Intelligent Control of Robotic Systems

This book provides a strong coverage of both the theoretical and application aspects of neural networks, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms and hybrid intelligent techniques in robotics. Specific emphasis in the research work is given on the development of new efficient learning rules for robotic connectionist training and synthesis of neural learning algorithms for low-level control in the domain of robotic compliance tasks. The book contains several different examples of applications based on neural and hybrid intelligent techniques.
