Abstract:
Medical robotic arm often encounters multi-source and nonlinear errors during the calibration process, making it difficult for traditional mathematical modeling methods to fully characterize system error features, thereby limiting further improvement in calibration accuracy. In this study, a robotic arm parameter error identification model is established, and a calibration method based on an adaptive long short-term memory (ALSTM) neural network is proposed. The method incorporates a particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the weights of each layer of the LSTM neural network, enabling more effective fitting of robotic arm kinematic errors and ultimately yielding more accurate Denavit-Hartenberg (D-H) parameters. To validate the proposed approach, 110 sets of experimental data are collected using the HSR-JR680 robotic arm calibration system. Experimental results demonstrate that the ALSTM model reduces the root mean square error (RMSE) by 23.07%-80.39% compared to traditional calibration methods, and shortens the convergence time by 32.44% compared to a standard LSTM model. The optimized D-H parameters obtained meet the high-precision calibration requirements of medical robotic arm, confirming the effectiveness of the proposed method.
