Figure 11

Qualitative comparison of the octopus and STIFF-FLOP robot movements, before and after self-refinement. (a) Comparison of the octopus and STIFF-FLOP robot movements based on the initial learning from demonstration approach (before self-refinement) at time instances t=0.2, t=0.5 and t=1. The red dots represent the tip trajectory. (b) Reproduction on the robot after self-refinement. The black dots depict the refined trajectory of the tip. (c) The initial (light gray) and refined (green and blue surfaces) control variables.
