Impedance control of robot manipulator using artificial intelligence

This paper deals with a sliding mode impedance control (SMIC) of end-effector of robot manipulator using a tracking control scheme and a real-time artificial intelligence algorithm based on a radial basis function neural networks(RBFNNs). To real-time estimate the design parameters of desired impedance model such as desired inertia, damping, and stiffness desired impedance, SMIC(sliding mode impedance control) with RBFNNs algorithm is proposed.
