Lyapunov-Based Deep Learning Control for Robots with Unknown Jacobian

Deep learning, with its exceptional learning capabilities and flexibility, has been widely applied in various applications. However, its black-box nature poses a significant challenge in real-time robotic applications, particularly in robot control, where trustworthiness and robustness are critical in ensuring safety. In robot motion control, it is essential to analyze and ensure system stability, necessitating the establishment of methodologies that address this need. This paper aims to develop a theoretical framework for end-to-end deep learning control that can be integrated into existing robot control theories. The proposed control algorithm leverages a modular learning approach to update the weights of all layers in real time, ensuring system stability based on Lyapunov-like analysis. Experimental results on industrial robots are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed deep learning controller. The proposed method offers an effective solution to the black-box problem in deep learning, demonstrating the possibility of deploying real-time deep learning strategies for robot kinematic control in a stable manner. This achievement provides a critical foundation for future advancements in deep learning based real-time robotic applications.
