Abstract :
A new approach to the modeling of robot manipulators is presented. Usually, system descriptions are based on a set of differential equations which, due to their nature, lead to very precise results and strategies. However, they need laborious computations, and, therefore, methods based on alternative mathematical concepts are required. The proposed statistical model overcomes these problems and give clear guidelines for the optimization of robot performance
