SEDS Package: version 1.95 issued on 12 February 2013
This packages contains the SEDS learning algorithm presented in the following
paper:
S. M. Khansari-Zadeh and A. Billard, "Learning Stable Non-Linear Dynamical
Systems with Gaussian Mixture Models", IEEE Transaction on Robotics, 2011.

This source code include two matlab functions: 'demo_Plot_Results.m' and
'demo_SEDS_Learning.m', and 4 subdirectories: 'SEDS_lib', 'GMR_lib', 'models',
and 'Doc'.
demo_Plot_Results: a matlab function illustrating the obtained results using SEDS
for the 24 handwriting motions provided in 'models' folder.
demo_Plot_Learning: a matlab script illustrating how to use SEDS_lib to learn
an arbitrary model from a set of demonstrations.
SEDS_lib: contains code which implements SEDS. SEDS library also depends on
GMR library. See the document 'Doc/SEDS_Slides.pdf' for further
information about how to use this library.
SEDS_Cpp_lib: A ROS package to use SEDS in realtime control. See the document
'Doc/SEDS_Slides.pdf' for further information about how to use
this package.
Extensions: Extensions to SEDS package developed by myself or others. Currently,
there are two packages: Coupled Dynamical Systems (CDS), and
Dynamical systems-based obstacle avoidance.Currently, the SEDS ROS
package only provides an estimate of the desired control policy
(e.g. an estimate of the velocity) based on the current situation of
the robot. The inclusion of the training phase in the ROS package is
a work under progress.
GMR_lib: A library for Gaussian Mixture Model that is called from SEDS library
models: contains a library of 24 handwriting motions recorded from Tablet-PC.
Doc: Includes 3 documents:
1) SEDS_Slides.pdf describes the theory behnid SEDS, detailed information
about how to use SEDS MATLAB and ROS packages, and a description of
extension packages based on SEDS.
2) SEDS_Overview.pdf provides a very general overview of SEDS (without any
mathematical detail) and situate it among the existing approaches in the
literature.
3) Khansari_Billard_SEDS_Derivatives.pdf is a technical report about how the
derivatives of the SEDS optimization is computed. You do NOT need to read
this report if you only want to use SEDS. Reading of this report is only
useful if you want to develop the SEDS.
When running the demos, it is assumed that your current directory is the
SEDS_package directory. Otherwise, you should manually add both the 'SEDS_lib'
and 'GMR_lib' directories to the matab path.
Improvement with respect to previous version:
- Adding SEDS ROS package
- Adding the extension libraries
- Adding the ability to optimize a SEDS model with the objective function of
minimizing the angle between demonstrations velocity and their estimations.
- Providing a more detailed documentation
- Fixing minor bugs
