However, on account of the difference between the multibody model of the humanoid robot and the simple inverted pendulum model, the ZMP error might be bigger than the polygon of support and the robot falls down. To overcome this limitation, we propose to improve the accuracy of the inverted pendulum model using system identification techniques. The candidate model is a quadratic in the state space representation. To identify this system, we propose an identification method that is the result of the comprehensive application of system identification to dynamic systems. Based on the quadratic system, we also propose controlling algorithms for on-line and off-line walking pattern generation for humanoid robots. The efficiency of the quadratic system and the walking pattern generation methods has been successfully shown using dynamical simulation and conducting real experiments on the cybernetic human HRP-4C.}, publisher = {TAYLOR \& FRANCIS LTD}, address = {2-4 PARK SQUARE, MILTON PARK, ABINGDON OR14 4RN, OXON, ENGLAND} }
