ROBOT MOVEMENT APPARATUS AND RELATED METHODS

Abstract:

Apparatus, systems, articles of manufacture, and methods for robot movement are disclosed. An example robot movement apparatus includes a sequence generator to generate a sequence of context variable vectors and policy variable vectors. The context variable vectors are related to a movement target, and the policy variable vectors are related to a movement trajectory. The example apparatus includes a calculator to calculate an upper policy and a loss function based on the sequence. The upper policy is indicative of a robot movement, and the loss function is indicative of a degree to which a movement target is met. The example apparatus also includes a comparator to determine if the loss function satisfies a threshold and an actuator to cause the robot to perform the robot movement of the upper policy when the loss function satisfies the threshold.
