Many neural-network models use threshold units with sigmoid transfer functions and gradient descent-type learning rules. The learning equations used are those of the backpropagation algorithm. In this work, the solution of the kinematics of a six-degrees-of-freedom robot manipulator is implemented by using ANN. Work has been undertaken to find the best ANN configurations for this problem. Both the placement and orientation angles of a robot manipulator are used to fin the inverse kinematics solutions.EnglishBackpropagationDegrees of freedom (mechanics)Intelligent controlInverse kinematicsInverse problemsLearning algorithmsLearning systemsManipulatorsMathematical modelsMotion controlProblem solvingTransfer functionsStructured artificial neural networksNeural networksImproved approach to the solution of inverse kinematics problems for robot manipulatorsArticle10.1016/S0952-1976(99)00050-0
