Abstract
Investigators publish new report on robotics. According to news reporting from Belgrade, Serbia, by NewsRx journalists, research stated, "Emerging robotic systems with compliant characteristics, incorporating nonrigid links and/or elastic actuators, are opening new applications with advanced safety features, as well as improved performance and energy efficiency in contact tasks." Financial supporters for this research include Science Fund of The Republic of Serbia. Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from University of Belgrade: "However, the complexity of such systems poses challenges in modeling and control due to their nonlinear nature and model variations over time. To address these challenges, the paper introduces Locally Weighted Projection Regression (LWPR) and its online learning capabilities to keep the model of compliant actuators accurate and enable the model-based controls to be more robust."
