摘要
En 中文
The intelligent soft robot has received wide attention from both academia and the industry due to its remarkable adaptability. It performs intelligent behavioral learning and evolved morphologies in unpredictable environmental conditions. However, designing a soft robot with a well-adapted morphology involves searching through a large number of possible structures. Furthermore, to learn control tasks in diverse environments, the robot performs computationally intensive numerical simulations, which is time-consuming for evaluating the performance of robots. To address both issues, a multi-fidelity evolutionary algorithm is proposed, which consists of three main components. Firstly, a niching-based fidelity adjustment strategy is introduced to significantly reduce the evaluation cost by training the controller of each robot for only a small number of simulation steps. In particular, considering the estimation errors of the low-fidelity evaluation, the population is divided into multiple subpopulations with different fidelity levels for parallel optimization. Secondly, an effective morphology transfer strategy is proposed to improve the quality of offspring by transferring the local structure of robots in different subpopulations. Finally, a fast local search is developed to enhance the search efficiency of the algorithm without performing additional control simulations. The experimental results on 31 test tasks demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the SOTA design algorithms on 25 test tasks, especially when the computational budget is limited. Compared to the baseline algorithms, our algorithm reduces the computational cost by 60$\%$% while achieving similar performance.
