Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic hebbian learning in adaptive frequency oscillators
TL;DR: A learning rule for oscillators which adapts their frequency to the frequency of any periodic or pseudo-periodic input signal, which is easily generalizable to a large class of oscillators, from phase oscillators to relaxation oscillators and strange attractors with a generic learning rule.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Programmable central pattern generators: an application to biped locomotion control
TL;DR: A novel system composed of coupled adaptive nonlinear oscillators that can learn arbitrary rhythmic signals in a supervised learning framework that can modulate the speed of locomotion, and even allow the reversal of direction.
Journal ArticleDOI
iCub: the design and realization of an open humanoid platform for cognitive and neuroscience research
Nikolaos G. Tsagarakis,Giorgio Metta,Giulio Sandini,David Vernon,Ricardo Beira,Francesco Becchi,Ludovic Righetti,José Santos-Victor,Auke Jan Ijspeert,Maria Chiara Carrozza,Darwin G. Caldwell +10 more
TL;DR: The design of the mechanisms and structures forming the basic 'body' of the iCub are described and kinematic structures dynamic design criteria, actuator specification and selection, and detailed mechanical and electronic design are considered.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Online movement adaptation based on previous sensor experiences
TL;DR: This paper proposes a general framework to achieve very contact-reactive motions for robotic grasping and manipulation, and uses dynamical systems, named Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs), to learn goal-directed behaviors from demonstration.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Pattern generators with sensory feedback for the control of quadruped locomotion
TL;DR: A way of designing CPGs with coupled oscillators in which the controller can independently control the ascending and descending phases of the oscillations, and a systematic way of adding sensory feedback from touch sensors in the CPG such that the controller is strongly coupled with the mechanical system it controls.
