Fault detection for nonlinear discrete-time systems via deterministic learning

Recently, an approach for the rapid detection of small oscillation faults based on deterministic learning theory was proposed for continuous-time systems. In this paper, a fault detection scheme is proposed for a class of nonlinear discrete-time systems via deterministic learning. By using a discrete-time extension of deterministic learning algorithm, the general fault functions (i.e., the internal dynamics) underlying normal and fault modes of nonlinear discrete-time systems are locally-accurately approximated by discrete-time dynamical radial basis function (RBF) networks. Then, a bank of estimators with the obtained knowledge of system dynamics embedded is constructed, and a set of residuals are obtained and used to measure the differences between the dynamics of the monitored system and the dynamics of the trained systems. A fault detection decision scheme is presented according to the smallest residual principle, i.e., the occurrence of a fault can be detected in a discrete-time setting by comparing the magnitude of residuals. The fault detectability analysis is carried out and the upper bound of detection time is derived. A simulation example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Modeling of nonlinear dynamical systems based on deterministic learning and structural stability基于确定学习和结构稳定理论的非线性动态系统建模

Recently, a deterministic learning (DL) theory was proposed for accurate identification of system dynamics for nonlinear dynamical systems. In this paper, we further investigate the problem of modeling or identification of the partial derivative of dynamics for dynamical systems. Firstly, based on the locally accurate identification of the unknown system dynamics via deterministic learning, the modeling of its partial derivative of dynamics along the periodic or periodic-like trajectory is obtained by using the mathematical concept of directional derivative. Then, with accurately identified system dynamics and the partial derivative of dynamics, a C¹-norm modeling approach is proposed from the perspective of structural stability, which can be used for quantitatively measuring the topological similarities between different dynamical systems. This provides more incentives for further applications in the classification of dynamical systems and patterns, as well as the prediction of bifurcation and chaos. Simulation studies are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of this modeling approach.     

Deterministic Learning and Rapid Dynamical Pattern Recognition

Recognition of temporal/dynamical patterns is among the most difficult pattern recognition tasks. In this paper, based on a recent result on deterministic learning theory, a deterministic framework is proposed for rapid recognition of dynamical patterns. First, it is shown that a time-varying dynamical pattern can be effectively represented in a time-invariant and spatially distributed manner through deterministic learning. Second, a definition for characterizing similarity of dynamical patterns is given based on system dynamics inherently within dynamical patterns. Third, a mechanism for rapid recognition of dynamical patterns is presented, by which a test dynamical pattern is recognized as similar to a training dynamical pattern if state synchronization is achieved according to a kind of internal and dynamical matching on system dynamics. The synchronization errors can be taken as the measure of similarity between the test and training patterns. The significance of the paper is that a completely dynamical approach is proposed, in which the problem of dynamical pattern recognition is turned into the stability and convergence of a recognition error system. Simulation studies are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach     

Electrocardiogram (ECG) pattern modeling and recognition via deterministic learning

A method for electrocardiogram （ECG） pattern modeling and recognition via deterministic learning theory is presented in this paper. Instead of recognizing ECG signals beat-to-beat, each ECG signal which contains a number of heartbeats is recognized. The method is based entirely on the temporal features （i.e., the dynamics） of ECG patterns, which contains complete information of ECG patterns. A dynamical model is employed to demonstrate the method, which is capable of generating synthetic ECG signals. Based on the dynamical model, the method is shown in the following two phases： the identification （training） phase and the recognition （test） phase. In the identification phase, the dynamics of ECG patterns is accurately modeled and expressed as constant RBF neural weights through the deterministic learning. In the recognition phase, the modeling results are used for ECG pattern recognition. The main feature of the proposed method is that the dynamics of ECG patterns is accurately modeled and is used for ECG pattern recognition. Experimental studies using the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt （PTB） database are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.     

Deterministic learning from neural control for uncertain nonlinear pure‐feedback systems by output feedback

The essence of intelligence lies in the acquisition/learning and utilization of knowledge. However, how to implement learning in dynamical environments for nonlinear systems is a challenging issue. This article investigates the deterministic learning (DL) control problem for uncertain pure‐feedback systems by output feedback, which achieves the human‐like learning and control in a simple way. To reduce the complexity of control design and analysis, first, by combining an appropriate system transformation, the original pure‐feedback system is transformed into a simple normal nonaffine system. An observer is then introduced to estimate the transformed system states. Based on the backstepping and dynamic surface control techniques, a simple adaptive neural control scheme is first developed to guarantee the finite time convergence of the tracking error using only one neural network (NN) approximator. Second, through DL, the exponential convergence of the NN weights is obtained with the satisfaction of partial persistent excitation condition. Thus, locally accurate approximation/learning of the transformed unknown system dynamics is achieved and stored as constant NNs. Finally, by utilizing the stored knowledge, an experience‐based controller is constructed and a novel learning control scheme is further proposed to improve the control performance without any further adaptation online for the estimate neural weights. Simulation results have been given to illustrate that the proposed scheme not only can learn and memorize knowledge like humans but also can utilize experience to achieve superior control performance.     

Deterministic learning and neural control of a class of nonlinear systems toward improved performance

A deterministic learning theory was recently presented which states that an appropriately designed adaptive neural controller can learn the system internal dynamics while attempting to control a class of nonlinear systems in normal form. In this paper, we further investigate deterministic learning of the class of nonlinear systems with relaxed conditions, and neural control of the class of system toward improved performance. Firstly, without the assumption on the upper bound of the derivative of the unknown affine term, an adaptive neural controller is proposed to achieve stability and tracking of the plant states to that of the reference model. When output tracking is achieved, a partial PE condition is satisfied, and deterministic learning from adaptive neural control of the class of nonlinear systems is implemented without the priori knowledge on the upper bound of the derivative of the affine term. Secondly, by utilizing the obtained knowledge of system dynamics, a neural controller with constant RBF networks embedded is presented, in which the learned knowledge can be effectively exploited to achieve stability and improved control performance. Simulation studies are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the results.     

Dynamical pattern recognition for univariate time series and its application to an axial compressor

In this paper, a learning and recognition approach is proposed for univariate time series composed of output measurements of general nonlinear dynamical systems. Firstly, a class of dynamical systems in the canonical form is derived to describe the univariate time series by introducing coordinate transformation. An observer-based deterministic learning technique is then adopted to achieve dynamical modeling of the associated transformed systems of the training univariate time series, and the modeling results in the form of radial basis function network (RBFN) models are stored in a pattern library. Subsequently, multiple observer-based dynamical estimators containing the RBFN models in the pattern library are constructed for a test univariate time series, and a recognition decision scheme is proposed by the derived recognition indicator. On this basis, more concise recognition conditions are provided, which is beneficial for verifying the recognition results. Finally, simulation studies on the Rossler system and aero-engine stall warning verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.     

Neural network adaptive control for a class of nonlinear uncertain dynamical systems with asymptotic stability guarantees.

In this paper, a neuroadaptive control framework for continuous- and discrete-time nonlinear uncertain dynamical systems with input-to-state stable internal dynamics is developed. The proposed framework is Lyapunov based and unlike standard neural network (NN) controllers guaranteeing ultimate boundedness, the framework guarantees partial asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system, that is, asymptotic stability with respect to part of the closed-loop system states associated with the system plant states. The neuroadaptive controllers are constructed without requiring explicit knowledge of the system dynamics other than the assumption that the plant dynamics are continuously differentiable and that the approximation error of uncertain system nonlinearities lie in a small gain-type norm bounded conic sector. This allows us to merge robust control synthesis tools with NN adaptive control tools to guarantee system stability. Finally, two illustrative numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach.     

Hidden control neural architecture modeling of nonlinear timevarying systems and its applications

The application of neural networks to modeling time-invariant nonlinear systems has been difficult for complicated nonstationary signals, such as speech, because the networks are unable to characterize temporal variability. This problem is addressed by proposing a network architecture, called the hidden control neural network (HCNN), for modeling signals generated by nonlinear dynamical systems with restricted time variability. The mapping implemented by a multilayered neural network is allowed to change with time as a function of an additional control input signal. The network is trained using an algorithm based on ;backpropagation' and segmentation algorithms for estimating the unknown control together with the network's parameters. Application of the network to the segmentation and modeling of a signal produced by a time-varying nonlinear system, speaker-independent recognition of spoken connected digits, and online recognition of handwritten characters demonstrates the ability of the HCNN to learn time-varying nonlinear dynamics and its potential for high-performance recognition of signals produced by time-varying sources.     

Adaptive neural control and learning of affine nonlinear systems

This paper presents deterministic learning from adaptive neural network control of affine nonlinear systems with completely unknown system dynamics. Thanks to the learning capability of radial basis function, neural network (NN), stable adaptive NN controller is designed for the unknown affine nonlinear systems. The designed adaptive NN controller is rigorously shown that learning of the unknown closed-loop system dynamics can be achieved during the stable control process because partial persistent excitation condition of some internal signals in the closed-loop system is satisfied. Subsequently, neural learning controller using the knowledge obtained from deterministic learning is constructed to achieve closed-loop stability and improve control performance. Numerical simulation is provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
