Discussions on Inverse Kinematics based on Levenberg-Marquardt Method and Model-Free Adaptive (Predictive) Control

Abstract: In this brief, the current robust numerical solution to the inverse kinematics based on Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) method is reanalyzed through control theory instead of numerical method. Compared to current works, the robustness of computation and convergence performance of computational error are analyzed much more clearly by analyzing the control performance of the corrected model free adaptive control (MFAC). Then mainly motivated by minimizing the predictive tracking error, this study suggests a new method of model free adaptive predictive control (MFAPC) to solve the inverse kinematics problem. At last, we apply the MFAPC as a controller for the robotic kinematic control problem in simulation. It not only shows an excellent control performance but also efficiently acquires the solution to inverse kinematic.
