Underactuated legged robots depict highly nonlinear and complex dynamical behaviors that create significant challenges in accurately modeling system dynamics using both first principles and system identification approaches. Hence, the design of stabilizing controllers becomes more challenging due to inaccurate modeling. Suppose physical parameters on mathematical models have miscalibrations due to uncertainty in identifying and modeling processes. In that case, designed controllers could perform poorly or even result in unstable responses. Moreover, these parameters can change over time due to operation and environmental conditions. In that respect, analogous to a living organism modifying its behavior in response to novel conditions, adapting/updating system parameters, such as spring constant to compensate for modeling errors, could provide the advantage of constructing a stable gait level controller without needing 'exact' dynamical parameter values. This paper presents an online, model-based adaptive control approach for an underactuated planar hexapod robot's pronking behavior adopted from antelope species. We show through systematic simulation studies that the adaptive control policy is robust to high levels of parameter uncertainties compared to a non-Adaptive model-based dead-beat controller.

Stochastic analysis and adaptive control studies in legged systems Er, Güner Dilşad; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Saranlı, Uluç; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-6-7) Underactuated legged robots depict highly nonlinear and complex dynamical behaviors that create significant challenges in accurately modeling system dynamics using both first principles and system identification approaches. Hence, the design of stabilizing controllers becomes more challenging due to inaccurate modeling.

Inverse dynamics control of constrained robots in the presence of joint flexibility Ider, SK (Elsevier BV, 1999-07-29) An inverse dynamics control algorithm for constrained flexible-joint robots is developed. It is shown that in a flexible-joint robot, the acceleration level inverse dynamic equations are singular because of the elastic media. Implicit numerical integration methods that account for the higher order derivative information are utilized for solving the singular set of differential equations. The control law proposed linearizes and decouples the system and achieves simultaneous and asymptotically stable trajecto...
Identification of a vertical hopping robot model via harmonic transfer functions Uyanik, Ismail; Ankaralı, Mustafa Mert; Cowan, Noah J.; Saranlı, Uluç; Morgul, Omer (2016-05-01) A common approach to understanding and controlling robotic legged locomotion is the construction and analysis of simplified mathematical models that capture essential features of locomotor behaviours. However, the representational power of such simple mathematical models is inevitably limited due to the non-linear and complex nature of biological locomotor systems. Attempting to identify and explicitly incorporate key non-linearities into the model is challenging, increases complexity, and decreases the ana...
Automated classification of remote sensing images using multileveled MobileNetV2 and DWT techniques Karadal, Can Haktan; Kaya, Muhammed Çağrı; Tuncer, Turker; Dogan, Sengul; Acharya, U. Rajendra (2021-12-15) Automated classification of remote sensing images is one of the complex issues in robotics and machine learning fields. Many models have been proposed for remote sensing image classification (RSIC) to obtain high classification performance. The objective of this study are twofold. First, to create a new space object image collection as such a dataset is not currently available. Second, propose a novel RSIC model to yield highest classification performance using our newly created dataset. Our presented autom...
An Embodied and extended cognitive dynamic field theory (dft) model for piloting tasks supported with flight records Kaygusuz, Yasin; Çakır, Murat Perit; Department of Cognitive Sciences (2015) The DFT modeling employs the dynamical systems approach to model the human motor and sensory stimulus unified with cognitive behavior. Since the DFT model includes the embodiment already embedded into the model, it can be easily used to generate task oriented robotic behavior similar to human activities including cognition. In this study the navigation trajectories of an aircraft with a pilot will be modeled using the DFT approach. The model will include the embodiment of the human mind into the body of the...
