  • Patent number: 4990838
    Abstract: A movement trajectory generating system of a dynamical system uses neural network units (1, 2, 3) including cascade connection of a first layer (11, 21, 31), a second layer (12, 22, 32), a third layer (13, 23, 33) and a fourth layer (14, 24, 34), to learn a vector field of differential equations indicating forward dynamics of a controlled object (4). Conditions concerning trajectories of a final point and a via-point of movement of the controlled object and locations of obstacles are given from a motor center (5). While smoothness of movement is ensured by couplings of electric synapses using errors with respect to those conditions as total energy, least dissipation of energy is attained, whereby trajectory formation and control input for realizing the trajectory are obtained simultaneously.
