Reinforcement Learning Method for Adaptive Control of Uncertain Bilateral Teleoperation Robots
摘要
Teleoperation robot systems are commonly used for operations in hazardous, unknown, and specialized environments. As an adaptive control strategy, Reinforcement learning can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of master-slave robot collaboration in dynamic environments. To Address the model uncertainty in time-delayed bilateral teleoperation systems and the control accuracy issues arising from the actor-critic (AC) algorithm, this paper proposes an uncertainty-adaptive control method based on reinforcement learning. The proposed approach utilizes a radial basis function neural network for implementation, where the actor network generates control strategies and approximates uncertainties in system dynamics, the critic network evaluates the control process cost. A non-singular fast terminal sliding surface is adopted to guarantee convergence of tracking errors within a predefined time while circumventing the singularity problems inherent in conventional sliding mode control. Subsequently, the stability of the closed-loop system was rigorously examined through Lyapunov function analysis, and the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method were demonstrated through simulation experiments.
