📝 Abstract
CMDIR extends Manifold-Decomposed Impedance Retargeting (MDIR) to transform fixed-impedance demonstrations into continuous variable-impedance controllers, which can also serve as structured supervision for imitation learning. Continuous Task-Manifold Impedance Representation (TMIR) pairs an evolving task frame with controller instructions. Demo-relative Compromise dynamics retain moving-basis transport and control/physical metric mismatch, yielding displacement, reaction-impulse, and perturbation-sensitivity criteria. Quality-to-Fast automatically compiles a solver structure from development paths within a predefined finite space, re-instantiates that structure for each demonstration, and certifies the resulting candidate by multi-resolution evaluation. Across 225 retargeted-controller trials in three real contact tasks, full CMDIR improves mean task-proxy retention and reduces mean pose deviation, force fluctuation, and peak force relative to discrete MDIR. FastMPO achieves a $5.8$--$9.4\times$ speedup over C-MPO with comparable closed-loop outcomes. Downstream experiments demonstrate learnability of the complete TMIR supervision interface; lower force fluctuation and peak force are observed among successful executions, while completion reliability remains uneven across tasks and environments.
