conventional delayed response task paradigm was performed in the experiment. Results showed excessive evoked EEG potentials in both bitter and sour responses, but not in purified water which was a control condition. Therefore we suggested that these potentials would be only attributed to gustatory stimuli. As these potentials appeared before P3, we considered that they are unconscious electrophysiological early markers for attention. We also identified contingent negative variation (CNV) in a late stage for sour stimulus and corresponding clear P3. In addition, NIR-HEG responses showed a rise for every stimulus and, in particular, bitterness gave larger rise than sourness. In spite of limitation to timing accuracy of taste presentations, the early markers found in this study could be fundamentals for investigating individual food preference. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014.

  • Accelerating Water Molecular Simulation with RMD
    Yumi Kashihara, Akinori Nagano, Zhiwei Luo
    FOURTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS, MODELLING AND SIMULATION (ISMS 2013), 2013, English, IEEE, Molecular Dynamics method(MD) has been used for simulations of the structure and dynamics of soft matter, biological molecules, fluid and more. However, the calculation cost has been a major bottleneck. Coarse-grained molecular dynamics is one of the most popular methods to accelerate the simulation, and this method is especially used for simulations of biological molecules. Though water is usually used as the solvent in the simulation of biological molecules, it takes a lot of computational cost to simulate the water because of its coulomb force and three-dimensional structure. In this study, we propose the new coarse-grained method for water molecular simulation based of Renormalization Molecular Dynamics method(RMD). We derive the radial distribution functions at 298[K] and at 220[K] to compare with results of all-atom MD. Then, we got similar results with all-atom MD simulation and it was 24 times faster than all-atom MD.

    Proc. of IEEE/SICE International Symposium on System Integration, 2013, English, IEEE, This research describes the construction of a biomechanical simulation model of the cervical spine for traction therapy analysis. By building a 3D computer model of the musculoskeletal cervical spine region using a physics-based software environment, we were able to calculate and visualize the changes of the cervical vertebrae and intervertebral discs due to external traction applied during a traction therapy. Since the mechanical parameters of the simulation, such as bone sizes and masses, can be easily adjusted in the computer model, it allows us to match the simulation based on actual data from patient in the traction therapy.

  • Contribution of Lower Extremity Joint Moment on Ground Reaction Force during Walking in Elderly and Younger People
    Haruki Toda, Akinori Nagano, Zhiwei Luo
    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, Antero-posterior ground reaction forces are the driving forces affecting walking speed. This study examined the relation between hip, knee, and ankle joint moment and the production of antero-posterior ground reaction forces during walking in the elderly and younger individuals. Forty elderly people, >= 65 years old, and 40 younger people, 20 to 29 years old, participated in this study. Gait analyses involved measurement of the ground reaction forces as well as calculation of hip, knee, and ankle joint moment. A stepwise linear regression analysis determined joint moment that can predict the amplitude of the antero-posterior ground reaction force. Extension moment during early stance of the knee was related to the posterior component of ground reaction force in elderly men, whereas hip and knee joint moments were related to the generation of the antero-posterior ground reaction forces in younger men. Moment of the hip and ankle were related to these forces in the elderly women. On the other hand, moment of the knee was related to generation of these forces in young women. Our results suggest differences between the elderly and the younger individuals with regard to the joints used for production of the antero-posterior ground reaction forces.

  • Cooperative Stochastic Position Estimation of Multiple Mobile Robots Equipped with Omnidirectional Cameras
    Kosuke Sasahara, Akinori Nagano, Zhiwei Luo
    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, This paper proposes the cooperative position estimation of a group of mobile robots, which performs disaster relief tasks in a wide area. When searching the wide area, it becomes important to know a robot's position correctly. However, each mobile robot is impossible to know its own position correctly. Therefor each mobile robot estimates its position from the data of sensor equipped on it. Generally, the sensor data is incorrect since there is sensor noise, etc. This research considers two types of the sensor data error from omnidirectional camera. One is the error of white noise of the image captured by omnidirectional camera and so on. Another is the error of a position and posture between two omnidirectional cameras. To solve the error of latter case, we proposed a self- position estimation algorithm for multiple mobile robots using two omnidirectional cameras and an accelerometer. On the other hand, to solve the error of the former case, this paper proposed an algorithm of cooperative position estimation for multiple mobile robots. In this algorithm, each mobile robot uses two omnidirectional cameras to observe the surrounding mobile robot and get the relative position between mobile robots. Each mobile robot estimates its position with only measurement data of each other mobile robots. The algorithm is based on a Bayesian filtering. Simulations of the proposed cooperative position estimation algorithm for multiple mobile robots are performed. The results show that position estimation is possible by using only measurement value from each other robot.

  • Development of a Robot System for Rehabilitation of Upper Limbs Cooperative Movement Functions
    Kazuki Nishida, Zhiwei Luo, Akinori Nagano
    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, Upper limbs cooperative movement functions are very important in our everyday life. Due to many kinds of brain diseases, people usually reduced or even lost their half side of body activities, which made it difficult to realize cooperative movements between right and left limbs. In this research, we developed a novel robot system, integrated with virtual reality technologies to perform rehabilitation of upper limbs cooperative movement functions, such as to realize simultaneous upper limbs motions or to cooperatively catch and setting a common object in 3D space. Three types of rehabilitation movements are designed so that the subject can train their each arm along as well as cooperative movements with game style. The motion trajectories as well as the contact forces with objects of the subjects are automatically recorded so as to evaluate the performance of rehabilitation.

  • Motion Sickness Due to Vibration on Water Massage Bed
    Akihito Seki, Zhiwei Luo
    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, In recent years, water massage bed which can provide full body massage effect is often used in physiotherapy. Compared to other physiotherapy equipment, water massage bed is particularly useful in the fact that it can directly massage the destined area on the subject, thus leads to improvement in relieving muscle strain and provides a psychological relaxation effect. However, motion sickness symptoms such as dizziness or nausea have been reported as side effects after using the bed. In this study, we evaluate the massage effect on the human body by measuring and analyzing the mechanical movements of the body during the massage using an accelerometer and a laser range finder.

  • On Energy-based Robust Passive Control of a Robot Manipulator
    Sheng Cao, Zhiwei Luo
    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, This research proposes a novel robust passive control approach for a robot manipulator with model uncertainties to interact with its dynamic environment by considering the robot's mechanic energy. Here, we analyze the robot's robust passivity as seen from its environment. By adjusting a scaling parameter of the robot's desired velocity with respect to the robot's mechanic energy, we propose our robust passive control approach. We also perform computer simulations to show the effectiveness of our approach. In the simulation, we studied three cases where the robot has no model error, or its model has errors. As the results, it is found that the previous robust position tracking control may loss passivity to the external force. However, by adjust the robot's desired velocity as in our approach, we can realize the robot's passivity even when the robot has mode errors. The applications of our control approach are expected be used in those robots that are required to make safe physical interaction with human.

    2013 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2013, English, IEEE, In our society, we cannot avoid facing the problem of burdening the huge stress which occurs in our daily life. It is very dangerous if people under the colossal pressure all the time because it may lead to diseases. There are plenty of ways can help people to reduce the stress condition and as common sense, deep breath is one of the ways. Because people cannot notice the respiration condition all the time in daily life, a wearable respiration sensor is needed to help people to monitor the respiration condition. A sensor which is a kind of polymer sheet used in the experiment and from which get the information we need. According to the results of the experiment, the respiration rate, the relationship between output of the voltage and ventilation, the method separating the status of people including sitting, standing, walking and sleeping was known. These consequences have already supplied enough information help to judge the condition of the subjects and evaluate whether they had any problems.

    6TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFT COMPUTING AND INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS, AND THE 13TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ADVANCED INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS, 2012, English, IEEE, Recently, the numbers of physically handicapped persons and higher brain dysfunctions are increasing in our super-aging society. Rehabilitative training or cognitive training has been studied. Now, more and more studies show that the motivation is important for the effect of such trainings. We focused on the brain function measurement and the technique of Brain-Computer Interface(BCI). We hypothesized that brain activity can be used as new indicators to set an appropriate task difficulty for patients. We measured the subjects' brain activities during tasks using Near-InfraRed Spectroscopy (NIRS). We found that difficult or easy tasks can be determined by the brain activities. We developed a system that changes the difficulty level of the task according to the results of the discrimination of brain activities during tasks. The system can be beneficial for patients to perform cognitive training more effectively.

    2012 8TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTING AND NETWORKING TECHNOLOGY (ICCNT, INC, ICCIS AND ICMIC), 2012, English, IEEE, This paper presents a new motion planning method of a multi-vehicle system in which vehicles can mutually measure the location of other vehicles when distances between vehicles are close. The mutual measurement method reduces uncertainty of location estimation by providing additional information. We propose a motion planning method based on the existence of maximal distance of mutual measurement. We formulate a multi-vehicle system with some disturbance and a new hybrid measurement model. The new model is a hybrid of maximal distance of mutual measurement and Kalman filter. The receding horizon control method is shown to be applicable to the new hybrid measurement model. We demonstrate the validity of our new hybrid measurement model in computer simulation.

  • The Self-position Estimate Algorithm of the Multiple Mobile Robots which Equipped Two Omnidirectional Cameras and An Accelerometer
    Kosuke Sasahara, Akinori Nagano, ZhiWei Luo
    2012 IEEE/SICE INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON SYSTEM INTEGRATION (SII), 2012, English, IEEE, This paper proposes a self-position estimate algorithm for the multiple mobile robots, each robot uses two omnidirectional cameras and an accelerometer. In recent years, in Japan, the Great East Japan Earthquake and large-scale disasters have occurred frequently. From this, development of the searching robot which supports the rescue team to perform a relief activity at a large-scale disaster is indispensable. Then, this research has developed the searching robot group system with two or more mobile robots. In this research, the searching robot equips two omnidirectional cameras and an accelerometer. In order to perform distance measurement using two omnidirectional cameras, each parameter of an omnidirectional camera and the position and posture between two omnidirectional cameras have to be calibrated in advance. If there are few mobile robots, the calibration time of each omnidirectional camera does not pose a problem. However, if the calibration is separately performed when using two or more robots in a disaster site etc., it will take huge calibration time. Then, this paper proposed the algorithm which estimates a mobile robot's position and the parameter of the position and posture between two omnidirectional cameras simultaneously. The algorithm proposed in this paper extended Nonlinear Transformation (NLT) Method. This paper conducted the simulation experiment to check the validity of the proposed algorithm. In some simulation experiments, one mobile robot moves and observes the circumference of another mobile robot which has stopped at a certain place. This paper verified whether the mobile robot can estimate position using the measurement value when the number of observation times becomes 10 times in pi/18 of observation intervals. The result of the simulation shows the effectiveness of the algorithm.

  • 1A2-1 Target Trajectory Design of Parametrically Excited Inverted Pendulum for Efficient Bipedal Walking
    HONJO Toyoyuki, HAYASHI Takeshi, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhi-Wei
    FAN Symposium : Intelligent System Symposium-fuzzy, AI, neural network applications technologies, Sep. 2011, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, In the study of efficient bipedal walking, the center of robot's total mass have been treated as an inverted pendulum. We have studied control methods in which this inverted pendulum follows the target trajectory of parametric excitation. In this paper, we propose a new target trajectory design method for efficient bipedal walking. This target trajectory was represented by a product of two sigmoid functions. We analyzed the relationship between parameters of target trajectory and energy efficiency. As a result, we found that the gentle rising and falling of the target trajectory contributed to energy efficiency via numerical simulations of an inverted pendulum and a bipedal robot. Then, we achieved efficient dynamic walking used by proposed target trajectory.

  • 1A2-3 Estimation of Human Emotion Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
    MURASE Yuki, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhi-Wei
    FAN Symposium : Intelligent System Symposium-fuzzy, AI, neural network applications technologies, Sep. 2011, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, Recently, Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) has been studied by many researchers. In this study, brain activity of the frontal lobe was measured using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) when the subject feels comfortable or uncomfortable. Specifically, two kinds of emotion were classified by combination of five features and three discriminant analyses when the subject looked at the pictures in the screen. Presented pictures were three types: Figure, Color and Image task. As a result, maximum discrimination rate was 85% when training data were identical to the test data. Average discrimination rate was 10% lower when training data were different from test data. Discrimination rates varied by combination of features and discriminant analyses.

  • 1A2-5 Estimation of Walking Intention and Development of Adaptive Walking Training System
    Kato Shoichi, Nagano Akinori, Luo Zhiwei
    FAN Symposium : Intelligent System Symposium-fuzzy, AI, neural network applications technologies, Sep. 2011, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, For evaluation and training of motor function, we developed a system which estimates human walking intention and trains human walking. We used treadmill with built-in force plates, and measure floor reaction force. From the force measurement, the intention of the subject was estimated. We find the linearity between the walking speed and the impulse of the horizontal reaction force when the ground was kicked in walking. Based on this characteristic, the speed of the treadmill was adjusted according to the subject's intention. As future tasks, it is necessary to further develop the system so that the individual variation can be solved.

  • 1A2-4 Identification of Ankle Viscoelasticity During Quiet Upright Stance
    IWAO Kazutaka, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhi-Whi
    FAN Symposium : Intelligent System Symposium-fuzzy, AI, neural network applications technologies, Sep. 2011, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, Nowadays, aging is rapidly proceeding in Japan. We can predict that there will be many accidents of falls of the elderly. So we pay attention to the prevention of falling. In this paper, we model quiet posture with simple inverted pendulum model and identify ankle viscoelasticity during quiet stance using sway of the center of pressure measured by force plate. We examined the change of ankle viscoelasticity when the subject's visual conditions were changed or the ankles were stretched. Visual conditions were open eyes, closed eyes, and biofeedback of the center of pressure. While we found that sway of center of pressure increased as the result of change of visual conditions and ankle joints stretching, we found that ankle viscoelasticity did not change.

  • Hybrid Control of Network Coupled Dynamical System
    MURAYAMA Toru, LUO Zhi-Wei, NAGANO Akinori
    IEICE technical report, Jul. 2011, Japanese, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, We report a hybrid control method of a network coupled system. A network coupled system is a coupled system whose subsystems interact through network, and the network structure is expressed as graph. Espesially we regard the graph as controllable states in our research, and we control the graph and subsystems' states simultane ously. Because the graph is a discrete state, we formulate a network coupled system as a hybrid dynamical system and show the control method.

  • Effect of visual biofeedback on motor imagery
    NAGAI Shinichi, MURASE Yuki, SEKI Keiko, NAGANO Akinori, LUO Zhiwei
    IEICE technical report, Jul. 2011, Japanese, The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers, The motor imagery of the body is frequently used for the BCI or rehabilitation. However, it is reported that the brain activation by motor imagery is lower than the brain activation by motor execution, and it is more difficult to use the motor imagery for the BCI or rehabilitation than the motor execution. This is because the subject is not given real-time sensory feedback when the motor imagery task is performed. We used the technique of biofeedback to solve this problem. Biofeedback is a technique that trains people to control bodily processes with equipments. We measured the brain activation during motor imagery with NIRS, and usually presented the measured brain activity to the subject. Finally, the brain activation by motor imagery approached that by motor execution, and we suggest that we can use the brain activation by motor imagery for the BCI or rehabilitation.

  • Human factor affects eye movement pattern during riding motorcycle on the mountain
    Haiwei Dong, Zhiwei Luo
    PETMEI'11 - Proceedings of the 1st International Workshop on Pervasive Eye Tracking and Mobile Eye-Based Interaction, 2011, English, Human's eyes are of great importance in the process of perception, cognition, movement, etc. as about 80% of information about the surrounding world comes from vision. Through analyzing the pattern of eye movement, we can make it clear how human accomplish everyday life with eyes. As human lives in the communities which are artificial environments, various man-made signs, objects and surrounding people have influence on human, particularly on eye movement pattern. To fully understand the eye movement pattern, we have to consider the human factors. This paper focuses on clarifying eye movement pattern during riding motorcycle on the mountain. We use a mobile eye mark tracking system to record the eye motion and the front view. By referring the recorded movie, eye mark analysis and fixation point analysis verify the influence from human factor. In addition, we provide suggestions to promote safe riding. © 2011 ACM.

  • Modeling and control of a humanoid robot arm with redundant biarticular muscle torques
    Haiwei Dong, Zhiwei Luo, Akinori Nagano
    Proceedings of the 2nd IASTED International Conference on Robotics, Robo 2011, 2011, English, Human's body is quite flexible because of high redundancy. Compared with the existing control schemes of robot manipulator, human's upper limb has better performance in movement and robustness in fault tolerance. This paper addresses the problem of controlling a upper-limb like humanoid robot arm actuated by muscles. Specifically, we built a humanoid robot arm based on a real human's anthropological parameters. Biarticular muscles were added as actuators. The proposed adaptive control scheme tolerates the modeling error the parameter adaptation scheme identifies the timevarying arm parameters in real-time. The computed torques acting on joints are distributed to corresponding muscle forces. The control and adaptation methods were verified by an arm simulation in bend-stretch movement.

  • B26 Mathematical analysis of hammer movement based on a parametrically excited double pendulum
    OHTA Ken, UMEGAKI Koji, MUROFUSHI Koji, LUO Zhi Wei
    The Proceedings of the Symposium on sports and human dynamics, 2010, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, The motions of a hammer are commonly regarded as a circular movement which a hammer undergoes around a turning human body. The distance of a throw depends on the speed of the hammer and the angle of its trajectory at the instant of release. The speed of the hammer increases gradually during preliminary winds and turns. During each turn the hammer rises up toward the high point of the trajectory and passes through the low point. Our interest in this study was to understand the mechanism of acceleration of the hammer in terms of parametrical excitation. The motions of hammer were analyzed to examine our theory using double pendulum model.

  • ADAPTIVE TREADMILL CONTROL BY HUMAN WILL
    Haiwei Dong, Zhiwei Luo, Akironi Nagano
    CLAWAR2010, 2010, English, WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTD, Nowadays treadmill's control has become more and more popular in many fields, such as athletic exercise, rehabitation training, computer game, and so on. In the previous treadmill usage, the subject passively follows the speed of treadmill. However, in many application cases, the treadmill control strategy by human will is very desirable. Focusing on this problem, in this paper, by analyzing the formula of center of pressure (COP) and simulation results, a key index which indicates the intended walking speed was found. Based on the experiment data, a new model of intended walking speed was established, and further calibrated by least-squares regression technology. The new treadmill control strategy proposed in this paper was built with the intended walking speed model. The treadmill experiment shows that our approach is able to control the treadmill velocity smoothly, which verifies the validity.

  • Reduced Model Adaptive Force Control for Carrying Human Beings with Uncertain Body Dynamics in Nursing Care
    Haiwei Dong, Zhiwei Luo, Akinori Nagano
    2010 IEEE/ASME INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ADVANCED INTELLIGENT MECHATRONICS (AIM), 2010, English, IEEE, As the human society steps into the aging society, robots play more and more important roles in our daily life, especially in nursing activities. As we all know, the human body has numerous joints and each joint has at least one degree of freedom. Hence, changing the attitude of human body is very complex. In this paper, we consider the human body as a redundant system and only interested parts of the joint states are controlled. The new strategy proposed in this paper is able to life up the human body to the pre-defined position and posture while ragardless of individual differences. In addition, the convergence analysis, including tracking time analysis and tracking error analysis, is also given. The approach is simulated by lifting a skeleton human model with two robot arms, which verifies the efficiency and effectiveness of the approach.

  • Development of a 3D Interactive Virtual Market System with Adaptive Treadmill Control
    Haiwei Dong, Tatuo Oshiumi, Akinori Nagano, Zhiwei Luo
    IEEE/RSJ 2010 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS (IROS 2010), 2010, English, IEEE, As the computer vision and virtual reality (VR) technology become mature nowadays, there is a huge potential to connect VR with the real world. In this paper, a 3D interactive VR system with adaptive treadmill control is developed. The subject walks on the treadmill at will. Interaction force between feet and treadmill are measured to estimate the subject's intended walking speed. The treadmill belt velocity and 3D display adjust to the walking pace according to the subject's walking intention, which makes the subject feel that he (or her) is walking in the real market. The experiment shows that the control results are smooth, which verifies the validity of the whole system.

  • Restoration of degraded moving image for predicting a moving object
    Kei Akiyama, Zhi-Wei Luo, Masaki Onishi, Shigeyuki Hosoe
    Electronics and Communications in Japan, Feb. 2009, English, Iterative optimal calculation methods have been proposed for degraded static image restoration based on the multiresolution wavelet decomposition. However, it is quite difficult to apply these methods to process moving images due to the high computational cost. In this paper, we propose an effective restoration method for degraded moving images by modeling the motion of moving object and predicting the future object position. We verified our method by computer simulations and experiments to show that our method can achieve favorable results. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Yuichi Kobayashi, Masaki Onishi, Shigeyuki Hosoe, Zhiwei Luo
    DISTRIBUTED AUTONOMOUS ROBOTIC SYSTEMS 8, 2009, English, SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN, Robots that interact with humans are required to achieve multiple simultaneous tasks such as carrying objects, collision avoidance and conversation with human, in real time. This paper presents a design framework of the control and the recognition processes to meet the requirement by considering stochastic behavior of humans. The proposed designing method first introduces petri-net. The petri-net formulation is converted to Markov decision processes and dealt with in optimal control framework. Two tasks of safety confirmation and conversation tasks are implemented. Tasks that normally tend to be designed by integrating many if-then rules can be dealt with in a systematic manner in the proposed framework. The proposed method was verified by simulations and experiments using RI-MAN.

  • Experimental Study of A Parametrically Excited Dynamic Bipedal Walker with Counterweights
    Takeshi Hayashi, Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo, Akinori Nagano, Kazuaki Kaneko, Atsuo Kato
    2009 IEEE-RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, 2009, English, IEEE, This paper reports some interesting results on our experimental study of parametrically excited dynamic bipedal walking. We describe the details of the walking machine that has telescopic legs, semicircular feet, free hip-joint and counterweights. The walker can sustain stable dynamic walking on level ground based on mechanical energy restoration in accordance with the principle of parametric excitation utilizing the effects of semicircular feet and counterweights. Results of numerical analysis of the effect of the counterweights on the gait efficiency are also described.

  • On Efficiency and Optimality of Asymmetric Dynamic Bipedal Gait
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    ICRA: 2009 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-7, 2009, English, IEEE, Period-doubling bifurcation and chaotic behavior are interesting phenomena in limit cycle walking. Their mechanisms are very complicated and their roles in dynamic biped locomotion are still unclear. This paper then investigates how the gait efficiency changes with the asymmetrization through analysis of a simple rimless wheel model. We mathematically show that the symmetric configuration gives the optimal solution when the mean value of the inter-leg angles is constant in terms of kinetic energy. This is derived from two magnitude relations of the energy-loss coefficient and restored mechanical energy. We also show that the symmetric gait is not always optimal from another viewpoint.

  • Sparsing of Information Matrix for Practical Application of a Robot's SLAM
    Haiwei Dong, Thiwei Luo, Weidong Chen
    ICRA: 2009 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-7, 2009, English, IEEE, Mobile robot could navigate in unknown environment autonomously with the help of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Recently, SLAM based on information matrix enjoys much popularity since it is naturally sparse. However, the computational burden related to information matrix balloons with respect to the increase of the mapped landmarks. In this paper, by considering the features of information matrix, we present a novel method which wipes off nearly half of the elements in information matrix. The errors that come from sparsification decrease apparently by loop-closure. Furthermore, the relationship between sparsification and SLAM accuracy is analyzed theoretically. A large scale simulation and experiment conducted on a real robot suggest that the technique is effective for a robot's SLAM in real-world applications.

    The Proceedings of Joint Symposium: Symposium on Sports Engineering, Symposium on Human Dynamics, 2009, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, The motions of hammer were analyzed to understand the mechanism of acceleration using variable-length pendulum and hula-hoop model using energy pumping mechanism. The condition that makes the time derivative of the energy positive is derived as energy pumping for hammer. The condition is expressed in terms of tugging force times velocity to pump hammer energy and tangential acceleration on the handle. In this study, motions of hammer were analyzed and numerical experiments were performed to examine the validity of the theory.

  • Sparsing of Information Matrix for Practical Application of SLAM for Autonomous Robots
    Haiwei Dong, Zhiwei Luo
    DISTRIBUTED AUTONOMOUS ROBOTIC SYSTEMS 8, 2009, English, SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN, As simultaneously localization and mapping (SLAM) is the basis for autonomous robots to realize high level task, it has become a key issue in mobile robotics field to propose a practical SLAM approach for a large scale environment. By analyzing the features of information matrix, this paper presents a novel method to enhance practicability of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) by changing information matrix into a sparse matrix. A large scale environment simulation shows that our sparsification method is highly efficient with the increase of landmarks while maintaining accuracy.

    Kentaro Takagi, Takaaki Osada, Kinji Asaka, Yoshikazu Hayakawa, Zhi-Wei Luo
    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2009, English, Toward the construction of the unified model of ionic polymer actuators, this paper discusses the system modeling with the electro-stress diffusion coupling theory. The theory can explain the differences of the relaxation phenomenon of polymer electrolytes with respect to the various counter ion species in the polymer. In addition to the mechanical system which employs a simple beam model, the electrical system and the electro-mechanical coupling systems are also represented by partial differential equations. The electrical system is modeled based on the non-uniform distributed circuit which represents the electrode roughness. The electro-mechanical coupling system is derived from the electro-stress diffusion coupling theory. The overall system is represented by a statespace equation with a feedback structure. The comparisons between the simulation result and the experimental result show the validity of the model. © 2009 SPIE.

We describe the detailed specifications of the final walking machine that has telescopic legs, semicircular feet, free hip-joint, and counterweights. The walker finally succeeded in sustaining stable dynamic walking on level ground in accordance with the principle of parametric excitation utilizing the effects of semicircular feet and counterweights. We also conducted numerical analysis to examine the change of gait descriptors with respect to the physical parameters, and the results show that the counterweights are effective for improvement of the gait efficiency.

  • Parametric Excitation of a Biped Robot as an Inverted Pendulum
    Toyoyuki Honjo, Zhi-Wei Luo, Akinori Nagano
    2008 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTS AND INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-3, CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS, 2008, English, IEEE, For stable gait generation on the level floor, restoring mechanical energy lost by heel-strike collision at the ground is necessary. Parametric excitation principle is one of the solutions. Harata et al. applied this principle to a knee actuated robot to achieve parametric excitation by bending and extending the knee, and succeeded in generating a sustainable biped gait by computer simulation. Although only the dynamics of the swing-leg was considered in the method, the stance-leg's dynamics also affects the swing-leg's dynamics. Therefore we considered the whole dynamics of the robot in this paper. Therefore, we dealt with the robot's center of mass as an inverted pendulum and achieved stable gait generation by parametric excitation of the inverted pendulum. The resultant energy efficiency was increased significantly.

  • Pseudo Virtual Passive Dynamic Walking and Effect of Upper Body as Counterweight
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2008 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTS AND INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-3, CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS, 2008, English, IEEE, This paper investigates the effect of an upper body on efficient dynamic bipedal walking utilizing its natural dynamics. We introduce an upper body as a one-link torso and add it to a simple biped model by means of a bisecting hip mechanism (BHM). We first mathematically analyze the effect of the upper body with the BHM as a counterweight and discuss how it affects natural swinging motion of the swing leg. Second, we propose a simple method for generating efficient dynamic bipedal gait imitating the property of virtual passive dynamic walking, and numerically analyze the gait efficiency. Simulation results show that the walking system exhibits period-doubling bifurcation, and we discuss how the efficiency changes in the multiple-period gait.

  • On iterative learning control for simultaneous force/position trajectory tracking by using a 5 DOF robotic thumb under non-holonomic rolling constraints
    Kenji Tahara, Suguru Arimoto, Masahiro Sekimoto, Morio Yoshida, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2008 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-9, 2008, English, IEEE, This paper proposes an iterative learning control method for simultaneous force/position tracking tasks by using a 5 D.O.F. robotic thumb under non-holonomic rolling constraints. In our previous works, "blind touching", which is defined as a point-to-point control scheme for the robot to realize a desired contact position and a contact force simultaneously without any external sensing, have proposed. In this paper, an iterative learning control manner to realize a desired continuous trajectory of the center of the contact point together with a desired contact force on the task plane is proposed. The usefulness of this learning control method is demonstrated by showing results of computer simulations.

  • Underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking with an upper body
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2008 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-9, 2008, English, IEEE, Achieving energy-efficient dynamic walking has become one of the main subjects of research on robotic bipedal locomotion. Approaches based on passive-dynamic walkers can accomplish bipedal locomotion. However, passive dynamic walking has only been studied with the legs, and the effect of an upper body has not been clarified. This paper investigates the effect of an upper body on the efficiency and stability of dynamic bipedal locomotion based on observations. We first investigated a suitable upper body, which was a simple 1-link torso with a bisecting hip mechanism that would not destroy natural dynamics of the biped model. Second, we analyzed the robot's driving mechanism and chose underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking as the method for generating an efficient dynamic gait. We confirmed that efficient dynamic walking was possible with a specific resistance of 0.01 and investigated the effect of the physical parameters of the upper body through numerical simulations.

  • Asymptotic stability of dynamic bipedal gait with constraint on impact posture
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2008 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-9, 2008, English, IEEE, This paper studies the efficiency and asymptotic stability of a dynamic bipedal gait with a constraint on the impact posture. First, we generate a gait by using tracking control to achieve the desired trajectory of the hip-joint angle, and show that there is a trade-off between efficiency and robustness through a numerical simulation. Second, we investigate the asymptotic stability of the gait from the mechanical energy balance viewpoint, and discuss the importance of the control input properties. Furthermore, we point out that there is a feedback in mechanical energy in the discrete walking system, and it is difficult to detect a stable 2-period gait.

  • Video restoration with motion prediction based on the multiresolution wavelet analysis
    Kei Akiyama, Zhi-wei Luo, Masaki Onishi, Shigeyuki Hosoe, Kouichi Taji, Yoji Uno
    NEURAL INFORMATION PROCESSING, PART II, 2008, English, SPRINGER-VERLAG BERLIN, We propose a novel method for image sequence restorations. It is based on the wavelet domain image restoration method proposed by Belge et al. for static images [1]. In this paper, by combining the iteration procedure in the Belge's method with the renewing process for sequentially given images and by employing Kalman filer for predicting the foreground movement of the images in the wavelet domain, considerable reduction of the computational cost is shown to be achievable. This is verified by computer simulations on artificially degraded images.

    CIMTEC 2008 - Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Smart Materials, Structures and Systems - Artificial Muscle Actuators using Electroactive Polymers, 2008, English, Trans Tech Publications Ltd, This paper discusses a distributed system modeling of the electrical impedance of ionic polymer-metal composites from the point of view of the electrode roughness. A diffusion-like equation is derived from the distributed circuit model which represents the fractal-like distribution of the polymer-electrode interface. The port-Hamiltonian representation of the system is also shown. In the experiment, the frequency response of the impedance is measured under various conditions. © 2008 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

  • State space modeling of ionic polymer-metal composite actuators based on electrostress diffusion coupling theory
    Takaaki Osada, Kentaro Takagi, Yoshikazu Hayakawa, Zhi-Wei Luo, Kinji Asaka
    2008 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, IROS, 2008, English, IEEE, Ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) actuators are expected as artificial muscles for bio-mimetic soft robots. The IPMC gel first bends quickly and then bends back slowly when a constant voltage is applied to the sample. The latter phenomenon, referred to as the stress relaxation, can be modeled by electrostress diffusion coupling theory. The theory can predict the behavior of the actuator for the different species of counterions. In order to describe the actuator dynamics as a system with inputs and outputs, this paper proposes a linear state space model based on the electrostress diffusion coupling theory. The model consists of the three systems, the electrical, the electro-mechanical, and the mechanical systems. The results of the simulation and the experiment demonstrate the validity of the model. ©2008 IEEE.

    2008 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-9, 2008, English, IEEE, This paper shows through faithfully deriving Paffian forms of 3-D rolling contact constraints that 3-D pinching can be stabilized by using a pair of robot fingers with a hemispherical soft tip and minimum degrees of freedom under the gravity effect. The proposed control input is based on fingers-thumb opposition without using object information or external sensing. Stability analysis of the closed-loop dynamics is presented by using a Lyapunov method. Finally, for the sake of confirmation of effectiveness of the proposed control signals, numerical simulations are carried out.

  • 1P1-E02 Role of Passive Knee-joints from Mechanical Energy Cycle Point of View
    ASANO Fumihiko, LUO Zhi-Wei
    ロボティクス・メカトロニクス講演会講演概要集, May 2007, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, This paper investigates the roles of passive knee-joints in dynamic biped locomotion systems from the viewpoint of mechanical energy cycle. We introduce two planar biped walking models for analyses; one is with semicircular feet and the other is with flat feet. Viscosity at knee-joint is considered as a function to distribute mechanical energy dissipation and its effect on walking speed is numerically investigated. The analysis results and properties of the two models are compared, and the importance of mechanical energy dissipation in dynamic biped locomotion is discussed.

  • 1P1-E03 Asymmetric Shape of Semicircular Feet and Its Effect on Gait Performance
    ASANO Fumihiko, LUO Zhi-Wei
    ロボティクス・メカトロニクス講演会講演概要集, May 2007, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, The authors have clarified the mechanisms and importance of semicircular feet on dynamic biped locomotion. This paper then investigates the effect of asymmetric shape of semicircular feet on biped walking speed. The rolling effect acts as the virtual ankle-joint torque during the stance phase; the heel-side effect propels the robot's center of mass (CoM) forward during the first-half of cycle, whereas the toe-side effect forces CoM backward during the second-half of cycle. The feet on the other hand reduce energy-dissipation caused by heel-strikes at instants of transition. These properties can be adjusted by changing the foot radius. The question then yields of which effect is more crucial for gait generation. Underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking is considered to generate a biped gait and its parametric studies are performed to clarify the mechanisms of semicircular feet with various foot radius.

  • Biped gait generation based on parametric excitation by Knee-joint actuation
    Yuji Harata, Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo, Kouichi Taji, Yoji Uno
    2007 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-9, 2007, English, IEEE, Restoring mechanical energy lost by heel-strike collisions is necessary for stable gait generation. One principle to realize this is parametric excitation. Recently, Asano et al. applied this principle to a biped robot with telescopic-legs, and succeeded in generating a sustainable biped gait by computer simulation. In this paper, we deal with a model of a biped robot that has not only semicircular feet but also actuated knees. Though this robot has no actuator at the hip, knee actuators can sustain gait by parametric excitation. We first verify that an actuated knee can cause parametric excitation, and then show by computer simulation that the proposed biped robot can walk continuously with actuated knees only.

  • Generation of human care behaviors by interactive robot RI-MAN
    Masaki Onishi, ZhiWei Luo, Tadashi Odashima, Shinya Hirano, Kenji Tahara, Toshiharu Mukai
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-10, 2007, English, IEEE, Recently, active researches have been performed to increase a robot's intelligence so as to realize the dexterous tasks in complex environment such as in the street or homes. However, since the skillful human-like task ability is so difficult to be formulated for the robot, not only the analytical and theoretical control researches but also the direct human motion mimetic approach is necessary. In this paper, we propose that to realize the environmental interactive tasks, such as human care tasks, it is insufficient to replay the human motion along. We show a novel motion generation approach to integrate the cognitive information into the mimic of human motions so as to realize the final complex task by the robot.

  • On a distributed parameter model for electrical impedance of ionic polymer
    Kentaro Takagi, Yoshihiro Nakabo, Zhi-Wei Luo, Kinji Asaka
    ELECTROACTIVE POLYMER ACTUATORS AND DEVICES (EAPAD) 2007, 2007, English, SPIE-INT SOC OPTICAL ENGINEERING, From the observation of the measured frequency response, the electrical impedance of IPMC has the characteristics of a distributed parameter system. Especially in the case of TEA ion, we found that the frequency response cannot be approximated by a simple ideal capacitor or even by low-order transfer functions. In this study, we discuss a black-box circuit modeling of the electrical system of IPMC from the point of view of the frequency response. We employ some models whose transfer functions are not rational. One of such models is a distributed circuit (transmission line). Another is a black-box circuit model with a distributed parameter element (constant phase element). Both transfer functions consist of square root of W. In the experiment, the electrical impedance of an IPMC (gold plated Nafion) is measured under some conditions such as electrode clamp sizes and two cation species, Na ion and TEA ion. Froi.-n the result, we found that the electrode clamp condition less affects the measured impedance. However, we observed that the impedance highly depends on the cation species. From the experimental frequency response, the parameters of the model are identified. Larger resistance and smaller capacitive element are identified in TEA case than those in Na case. The identified parameters are consistent with the physical intuition that TEA ion movement is slower than Na ion.

  • Asymptotically stable gait generation for biped robot based on mechanical energy balance
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2007 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-9, 2007, English, IEEE, This paper investigates dynamic bipedal gait and its stability from the mechanical energy balance point of view. The equilibrium points at impact in a dynamic gait are uniquely and systematically determined by two constraint conditions; one is the constraint on restored mechanical energy, the other is the constraint on impact posture. The dynamic gait then becomes always asymptotically stable around the equilibrium points, and this is shown by a simple recurrence formula of the pre-impact kinetic energy. The validity of the method is numerically confirmed via gait generation by virtual passive dynamic walking.

  • Parametric excitation approaches to efficient dynamic bipedal walking
    Fumihiko Asano, Takeshi Hayashi, Zhi-Wei Luo, Shinya Hirano, Atsuo Kato
    2007 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-9, 2007, English, IEEE, Traditionally, an inverted pendulum has been used as a reduced biped locomotion system, whereas this paper proposes a different approach. The essence of dynamic biped gait generation is mechanical energy restoration, and parametric excitation approach is a good idea for it Our novel approach does not require any rotational actuation and thus enables to be free from the constraint of zero moment point (ZMP). This paper considers some basic methods of parametric excitation and shows that energy-efficient biped locomotion can achieved very easily without taking the ZMP condition into account. We then conduct parametric studies by adjusting the control and physical parameters, and determine how well the basic gait perform by introducing some performance indices.

  • Dynamic analyses of underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-10, 2007, English, IEEE, Realization of an energy-efficient and high-speed dynamic walking has come to be one of the main subjects in the research area of robotic biped locomotion, and passive dynamic walking has been widely attracted as a clue to solve the problem. It has been empirically known that the effect of convex curve shape of foot, which characterizes passive-dynamic walkers, is important to increase walking speed. This paper then investigates the driving mechanism of compass-like biped robots and the rolling effect of semicircular feet are mainly investigated. We first analyze the mechanism of a planar fully-actuated compass-like biped model to clarify the importance of ankle-joint torque introducing generalized virtual gravity concept. In the second, a planar underactuated biped model with semicircular feet is introduced and we show that virtual passive dynamic walking by hip-joint torque only can be realized based on the rolling effect. We then compare with a flat feet model through linear approximation, and show that the rolling effect is equivalent to its virtual ankle-joint torque. Throughout this paper, we provide novel insights into how ZMP-free robots can generate a dynamic bipedal gait.

  • The effect of semicircular feet on energy dissipation by heel-strike in dynamic biped locomotion
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-10, 2007, English, IEEE, This paper investigates the effect of semicircular feet on dynamic bipedal walking. It has been clarified in [3] that underactuated virtual passive dynamic walking can be realized by using the rolling effect, which acts as the ankle-joint torque virtually. It has been also shown that, throughout parameter studies, the rolling effect dramatically increases the stable domain of limit cycles. Now that the effect of semicircular feet during stance phase has been discussed, this paper then focuses the effect on mechanical energy dissipation by heel-strike. It is theoretically clarified that, through modeling and analysis of an inelastic collision, increasing walking speed is achieved not by the rolling effect during stance phase but by the effect of reducing mechanical energy dissipation by heel-strike.

  • On NIRS-based brain-robot interface
    Makoto Okujrnura, Zhiwei Luo
    2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS, VOLS 1-5, 2007, English, IEEE, Constructing of flexible and intelligent human-robot interface that can catch the human intention correctly and lead to the success of the required tasks in complex environment by a robot has become a new challenging research subject. In this research, we proposed to apply NIRS (Near Infrared Spectroscopy) to measure the brain activities during the free body motion, we aim to use it as an interface to control the motion of robots directly in the near future. In detail, two basic types of experiments of a human subject are performed so as to distinguish the human brain activities in different tasks, one is the thinking task and another is during the subject's body motions. For each type of experiment, we also set two different tasks. For the thinking experiment, we studied the tasks when the human subject is performing mathematic calculations and puzzles. For the experiment during body motions, we studied finger tapping and tongue extension tasks. As a result, although we couldn't found the difference of the right and left brain activities in the different thinking experiments, we successfully caught the difference of brain activities for different body motions, which left us the possibility of MRS as an important technology in constructing the brain-robot interface.

  • Stable grasp of a 2D rigid object through rolling with soft fingers
    Morio Yoshida, Suguni Arimoto, Ji-Hun Bae, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND BIOMIMETICS, VOLS 1-5, 2007, English, IEEE, This paper first proposes a testbed problem of control for dynamic grasp or immobilization of a 2D rigid object for the sake of gaining a physical insight into stable grasp of an object by soft fingers. Such a problem may play a principal role in understanding the methodology of sensory feedback stabilization similarly to the role of "inverted pendulum on a cart" problems in stabilization and control of mechanical systems. Second a class of coordinated control signals is proposed and shown to be effective for realizing stable grasp of a 2D rigid object in a blind manner without using the knowledge of object kinematics or external sensings. It is shown that rolling contact constraints around the centers of contact areas between soft finger-tips and object surfaces treated as nonholonomic constraints play an essential role in stabilization of a dynamic grasp with forceltorque balance.

  • 633 Dynamic State Sapce Representation with Electrostress Diffusion Coupling Model for IPMC Actuator
    OSADA Takaaki, TAKAGI Kentaro, HAYAKAWA Yoshikazu, LUO Zhiwei
    The Proceedings of the Dynamics & Design Conference, 2007, Japanese, The Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers, IPMC(ionic polymer-metal composite) actuator is one of the soft actuators to be expected as artificial muscles for small robots. The IPMC gel first bends quickly and then bends back slowly when a constant potential is applied to the sample. The latter phenomenon, reffered to as stress relaxation, is modeled by Electrostress Diffusion Coupling Model. We propose a dynamic state space model including stress relaxation. The result of the experiment demonstrates the validity of the model.

  • On control for "Blind Touching" by human-like thumb robots
    Kenji Tahara, Suguru Arimoto, Zhi-Wei Luo, Morio Yoshida
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2007 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION, VOLS 1-10, 2007, English, IEEE, Human can pinch or grasp and manipulate an object stably and dexterously. Accomplishment of such tasks is contributed from human hand's configuration, called "Fingers-thumb opposability". This opposability of the thumb against other digits is specific and granted to only human among primates. When we use a cell phone, or change a TV's channel using a remote controller, we grasp it by a palm and digits other than the thumb, and push buttons using the thumb quickly, without looking the buttons. These kinds of thumb's movement seem to be one of the most intelligent movements in a human. Therefore, execution of such touching tasks without visual or tactile sensing is called in this paper "Blind Touching". The goal of this research is to realize human-like "Blind Touching" by means of a 5 D.O.F. thumb robot model with soft and hemispherical finger-tip. To do this, we formulate a simultaneous contact position and touching force control by using 3-Dimensional rolling contact with the task plane. First, dynamics of the 5 D.O.F. thumb robot model with hemispherical soft finger-tip under rolling constraints is derived. Then, a sensory-motor control law without vision, force or tactile sensing is proposed. Some numerical simulations show that the desired contact position and touching force can be attained by the proposed control scheme. A theoretical proof of convergence to the desired state is also presented.

  • Port-representation of bi-Hamiltonian structure for infinite-dimensional symmetry
    Gou Nishida, Masaki Yamakita, Zhi-wei Luo
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 46TH IEEE CONFERENCE ON DECISION AND CONTROL, VOLS 1-14, 2007, English, IEEE, In this paper, the port-representation of conservation laws is extended to a wider class of symmetries, the infinite-dimensional symmetry expressed by the bi-Hamiltonian system. It is known from Noether's theorem that a conservation law is associated with an invariant property called a symmetry. In certain cases, the symmetry appears in a system as a hidden infinite-dimensional structure. Such a structure can be defined by using a recursive operator consisting of a Hamiltonian pair and is called a bi-Hamiltonian structure. The bi-Hamiltonian structure induces a hierarchical set of conservation laws. This concept can be used for reducing a system possessing a bi-Hamiltonian structure to simpler port-representations of the conservation laws. Finally, a boundary observer for symmetry destruction is shown.

  • Field port-Lagrangian systems with degenerate Lagrangian and external forces
    Gou Nishida, Masaki Yamakita, Zhi-wei Luo
    PROCEEDINGS OF THE 46TH IEEE CONFERENCE ON DECISION AND CONTROL, VOLS 1-14, 2007, English, IEEE, The relation between a port-representation and an infinite-dimensional Euler-Lagrange equation has previously been studied before by the authors. The formal form is called a field port-Lagrangian system. However, this system was considered under the condition that the Lagraneian was regular and the case of a degenerate Lagrangian was not explicitly shown. This paper presents a more general framework for the field port-Lagrangian system from the viewpoint of the treatment of degenerate Lagrangian and external forces.

  • On energy-efficient and high speed dynamic biped locomotion with semicircular feet
    Fumihiko Asano, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2006 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-12, 2006, English, IEEE, This paper investigates effectiveness of semicircular feet on dynamic biped locomotion. We first introduce the simplest biped model with semicircular feet and show its level walking by hip-joint actuation. In the second, parameter study is performed by adjusting the physical and control parameters. Throughout numerical analysis, it is shown that the semicircular feet dramatically increases the walking speed and the stable domain. By the effect of the rolling, energy-efficient and high-speed dynamic biped locomotion on a level can be realized easily without ankle-joint actuation nor concerning the zero moment point condition.

  • Restoration of degraded moving image for predicting a moving object
    Kei Akiyama, Zhi-wei Luo, Masaki Onishi, Shigeyuki Hosoe
    VISAPP 2006: PROCEEDINGS OF THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER VISION THEORY AND APPLICATIONS, VOL 1, 2006, English, INSTICC-INST SYST TECHNOLOGIES INFORMATION CONTROL & COMMUNICATION, Iterative optimal calculation methods have been proposed for restoration of degraded static image based on wavelet multiresolution decomposition. However, it is quite difficult to apply these methods to process moving images due to the high computation cost. In this paper, we propose an effective restoration method for degraded moving image by modeling the motion of a moving object and predicting the future object position. We verified our method by computer simulations and an experiment to show that our method can reduce the computation time.

    Kentaro Takagi, Masanori Yamamura, Zhi-Wei Luo, Masaki Onishi, Shinya Hirano, Kinji Asaka, Yoshikazu Hayakawa
    2006 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-12, 2006, English, IEEE, Ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC), which is one of the electro-active polymer actuators, is expected as artificial muscles for robots. An interesting property of IPMC is that it requires water to work, therefore it is suitable for underwater robots. In this paper, we developed an underwater robot which mimics rajiform swimming, that is the swimming form of a ray fish. Fins are designed using sixteen IPMCs. For autonomous operation, miniaturization of the electrical devices such as a micro controllers and small amplifiers are performed. A simple traveling wave control input is employed to generate moment on the fin. In the experiment, propulsion speed is measured under various control parameters. Furthermore, incremental wave of the fin is observed although the amplitude of the control input is spatially uniform. We also discuss this phenomenon from the point of view of interaction between elasticity of the actuator and fluid dynamics.

  • Development of an inchworm-type searching robot
    Shinya Hirano, Atsuo Kato, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2006 1ST IEEE RAS-EMBS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BIOMEDICAL ROBOTICS AND BIOMECHATRONICS, VOLS 1-3, 2006, English, IEEE, This paper describes an inchworm-type robot that we developed for the application of disaster relief, specially for searching victim. The robot we called AIT-ReBo1 has two types of modules, one is the head module that is equipped at the terminal of the robot's body with a small wireless camera and wireless network functions to communicate with outside, another module is the joint that has two rotational and a linear driven degrees of freedom with a decentralized controller module and energy source in a compact form. We pay attention to moving mechanism and realized the motion patterns such as moving straight, side and rotational movements like an inchworm by the progressive wave in body without using any wheels, or crawlers and legs. This robot has already successfully debut at the AICHI EXPO 2005 and stably played for about one month.

  • Integrated design of IPMC actuator/sensor
    Masaki Yamakita, Akio Sera, Norihiro Kamamichi, Kinji Asaka, Zhi-Wei Luo
    2006 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA), VOLS 1-10, 2006, English, IEEE, We are studying about robotic application of Ionic Polymer-Metal Composite (IPMC). The characteristics of IPMC highly depend on the type of counter-ions, and it is considered that the performance of the actuators can be improved by combining the actuators with several types of counter-ions and applying an integrated control. IPMC has also a sensor function, as the IPMC film generates electromotive force when it is deformed. It has possibility to be integrated into IPMC actuator with soft actuation. In this paper, we consider an integrated design of IPMC actuator/sensor, and investigate a control of the combined IPMC actuators using H-infinity control and the construction of IPMC sensor system.

  • An analysis of increase of bending response in IPMC dynamics given uniform input
    Kentaro Takagi, Yoshihiro Nakabo, Zhi-Wei Luo, Toshiharu Mukai, Masanori Yamamura, Yoshikazu Hayakawa
    SMART STRUCTURES AND MATERIALS 2006: ELECTROACTIVE POLYMER ACTUATORS AND DEVICES (EAPAD), 2006, English, SPIE-INT SOC OPTICAL ENGINEERING, It is found from the locomotion of snake-like underwater robot using Ionic Polymer-Metal Composite (IPMC) as its actuator that, although we specify the same amplitude of driven voltages to each segmented IPMC unit, the resultant bending amplitudes along the body's progressive waves change from small to large toward the robot's tail. To analyze this phenomenon, which is also observed in locomotions of slender fishes, we discuss the modeling and analysis of bending motions of IPMC actuators using the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Eigenfunction expansion technique is used to solve the model of a partial differential equation. The envelope curve can be drawn by the obtained solution, and simulation results reappear the same phenomenon. Deflection of the real robot is measured by video camera and laser beam. Experimental results verifies the validity of the proposed model. Parameter identification is also performed with measured data.

  • Bio-mimetic study on pinching motions of a dual-finger model with synergistic actuation of antagonist muscles
    Kenji Tahara, Zhi-Wei Luo, Ryuta Ozawa, Ji-Hun Bae, Suguru Arimoto
    2006 IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION (ICRA), VOLS 1-10, 2006, English, IEEE, In this paper, we study co-activation of digitorum muscles while perform stable pinching and posture regulation tasks of an object by using dual fingers. The fingers have 2 D.O.F. joints and are actuated by nonlinear redundant digitorum muscles to mimic human-like pinching movements. Firstly, we illustrate the kinematics and the dynamics of the overall system, which consider not only the fingers and an object, but also three muscles for each finger to actuate the finger links. Secondly, we consider nonlinear muscle property based on several physiological studies, and propose sensory-motor control rule to the muscles in order to realize stable pinching simultaneously with posture regulation by introducing internal force term induced by co-activation between flexor digitorums and extensor digitorums to modulate the damping factor in joint space. We verify our study by numerical simulations and conclude that this dual fingers system can realize human-like stable pinching and posture regulation.

  • On control mechanism of human-like reaching movements with musculo-skeletal redundancy
    Kenji Tahara, Zhi-Wei Luo, Suguru Arimoto
    2006 IEEE/RSJ INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON INTELLIGENT ROBOTS AND SYSTEMS, VOLS 1-12, 2006, English, IEEE, This paper focuses on a sensory-motor control mechanism in human reaching movements from the perspective of robotics. By formulating a musculo-skeletal redundant system which takes into account a nonlinear muscle property and performing numerical simulations, we suggest that the human-like reaching movements can be realized by using only simple task-space feedback scheme together with the internal force effect coming from nonlinear property of muscles without any complex mathematical computation such as an inverse dynamics or some optimal trajectory derivation. Firstly, we introduce both kinematics and dynamics of a three-link serial manipulator with six monoarticular muscles and three biarticular muscles model whose movements are limited within a horizontal plane. Secondly, the nonlinear muscle property coming from a physiological study based on Hill's muscle model, is taken into consideration. This nonlinearity makes it possible to modulate the damping effect in joint-space by considering the internal force generated by the redundant muscles. By utilizing this feature, the end-point converges to the desired point using only simple task-space feedback control scheme, even thought the system owns both the joint and muscle redundancies. Finally, we illustrate numerical simulations to show the effectiveness of the control scheme, and suggest one of the direction to study brain-motor control mechanism of human movements.

  • Analysis of system structure around degenerate critical points
    Gou Nishida, Hisakazu Nakamura, Zhiwei Luo
    2006 SICE-ICASE International Joint Conference, Vols 1-13, 2006, English, IEEE, In this paper, we will state the new problem of system structures around degenerate critical points in the viewpoint of control engineering. Then, two fundamental schemes are presented to construct a weak Lyapunov function systematically. The procedures are based on the following deformations. One of them is a collapsing residual singularity defined by the formal local coordinate of Thom's splitting lemma. The other is a blowing-up for the resolution of singularity.

  • On dynamic control mechanisms of redundant human musculo-skeletal system
    Kenji Tahara, Zhi-Wei Luo
    Advances in Robot Control: From Everyday Physics to Human-Like Movements, 2006, English, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, This chapter deals with modeling of human-like reaching and pinching movements. For the reaching movements, we construct a two-link planar arm model with six redundant muscles. A simple task-space feedback control scheme, taking into account internal forces induced by the redundant and nonlinear muscles, is proposed for this model. Numerical simulations show that our sensory-motor control can realize human-like reaching movements. The effect of gravity is also studied here and a method for the gravity compensation on the muscle input signal level is introduced. The stability of this method is proved and its effectiveness is shown through numerical simulations. For the pinching movements, realized by the index finger and the thumb, the co-contraction between the flexor and extensor digitorum muscles is analyzed. It is shown that an internal force term can be generated by the redundant muscles to modulate a damping factor in the joint space. Numerical simulations show that the co-contraction of each digitorums makes it possible to realize human-like pinching movements. Our results suggest that the central nervous system (CNS) does not need to calculate complex mathematical models based on the inverse dynamics or on the planning of optimal trajectories. Conversely, the human motor functions can be realized through the sensory-motor control by exploiting the passivity, nonlinearity and the redundancy of the musculo-skeletal systems. © 2006 Springer.

    Smart Structures and Materials 2005: Electroactive Polymer Actuators and Devices( EAPAD), 2005, English, SPIE-INT SOC OPTICAL ENGINEERING, The essential motion of the ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) is bending, therefore some mechanisms are expected to transform from the bending to other required motions. Motivated by the motion of a spiral spring, we discovered that the bending of the ionic polymer could be directly transformed to the limited angle rotation. We introduce the model of the rotary actuator, which consists of mechanical, electrical and electromechanical dynamics. The motion of the rotary actuator is demonstrated in the experiment. The stationary properties are measured and the parameters of the dynamical model are identified, which are also validated by experiments.

  • Sensory-motor control of a muscle redundant arm for reaching movements - Convergence analysis and gravity compensation
    K Tahara, ZW Luo, S Arimoto, H Kino
    2005 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, Vols 1-4, 2005, English, IEEE, In this paper, we study the sensory motor control mechanism in human reaching movements by considering the redundant muscle dynamics. We first formulate the kinematics and dynamics of a two-link arm model with six muscles, and introduce the nonlinear muscle dynamics based on the biological understanding. Secondly, we show the stability of the system by using intrinsic muscle characteristics and La Salle's invariance theorem. From this result and the numerical simulations, we propose that the reaching movement can be regulated by the internal forces of the redundant muscles, in detail, the muscle's internal forces can be used to control the damping of the joints. In addition, human can compensate the gravity by using antigravity muscles. To realize this effect in the arm, we propose the gravity compensation method at the muscle input level from the viewpoint of robotics. We present the result of numerical simulation to verify the usefulness of this compensation method.

  • Parameter identification method for piezoelectric shunt damping
    Kentaro Takagi, Kenji Nagase, Kazuhiko Oshima, Yoshikazu Hayakawa, Zhi-Wei Luo
    Proceedings of SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering, 2005, English, Piezoelectric shunt damping is a method to reduce structural vibration by shunting a piezoelectric element with an electrical circuit. This paper proposes a method to identify the physical parameters that are required to design piezoelectric shunt damping systems. Employing self-sensing actuator methodology, the proposed method requires no additional sensor or actuator other than a simple bridge circuit. The parameters can be identified from a transfer function simply by linear least squares method. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed method, the shunt damping of the steel plate with the piezoelectric ceramic is performed based on the identified parameters.

    K Tahara, ZW Luo, T Odashima, M Onishi, S Hosoe, A Kato
    SICE 2004 ANNUAL CONFERENCE, VOLS 1-3, 2004, English, SOC INSTRUMENT CONTROL ENGINEERS JAPAN, In this paper, we propose a dynamic human motion simulator to clarify and obtain the natural movement as human carries out. This system consists of a 3D motion capturing system, which has 6 high-speed cameras, 8 force plates, 10 3-axis accelerometers and 32 EMG sensors. To reconstruct the human's complex movement in VR space, a dynamic simulation model of human muscle-skeletal body is constructed. This model has 100 segments of born and has totally 105 D.O.F. in whole body, and also 300 muscles are included in this model. These muscles have the properties of stiffness, damping and contractive force generation. This platform makes it possible for construct human dynamic motion control functions more precisely and is thus useful for bio-mimetic robots. By using the super-redundant human body model, we are studying the brain motor control functions through the dynamic simulations.

    Zhiwei Luo, Hideyuki Ando, Shigeyuki Hosoe, Keiji Watanabe, Atsuo Kato
    IECON Proceedings (Industrial Electronics Conference), 2000, English, IEEE Computer Society, This paper presents a diffusion-based learning approach to generalize optimal control of a robot manipulator over a bounded work space. Generally, optimal control requires to solve a two point boundary value problem with respect to increase and decrease of time and is very difficult to be solved analytically. In our approach, we first assume that, for some sets of initial and desired terminal conditions of the robot's positions we already have the numerical optimal solutions (for example, using some complex numerical computation techniques). Then by using radial basis Junction network, we parameterize these control inputs by a set of weight matrixes. Finally, we apply our diffusion-based algorithm to generalize these weight matrixes for different terminal position conditions. This approach greatly reduced computation cost for the robot to find its optimal control. In addition, since diffusion-based algorithm is a parallel distributed learning approach which only requires local interaction between the nodes of a learning network (a lattice), it can be realized by resent IC hardware technology easily. Computer simulations of a 2 D.O.F. planner robot arm show the effectiveness of our approach.

  • On Adaptation of Robot to Dynamic Environment in Compliant Manipulation
    Luo Zhi-wei, KATO Atsuo, ITO Masami
    Transactions of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers, 1991, The Society of Instrument and Control Engineers, This paper studies on the control of robot to perform compliant manipulation on unknown dynamic environments. Compliant manipulation fundamentally requires robot to adapt for environment dynamics. For robot manipulators to be succeeded in performing such manipulation, it's already known that control of position or force alone is inadequate. Focused on the input-output responses of both position and force of the robot control system, we have proposed a model matching approach. In this approach, both for the selection of reference model and the design of force feedback compensator, the accurate information on environment dynamics was needed. However practically, in most of the robot's contact tasks, we never know the environment dynamics or only know the bounds of its parameters before exiting the task.
    In this paper, by studying the most unfavourable environment dynamics for robot's compliance, the digital simulator for continuous linear dynamic environment, we try to give out an algorithm for robot manipulators to adapt for the unknown environment dynamics autonomously during the manipulation. A setup of experimental system of one degree of freedom robot and environment has also been made to study various of control approaches for robot's pushing manipulation on dynamic environment. Experiment results show the effectiveness of our design approach.

  • Hierarchical Control of Multi-Degree of Freedom Manipulators for Compliant Manipulation.

    JRSJ, 1991, Japanese, The Robotics Society of Japan, In this paper, we study on hierarchical control structure of multi-D. O. F. manipulator to perform compliant manipulation on dynamic objects. We propose that in order to realize the real time fast computation of the joint control torques, it is better to calculate the joints angle terms with low sampling frequency at high level, and compute the lefted control torques including joints velocities and linear compensation with high sampling frequency at low level. Such hierarchical structure is demonstrated by the simulation of a 2-D. O. F arm pushing on a dynamic door. Simulation results also shows the effectiveness of the model matching method that was used in the linear force feedback compensator design, compared with impedance control.

    We have studied robotic biped gait generation based on its dynamics and improvement of the gait efficiency theoretically and experimentally. It is empirically known that the convex curve of the foot, which characterizes passive-dynamic walkers, has important effects on increasing the walking speed. We mathematically clarified the effects of semicircular feet; acting as the virtual ankle-joint torque during the stance phase and reducing the energy dissipation caused by heel strikes, and confirmed that they dramatically improve the gait efficiency through numerical simulations. Parametrically excited dynamic bipedal walking is also our main research subject. We finally completed an experimental walking machine and succeeded its stable level walking by adjusting the physical and control parameters. The experimental result was highly-appraised internationally. In the theoretical investigation, we have considered to achieve parametrically excitation by actuating the knee joint, and successfully applied the effect to level gait generation. We further proposed several advanced methods; parametric excitation based on up-and-down motion of robot's center of mass and ornithoid walking by inverse knee-joint bending, and compared their gait efficiency. Furthermore, we have investigated the gait stability of limit cycle walkers from the viewpoint of mechanical energy balance. We then identified the conditions necessary to systematically achieve this energy balance and clarified their physical meanings. We also considered applying a bisecting hip mechanism (BHM) for adding an upper body to passive-dynamic walkers without destroying their natural dynamics. By clarifying the robot's driving mechanism incorporating the BHM, we successfully achieved its efficient level dynamic walking. Throughout our investigations, we provided novel insights and deep understandings into how energy-efficient and ZMP-free robots can generate a dynamic bipedal gait.

    In recent years, space has been attracting great interest as a new application field on robotics. There are many researches on artificial satellite equipped with several manipulators, which can freely fly on orbit around the earth and work on space station. On the other hand, master-slave teleoperation system also has been used to assist the operator to perform complex and uncertain tasks in space. The system consists of master manipulator with fixed base located in space station or on ground and Slave manipulator working in space. In this study, we analyzed and designed the master-slave teleoperation control system for the free flying space robot. The proposed control system ensures accurate tracking of slave robot upon the master robot and the stabilization of slave robot's base. In order to design this control system we introdduced originally an attitude reaction force. By assuming the passivity of human operator and working environment, the stability of whole system has been guaranteed by the check of passivity. In order to check the contro performnace of the propose teleoperation control system we made the real-time simulator for teleoperation. We have shown the validity of proposed scheme and performance of system via simulations and experiments used the real-time simulator.

    今までのロボットシステムはティーチングプレィバック方式や、プログラミング方式など、人間のきめ細かな作業計画と教示に頼っている。これとは対照的に、生物システムは自己組織化することによって、巧みな運動機能を自律的に獲得している。生体運動の多様性・柔軟性に注目するとき、まず驚くことは、身体の冗長な運動自由度を作業に応じて柔軟に使いこなせる点である。本研究では、ロボットの自律性の向上を目指して、生体の感覚/運動系の自己組織化機能に学び、冗長ロボットの感覚/運動マップを形成する新しい自己組織化方式を提案した。この方式は拡散方程式を用いて、より少ない試行動作でかつ各ニューロン間の局所的な相互作用で、感覚/運動マップを学習できるという利点を持っている。また、形成されたマップの数理的な性質についても調べ、実際のロボットに応用する場合の有効範囲、存在する問題点などを検討した。 その結果、以下のような成果を得た. [1]:生体の自己組織化現象に関する従来視覚や聴覚などの研究実験結果、また数理的な考察を参照にして,拡散方程式をロボットの感覚/運動マップの自己組織化に応用する方式を提案し、また、できたマップの性質と問題点を明確にした。 [2]:上で得た自己組織化アルゴリズムを、いろいろな形を持つロボットを想定して、計算機上でシミュレーションによる確認を行った。具体的には、平面3リンクのマニピュレータによるシュミレーションを行い、ロボットの初期姿勢条件および境界条件がマップの形成に与える影響について検討した。

    黒板に文字を書く、ドアを開く、機械部品を組み立てる、紙コップを掴む、そして、薄板を曲げるなどといった作業は、すべて外部環境との機械的な接触、相互作用を伴う作業である。こうした接触作業について、人間は、今までのどのロボットよりも、まして、どんな動物よりも、上手に作業をこなすことができる。これは、人間の冗長な運動自由度に由来するものが大きいということはだれでも否定できないが、もっと根本的には、人間の知的な環境適応能力に起因することが大きいのではないかと考えられる。Mussa-Ivaldiらは蛙の生体実験を行い,蛙の神経-筋による骨格系の運動制御系が幾つかの平衡点を持つ基底場(基本モジュール)の線形結合で構成されることを明らかにしている.これに対して,本研究では,ロボットが接触作業を行う場合、ロボットの制御に用いる環境モデルもベクトル場でより有効に表現できることを主張し,接触作業実験による考察を与えた.その結果、以下のような成果を得た. a)基底場の線形結合でベクトル場を近似する理論について考察し、接触作業ロボットによる環境モデルのベクトル場表現とその推定問題に拡張した. b)ロボットの手先に力センサを装備し,未知な環境の何点で接触を行い,得られた接触力ベクトル情報と関節角度情報を統合し,全作業空間の環境に関する接触力のベクトル場を形成する実験を行い、未知環境のモデルを獲得できることを確認した. c)以上で得られた環境の法線ベクトル場モデルをロボットの位置/力ハイブリッド制御に利用し、未知な環境(剛体および柔軟物体)上でならい作業を有効に実行できたことを確認した.

    In developing an artificial device, eg. a prosthetic forearm, which is used by a person to overcome disability, the following points have to be considered : (1) its manipulability should be simple and casy ; (2) its appearance should be physically similar to the actual limb ; (3) its weight should be light ; (4) its operating noise should be negligible, or nearly negligible ; and, (5) its power supply should be small and lightweight, In addition, the capability of the prosthctic device to mimic the response of the actual limb with respect to voluntary motor commands and to environmental loads should be addressed. We developed an EMG controlled prosthetic forearm with three degrees of freedom actuated by small size ultrasonic motors. Its weight is less than 700 g and the size is the same as the adult's forearm. The conventional prosthetic arm using DC motors produces a motion noise. So the reduction of the motion noise was one of the big problems to be soleved. Since our prosthetic forearm uses ultrasonic motors, it produces no motion noise. In addtion, the amputee can control six kinds of motions i. e. pronation and supnation of the forarm, flection and extension of the wrist, and grasping and hand-opening. The interface between the amputee and the prosthetic forearm was designed on the basis of the fact that the amputee still preserves the phantom limb motor map after amputation. It can discriminate the amputee's intended motion among six kinds of motions using the EMG signals from the remained muscles and also produce the command signals to control the prosthetic arm. Consequently, the amputee is able to manipulate the prosthetic arm as he intends and hes control load is relieved sharply.

    現在の生産現場で活用されているロボットは教示された動作しかできず,不確実で複雑な作業環境や作業条件の変更には適切に対処できない.一方,生体は複雑な環境においても,神経系の自己組織化によって環境認識から運動制御までの機能を自律的に獲得し,環境に適応した行動を実現できる.Mussa-Ivaldらの生体実験によれば,蛙の神経筋による骨格系の運動制御が幾つかの平衡点を持つ基底場の線形結合で構成されるベクトル場によって行われている.このような生体の高度な運動機能を解明し,人工的に実現するすることを目指して,本研究は,ベクトル場の近似理論を解析し,接触作業ロボットへの応用を試みた.その結果、以下のような成果を得た. 1)基底場の線形結合でサンプルベクトルからベクトル場の近似理論を考察し、接触作業ロボットによる環境モデルのベクトル場表現とその推定問題に拡張した. 2)ロボットの手先に力センサを装備し,未知な環境の何点で接触を行い,得られた接触力ベクトル情報と関節角度情報を統合し,全作業空間の環境に関する接触力のベクトル場を自己組織的に形成する実験を行い、未知環境のモデルを獲得できることを確認した. 3)以上で得られた環境の法線ベクトル場モデルをロボットの位置/力ハイブリッド制御に利用し、未知な剛体環境におけるロボットの接触作業を有効に実行できた.

    “歩く",“走る",“跳ぶ",といった身体全体の動きから,“まわす",“つまむ"といったマニピュレーションまで,我々が日常行っているさまざまな運動は,筋骨格系という多自由度のリンク機構を外部環境との相互作用のもとで適応的に制御することにより実現されている.たとえば,ボールや箱などを両手で操作する場合,物体の位置・姿勢制御とそれにかかる力(内力)の制御を同時に行う必要がある.特にボールのように変形する物体(ここでは,動的対象物と呼ぶ)の場合は,手先・関節・筋のインピーダンス設定と両上肢の冗長自由度拘束が重要な役割を果たす。本研究では,運動目的および対象物動特性と上肢インピーダンス・プランニングとの関係を解析し,マニピュレーション作業における人間の制御方策を明らかにすることを目的としている. 本年度は基礎実験として,手首関節により剛体および動的対象物を左右に移動させる実験を行った(肘は台に固定).右へ60mm移動させた時の両手首屈筋・伸筋のEMGを測定した.剛体対象物に対しては,対象物を右に駆動するため右手伸筋,左手屈筋のみが活動するのに対して,動的対象物では,左右手首関節の屈筋・伸筋が同時に活動することが明らかになった.屈筋・伸筋の同時活動は対象物の駆動には寄与しない.これは被験者が手首関節の運動インピーダンスを意図的に大きくして制御していることを意味する.また,対象物の粘性が小さい場合は,同時活動の振幅レベルがさらに大きくなる.このことは被験者が対象物の動特性に応じて手首関節のインピーダンスを調節していることを意味する.この調節原理が筋の双線形モデルを組み込んだ協調制御モデルで説明できることを示した.

    身体の巧みな運動/行動は、筋骨格系・脊髄のインピーダンス可変機構、およびそれらを操る高度な内部制御機構に支えられている.そこでは、フィードバックを主体とするサーボ制御や適応制御の上位機構として、外部環境の特性やそれらとの相互作用を表現した内部モデルが制御機構に組み込まれている.随意運動のプログラミングと制御にとって、これらの内部モデルの形成とそれに基づくフィードフォワード制御機構が本質的な役割を果たしていると考えられる. 本年度は、両手協調動作における手先インピーダンス調節を取り上げた.ボールや箱のような物体を両手で操作する場合、物体の位置・姿勢制御とそれにかかる力(内力)の制御を同時に行う必要がある.特にボールのように変形する物体(ここでは、動的対象物と呼ぶ)の場合は、手先・関節・筋のインピーダンス設定と両上肢の冗長自由度拘束が重要な役割を果たす.基礎実験として、手首関節により剛体および動的対象物を左右に移動させる実験を行った(肘は台に固定).右へ60mm移動させた時の両手首屈筋・伸筋のEMGを測定した.剛体対象物に対しては、対象物を右に駆動するため右手伸筋、左手屈筋のみが活動するのに対して、動的対象物では,左右手首関節の屈筋・伸筋が同時に活動することが明らかになった.屈筋・伸筋の同時活動は対象物の駆動には寄与しない.これは被験者が手首関節の運動インピーダンスを意図的に大きくして制御していることを意味する.また、対象物の粘性が小さい場合は、同時活動の振幅レベルがさらに大きくなる.このことは被験者が対象物の動特性に応じて手首関節のインピーダンスを調節していることを意味する。この調節原理が筋の双線形モデルを組み込んだ協調制御モデルで説明できることを示した.

    近年、複数ロボットの協調制御に関する研究が活発に展開されてきている.しかし、そのほとんどは操作対象物を剛体とし、アーム間の静的な力学関係を制御するための手法の開発に限定されている.しかし、私達の日常生活の中では、紙コップをもって水を飲んだり、豆腐や玉子を操作することもできる。このようなマニピュレーションを実現するため、本研究では、動的な(外力により容易に変形する)作業環境または操作対象物に対して、複数のロボットアームが接触作業を行なうための協調制御策を解析した.その結果、以下のような成果を得た. 1)複数アームと動的な環境の相互作用に関する運動方程式を定式化し、作業要求(位置制御、接触力、内分配分)と協調制御の関係を明確にした. 2)協調制御を実現するための各アーム制御系の動作帯域を解析し、これらの帯域幅を調節するのに必要なアームの制御法をモデルマッチングに基づき求めた. 3)2台のロボットアームの手先に力センサを装着し、上記の制御法に基づき動的な対象物の運搬制御実験を行ない、良好な結果を得て、有効性を確認した. 4)人による動的な対象物の両手協調制御実験を行なった.両手先の接触力、位置情報、並びに手首関節の筋電位(EMG)から被験者がどのような帯域幅と内力配分で協調制御を行なっているかを解析した.その結果、被験者が対象物の機械的インピーダンス特性に応じて、手首関節のインピーダンスをあらかじめ調節して位置制御を行なっていることが明らかになった.すなわち、フィードバック制御だけでなく、環境の内部モデルに基づくフィードフォワード制御の重要性が示され、今後のロボットアームの協調制御を考察するうえで有用な知見を得ることができた.

    Advanced animals, including man, have a very high ability to voluntarily behave and move. Therefore, before the movement is actually output as a pattern of muscular activity, the programming of considerably complex behaviors and movements must be executed in advance. A variety of problems must be solved, for example, until the time pattern of muscular contraction is finally induced from the purpose of, such as, trying to drink water. In the present research, the following items were picked up from the variety of problems of human movements. 1)The relation between the mechanical mechanism of musculo-skeletal system and the regulation of motor impedance. 2)How are the operational and joint impedances of human body and limbs controlled corresponding to the voluntarily movements and object's impedance. 3)The pattern generation for human movements via motor impedance control. Though we got many interesting results, one of them has revealed that humans dexterously adjust hand force and hand impedance based on the nature of the task. Also, optimal use of impedance regulating mechanism featured by concurrent activities of the flexor and extensor of the muscles is achieved to set impedance at the wrist joint for the given task. This process of control defines the posture of redundant arm while allowing manipulatability of the hand be properly maintained. It also provides the hand with robustness against, or makes it less vulnerable to, external disturbances.

    リンク機構では、構造と機能が密接に関連しており、筋及び骨格による自由度制約が作業空間の運動機能及び中枢レベルの制御方策に大きな影響を与える。このため、まず以下の観点から、力学的構造と機能の関係を解析した。 (1)筋骨格系の直・並列構造の関係をヤコビ行列により記述した。 (2)作業、関節、筋空間における運動インピーダンスと表現とそれらの関係を明らかにした。 (3)筋の粘弾性、付着位置、筋群の配置と作業空間(例えば、手先)の運動インピーダンス、力、変冷の関係をヤコビ行列を用いて記述した。 (4)特に、作業空間から筋空間への変換は、冗長性のため、何らかの付加的な条件を与えない限り一意に定まらない。本年度は、作業空間の目標運動インピーダンスを実現しながら、同時に、冗長性を利用して関節インピーダンスの配分選択、関節レベルの安定性(インピーダンス行列の正定値性)等のサブ・タスクを満たす一般的な変換法を導出した。 次に、拘束運動時の上肢インピーダンス解析するため、以下の実験を実施した。ロボット・アームの先端に6軸力センサを取り付ける。ロボット側にあらかじめインピーダンスを設定しておき、被験者にそのハンドを持たせ、直線、回転などの拘束運動制御を行わせる。運動中にロボット・アームを強制的に動かしたときに生じる手先反立から、ヒトが手先に設定しているインピーダンスを同定した。その結果、1)手先慣性行列が力学モデルから計算した手先の等価慣性と一致すること、2)手先スティフネス楕円体の方向はMussa-Lvaldiらの実験結果と一致するず、大きさはかなり小さいこと、3)手先粘性楕円体の方向が手先スティフネスと類似していることを明らかになった。
