S3, inputting the actual position point location coordinates detected by the measuring device and the current joint gesture of the robot into a calibration system model for primary parameter identification, and obtaining the parameter values of a transformation matrix of a measuring part in the calibration system model.
Preferably, the measurement part transformation matrix parameter values include transformation matrix initial parameters from the measurement coordinate system of the measurement device to the robot base coordinate system, and transformation matrix initial parameters from the robot end flange coordinate system to the measurement coordinate system of the measurement device.
On the one hand, the step of inputting the actual position point location coordinates detected by the measuring device and the current joint gesture of the robot into the calibration system model for preliminary parameter identification, and the step of obtaining the parameter value of the transformation matrix of the measuring part in the calibration system model specifically comprises the following steps:
inputting the actual position point position coordinates detected by the measuring device and the current joint gesture of the measured robot into a simplified calibration system model, and carrying out parameter identification by adopting an improved index optimization algorithm to obtain the parameter values of a transformation matrix of a measuring part in the simplified calibration system model;
on the other hand, the improved exponential optimization algorithm adopts a least square method to calculate and obtain the initial parameter value of a preset transformation matrix, a random solution set is generated by taking the value as the center, and meanwhile, the population iteration mode is set as the distance between an average solution and the optimal solution in the current winner solution.
In another aspect, the calibration system model is simplified by taking the minimum average distance between the measurement point of the calibration system model and the theoretical calibration coordinate point as a process target to obtain a simplified calibration system model; the initial parameter identification adopts a simplified calibration system model, so as to improve the initial calibration efficiency.
Illustratively, the objective function of the simplified calibration system model may be expressed as:
in the method, in the process of the invention,coordinate values obtained by measuring the laser tracker; />For the theoretical calibration coordinate value under the condition of the same joint angle of the robot, < >>For the target value, N is a positive integer, and min () is a minimization function. The simplified calibration system model is used to achieve a target value +.>Minimizing and thus improving the efficiency of subsequent computations.
Notably, when using the improved exponential optimization algorithm to perform initial parameter search, the improved exponential optimization algorithm is used for optimizing、/>、/>、/>、/>、/>、/>、/>、/>The nine parameters are used for reducing the complexity of the model, so that the calibration efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, the small-range correction process in the later iteration stage is reduced by improving an index optimization algorithm.
Preferably, the specific steps of the improved exponential optimization algorithm are as follows:
step one: the solution set generation mode in the initialization stage is modified, the difference between certain parameters and other parameters in the actual model is too large, so that the sampling space can be filled more uniformly while the population quantity can be reduced, the convergence speed of an optimization algorithm is improved, and the rough calculation is performed by independently using the least square by reducing the complexity of the modelValues and a random solution set is generated centered on the values.
Step two: using an optimization model that follows an exponential distribution, two branches are generated around the search guided solution, one guiding the winning solution to a more optimal iteration and the other guiding the unfavorable solution to the winning solution direction, specifically as follows:
in the method, in the process of the invention,for the next round of solution, < > the>An ith solution for a t-th iteration of the memoryless matrix;vector mean of the current optimal solution, +.>Is winning solution; />The value controls the distance between the winner and the variance,to expand the search space of the guide solution, +.>Representing the share of the current optimal solution in the next generation solution set, and iterating the next generation solution set by the combined action of the three solutions>Standard deviation representing an exponential distribution variable;
step three: modifying the iteration mode of the exploration stage, selecting a reduced exploration range for reducing the time required by iteration, and carrying outThe distance between the average solution and the optimal guiding solution of the current winner set is defined, so that the speed of guiding to the optimal solution is increased. The method comprises the following steps:
wherein,the average value of the current winning set vector is represented by t, which is a positive integer; />In order to adapt the parameters of the device,the value of the product fluctuates and decreases along with the iteration period;
representing the distance of the mean from both random (denoted 1, 2) in the winning solution set;
the vector may be expressed as: />
In a preferred embodiment, to fit the objective function and real-time operation requirements, the following improvements are made to the exponential optimization algorithm:
(1) Modifying the solution set generation mode of the initialization stage: because the difference between some parameters and other parameters in the actual model is too large, in order to reduce the population quantity and fill the sampling space more uniformly, the convergence speed of the optimization algorithm is improved, and the rough calculation is performed by adopting least squareValues and a random solution set is generated centered around this value.
(2) The fully random iterative approach in the original exploration phase is improved to reduce the time required for the iteration: on the one hand by setting the original as the distance of the random value from the mean value in the winning solution setInstead, the distance between the average solution and the optimal guide solution of the current winner set is used, and the aim of reducing the time required by iteration is achieved by selectively reducing the exploration range; on the other hand do not change->The randomness in the iterative process of the original algorithm is reserved, and the possibility of the next generation solution set is reserved.
(3) The improved exponential optimization algorithm also introduces a cosine function to improve the self-adaptive parameters, and the improvement result is that:
wherein,for the number of iterations->To identify the total period. />
The method changes the mode of random decline of the original adaptive parameters, expands the searching range of the early stage, further can quickly search the optimal solution in an iterative way, and reduces the correction process of the small range of the later stage of the iteration.
And (3) carrying out overall identification on 24 parameters of the calibration system model by using an iterative weighting LM algorithm, and improving the robustness and the precision of a calibration result through residual weighting so as to meet the application requirements of the efficient robot in the manufacturing industry.
S4, performing sub-step parameter optimization by combining the theoretical parameter value of the robot and the parameter value of the transformation matrix of the measurement part to obtain a first calibration value of the kinematic parameter of the robot;
in one embodiment, the step S4 specifically includes: substituting the theoretical parameter value of the robot and the parameter value of the transformation matrix of the measurement part into a calibration system model, and optimizing by adopting an iterative weighting LM algorithm to obtain a first calibration value.
Specifically, in order to minimize the linearization error of the whole calibration system model, after the initial parameters of the calibration coordinate system are obtained, the parameters of the calibration system model are accurately identified by using an iterative weighted LM algorithm, and at this time, the objective equation is as follows:
wherein,indicate->Actual measurement and theoretical space coordinate error during iteration; />Is->Iterating the jacobian matrix; />Representing the kth time parameter;
the parameter error obtained by adopting the iteration weighting LM algorithm to carry out the kth iteration is as follows:
in the method, in the process of the invention,
as a matrix of weight factors,
for a preset constant->
I is an identity matrix.
In another embodimentIn an embodiment, the weight factor matrix is:
wherein,
the distance difference value vector is identified for the corresponding coordinate point;
expressed as: />
Is->Standard deviation of (2).
It is noted that after the initial parameter estimation value is obtained, in order to improve the robustness and the precision of the calibration result, the residual error of each group of measurement positions and theoretical position distances is weighted, different weights are given to different data points through residual error weighting, and more attention of the algorithm is focused on the data points with larger errors. The invention uses the reciprocal of the sum of the effective residuals to represent the weight factor, and uses the standard deviation of the residuals to select the basis of the weight in consideration of the fact that the whole residual in the model is small but still has fluctuation. The residual fluctuation is measured through standard deviation, so that the influence of abnormal values can be greatly reduced.
S5, when the first calibration value is within the error threshold range, taking the first calibration value as a final calibration value, otherwise, respectively correcting the theoretical parameter value of the robot and the parameter value of the transformation matrix of the measurement part through the first calibration value, and re-executing S4.
Specifically, a preliminary calibration value is obtained after the preliminary identification is completed, and parameters in the model are corrected by using the calibration value, so that a more accurate model is obtainedThe accurate calibration system model can further enable the position error of the tail end to be smaller. Repeating the above steps until the condition is satisfiedAnd when the whole calibration process is finished. Wherein (1)>Is->Measuring and theoretical space coordinate errors during iteration; />Measuring and theoretical space coordinate errors for the k+1th iteration; />And when the algorithm iteration is a preset value, the algorithm iteration is ended after the descending space of the current algorithm iteration and the next algorithm iteration is small.
After the measuring points are compensated, the displayed error curve is wholly reduced, the fluctuation is stable, and the error fluctuation amplitude is reduced; the greater the error, the more pronounced the effect of the compensation. And the degree of dispersion in the x, y and z directions is well reduced, and especially the fluctuation of errors in the y axis direction and the z axis direction is obviously reduced. Experimental data shows that after the simulation compensation of the model parameters of the robot is performed, the average value of the position errors of the robot is reduced by 80.28%, and the root mean square error is reduced by 71.61%. According to the subsequent verification data, the average value and the root mean square error of the robot position error are respectively reduced by 57.13 percent and 52.44 percent, which proves the effectiveness of the calibration identification result of the robot. The calibration effect of the invention has good robustness in combination with experimental data, and the invention has good generalization capability, is suitable for common point positions, and has wide application prospect.
