Assignee: PREFERRED NETWORKS, INC.
Field: Handling (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B  G | IPC B  G

Claim 0:
1. A robot system, comprising:
at least one memory; and
at least one processor configured to:
obtain a state variable representing a state of a first robot when a first human and the first robot work cooperatively,
obtain an output from a neural network having the state variable as input information, and
control, based on the output from the neural network, an action of the first robot when the first human and the first robot work cooperatively,

wherein the neural network has been updated, based on reinforcement learning using a reward for at least a working efficiency when at least one human and at least one robot work cooperatively, to set the action of the first robot that leads to at least a higher working efficiency when the first human and the first robot work cooperatively,
wherein the at least one human includes at least one of the first human or a second, different human,
wherein the at least one robot includes at least one of the first robot or a second, different robot, and
wherein the reward is set based on at least a value of the working efficiency when the at least one human and the at least one robot work cooperatively.
