Abstract

This paper presents a metaheuristic-based control framework, called Beetle Antennae Olfactory Recurrent Neural Network (BAORNN), for simultaneous tracking control and obstacle avoidance of a redundant manipulator. The ability to avoid obstacles while tracking a predefined reference path is critical...
