Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a system and a method for controlling a mechanical system having different actuators and multiple degrees of freedom to track a reference trajectory for performing a task. The system comprises a memory configured to store an energy based inverse dynamics model trained with machine learning to map states of the different actuators to corresponding torques for the different actuators, wherein the energy based inverse dynamics model is configured to model energy of the mechanical system with a Gaussian Processes Regression (GPR) process having a matrix capturing correlations between the torques of the different actuators. The system further comprises a processor configured to process the states of the different actuators with the energy based inverse dynamics model to produce values of the torques for the different actuators of the mechanical system, and control the mechanical system based on the produced values of the torques.
