Abstract
Joint torque sensory feedback is an effective technique for achieving high-performance robot force and motion control. However, most robots are not equipped with joint torque sensors, and it is difficult to add them without changing the joint's mechanical structure. A method for estimating joint torque that exploits the existing structural elasticity of robotic joints with harmonic drive transmission is proposed in this paper. In the presented joint torque estimation method, motor-side and link-side position measurements along with a proposed harmonic drive compliance model, are used to realize stiff and sensitive joint torque estimation, without the need for adding an additional elastic body and using strain gauges to measure the joint torque. The proposed method has been experimentally studied and its performance is compared with measurements of a commercial torque sensor. The results have attested the effectiveness of the proposed torque estimation method.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
