    The chest compression is one of the most important actions for first-aid cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Because it requires large torque/force to be generated, the performers have to take an energy saving position and motion until advanced life support providers take over. The energy saving motion strictly depends on the body weight and height of the performers. In this research, the chest compression is optimized from kinematic and dynamic point of view. By using Pseudo-differential and zero-phase filter, the angular velocity and acceleration are derived from a motion capture data, and generative force is calculated by inverse dynamic computation. Based on an evaluation function and constraints, the chest compression is optimized kinematically, dynamically and temporally. Moreover, for the chest compression of a child with light weight, a motion aid is optimized. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated based on a physical load of the performers by measuring heart rate.

    1. Dynamical Information Processing Theory We have established two methods for designing dynamical information processing mechanisms based on polynomials and physical dynamics systems. We also introduced a parameter representing the plasticity of dynamical systems and developed learning and development model based on the plasticity. A communication model was realized utilizing the attractors of the dynamical system.

    これまで,ロボットの行動決定のための情報処理系はオートマトンやモジュールのネットワークとして記述される離散事象システムとして表現されてきた.ここでは,各ノードやモジュールが個々の処理を行い,せいぜいこれらの組み合わせの数の情報処理しか実現できない.これはフレーム問題として,実世界に対応した情報処理系の実現に向けた大きな問題となっている.これに対し,生体内における力学現象から力学系と知能の密接な関係が注目されるようになり,力学系を用いた情報処理系の設計が行われるようになってきた.本研究では,力学的情報処理系を基礎として,これを扱う記号空間の構成法を以下の二つの手法によって示す.
    (1)関数空間の設計による記号空間の設計
    運動を決定する運動空間のベクトル場を定める上層の空間が存在し,この中の点が力学系に従って移動することにより,運動空間でのベクトル場が連続的に変わり,ロボットの運動の生成と遷移を実現をする.1つの運動を記号空間での1点として表現し,これが時空間的に連続に動くことでロボットの運動を定める構造となっている.
    (2)自己組織的にシンボルを獲得する空間の設計
    自己組織化マップを用いることで,力学系を連続的に配置する機構を設計する.従来の自己組織化マップでは時系列信号を陽に扱うことは困難であったため,ここではDBSOM(Dynamics-based Self Organizing MaP)を開発し,運動の記憶と再生を可能とする記号空間を設計する.

    我々はこれまでに能動鉗子を用いたマスタスレーブ型小型手術ロボットシステムを開発した.このシステムは手術空間を占有しないことを目的とし,能動鉗子,マニピュレータを小型化し,駆動系を含めて腹壁近くに配置するシステムとなっている.これらは多自由度ポジショナによって支持され,手術に適した位置と姿勢で固定される.ポジショナは4つの球面ジョイントを持つ多関節アームで,静止時は機械的にロックされ,位置決めを行う際には圧縮空気の注入によりロックがはずされフリーになる.これらのパッシブな機構により,ロボットの位置決めを自由に行い,機械的ロックによって固定することが迅速なセッティング,安全性といった観点から必要であろう.また,手術時のロボットのセッティングにおいて,鉗子をトロカールに通して体腔内に挿入する際,組織を傷つけないよう注意しながらトロカール中心軸方向に鉗子を挿入しなければならない.この動きには鉗子を術部に正確に近づけること,内視鏡を適確に術部に向けること,鉗子や内視鏡の挿入のための大きな動きを迅速に行うことが要求される.しかし,現在用いているポジショナを使って鉗子を挿入する場合,可動範囲の狭さ,自由度の制約,鉗子軸方向に生じる振れから挿入時に臓器を傷つける可能性があること,細かな位置決めが容易でないことといった問題点を有している.このことから,能動鉗子のためのトロカール中心軸方向1自由度の位置決め機構が必要であろう.さらに,操作性に注目した場合,鉗子挿入の際は大きく動き,腹腔内では鉗子先端の微調整ができる機構が適している.したがって,このような能動鉗子のための1自由度位置決め機構としては粗動・細動の切り替えが簡単に出来ることが望ましい.本研究では,アクチュエータを用いずに粗動・細動の切り替えが可能なハイブリッドポジショナを開発し,それを用いて能動鉗子の位置決めをすることで手術時の初期配置における時間の短縮と安全性の向上を目指す.

    近年,見まねによるヒューマノイドの行動獲得手法に関する研究が注目されている.しかしながら従来研究では,行動の時系列データを単純に座標変換するだけであったり,教示者からの見本行動が失われると行動が生成できないものが多く存在した.この問題への対処として,本研究ではサルやヒトの脳において発見されたミラーニューロンの働きに注目する.ミラーニューロンは他者の行動の理解と自己の行動の生成の双方において発火するニューロン群であり,言語野と非常に近い部位に存在していることから,行動の模倣とシンボル生成との間を強く結び付ける器官であり,この存在がヒトの高次知能の元となるシンボル操作能力を生み出したとする仮説が注目されている.本研究では隠れマルコフモデルと力学的情報処理系を用いてミラーニューロンを工学的にモデル化し,言語発達の問題と行動発達の問題を統一的な工学モデルで実現することを目的としている.
    隠れマルコフモデルを用いるアプローチでは,連続型隠れマルコフモデルによって,行動の表現に使用される基本的な行動要素と,シンボル操作を実現するための基本要素となる原始シンボルの双方を同時に獲得する手法を提案し,ヒューマノイドロボットにおいてその有効性を確認した.
    また,力学的情報処理系のアプローチでは,シンボルの概念を力学系のアトラクタとして実装する設計論を展開し,それをベースとして複数の力学系アトラクタ間を遷移する上位の力学系の設計法を提案した.この階層的な力学系を用いることによって,内部状態であるシンボルを力学的に遷移することによるヒューマノイドロボットの行動生成を実現した.

    For the improvement of the mobile performance and the safety of humanoid robots that share the environment with human, use of hardware characteristic of elasticity is effective. However it is difficult to represent the relationship between task execution and softness. In this paper, we represent the required characteristic of elasticity as dynamic compliance in frequency domain and realize it by active compliance (controlled compliance) using H_∞ control theory and passive compliance using mechanical compliant member. This result causes the design concept of the compliance characteristic and systematic design method of compliance controller. On the other hand, by the effective use of compliance, the humanoid robots have special mobile performance such that by releasing the kinetic energy that is accumulated in compliant members, it obtains the higher power than using only electrical actuators. In this paper, we proposed the design method of 'Skill of Compliance' by controlling charging and discharging of the kinetic energy in compliant members and showed design method of reference trajectory for the skill of compliance.

    The research results are summarized by the following four points :
    1. We developed an efficient forward dynamics computation algorithm for large-scale structure varying kinematic chains such as multiple human figures. The algorithm only requires O(N) computation for the forward dynamics of N articulated bodies. The computation time can be further reduced to O(logN) by applying parallel computation. The algorithm is as efficient as the most advanced forward dynamics algorithms and also applicable to structure-varying kinematic chains.
    2. We developed an inverse kinematics algorithm that computes a whole-body posture from the user-specified positions of a few links, and applied it to CG animation software package. The algorithm enables the users to create animations much easier than using existing CG software packages.
    3. We developed several methods for generating physically feasible motions of human figures by combining the above forward dynamics and the inverse kinematics algorithms. The users can generate physically natural motions through the simple interface.
    4. We developed an interface for game applications utilizing dynamics simulation. Our approach proved to be efficient for such motions as circus and acrobatic ones that are inherently difficult to be captured from human performance.
