How Many Training Samples Are Needed for the Inverse Kinematics Solutions by Artificial Neural Networks

ArXi:2605.23583v1 Announce Type: cross Inverse Kinematics (IK) plays a critical role in robotic motion planning and control. The IK solutions of a robot manipulator could be done by conventional ways such as geometric, algebraic, or Jacobian methods, which have drawbacks. The Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have become a promising alternative for approximating IK solutions due to their generalization ability and computational efficiency. This approach basically trains only a few samples of the end effector that are recorded for the solution of the IK problem.
