Fault-tolerant Control of Robot Manipulators with Sensory Faults using Unbiased Active Inference

This work presents a novel fault-tolerant control scheme based on active inference. Specifically, a new formulation of active inference which, unlike previous solutions, provides unbiased state estimation and simplifies the definition of probabilistically robust thresholds for fault-tolerant control of robotic systems using the free-energy. The...

A Novel Adaptive Controller for Robot Manipulators Based on Active Inference

More adaptive controllers for robot manipulators are needed, which can deal with large model uncertainties. This letter presents a novel active inference controller (AIC) as an adaptive control scheme for industrial robots. This scheme is easily scalable to high degrees-of-freedom, and it maintains high performance even in the presence of...
