Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we aimed to develop model-based reinforcement learning of assistive strategies for physically-assistive robots with data obtained through physical human-robot interactions. With the key concept of "Learning a practical (sub)optimal strategy from a small amount of data", we developed sample-efficient and model-based reinforcement learning algorithms based on Gaussian processes. Then, we developed a safe-assistive device for a knee joint and conducted learning experiments of assistive strategies for physically-assistive robots with human subjects. The experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
