In this study a landing control of an acrobat robot is considered and Q-learning method is applied for falling avoidance control. Since the dynamics of the system is changed according to contact conditions to the ground, the system is a typical variable constraint and hybrid system. The state space for the Q-learning consists of discrete mode variable and continuous states. It is shown by numerical simulations that taking a step motion is automatically generated and falling down is avoided properly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
