Dear Connectionist, I'm working in the field of robotics and would like to generate time sequences with a neural net for moving a robot arm along a trajectory. The net should be able to give a trajectory if the end point is given. I have read some papers about time-delay nets and Jordan nets as well as attractor transition nets. Has anybody gained experience with these approaches or found a better one? Is there any code available? I would be grateful if anybody could waste some time sending me some information on these topics.
