Abstract :
Recent biological studies reveals that animals utilize (or exploit) biological fluctuation to achieve flexibility and robustness against environmental disturbances. In this paper, we propose a simple but flexible control mechanism inspired by biological adaptation mechanism. Experimental results show that our proposed method can be applied to the control of a robot without prior knowledge about the robot.
