Impedance-based Gaussian Processes for Modeling Human Motor Behavior in Physical and Non-physical Interaction.

Objective: Modeling of human motor intention plays an essential role in predictively controlling a robotic system in human-robot interaction tasks. In most machine learning techniques, human motor behavior is modeled as a generic stochastic process. However, the integration of a priori knowledge about underlying system structures can provide insights on otherwise unobservable intrinsic states that...
