Abstract

Dynamic movement primitives (DMPs) are a flexible trajectory learning scheme widely used in motion generation of robotic systems. However, existing DMP-based methods mainly focus on simple go-to-goal tasks. Motivated to handle tasks beyond point-to-point motion planning, this work presents temporal logic guided optimization of motion primitives, namely PIBB-TL algorithm, for complex manipulation tasks with user preferences. In particular, weighted truncated linear temporal logic (wTLTL) is incorporated in the PIBB-TL algorithm, which not only enables the encoding of complex tasks that involve a sequence of logically organized action plans with user preferences, but also provides a convenient and efficient means to design the cost function. The black-box optimization is then adapted to identify optimal shape parameters of DMPs to enable motion planning of robotic systems. The effectiveness of the PIBB-TL algorithm is demonstrated via simulation and experime
