Summary:The aim of this paper is to develop a new method for minimizing
joint torques of redundant manipulators in the Chebyshev sense and to
present a fully neural-network-based computational scheme for its
implementation. Minimax techniques are used to determine the null space
acceleration vector which can guarantee to minimize the maximum joint
torque. For real-time implementation, we transform the proposed method
into a computation of a recurrent neural network. At each time step, the
neural network is adopted for both the solution of the least-norm joint
acceleration and the determination of the optimum null space
acceleration vector. Compared with previous torque minimization schemes,
the proposed method enables more direct monitoring and control of the
magnitudes of the individual joint torques than does the minimization of
the sum of squares of the components. Simulation results demonstrate
that the proposed method is effective for the torque minimization
control of redundant manipulators
