Observer-based Finite-time Control of Stochastic Non-strict-feedback Nonlinear Systems

This paper investigates the observer-based adaptive finite-time neural control issue of stochastic non-strict-feedback nonlinear systems. By establishing a state observer and utilizing the approximation property of the neural network, an adaptive neural network output-feedback controller is constructed. The controller solves the issue that the states of stochastic nonlinear system cannot be measured, and assures that all signals in the closed-loop system are bounded. Different from the existing adaptive control researches of stochastic nonlinear systems with unmeasured states, the proposed control scheme can guarantee the finite-time stability of the stochastic nonlinear systems. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the proposed control approach is verified by the simulation results.

     

Predefined-time control for Euler–Lagrange systems with model uncertainties and actuator faults

A novel adaptive predefined-time tracking control algorithm is proposed for the Euler–Lagrange systems (ELSs) with model uncertainties and actuator faults. Compared with traditional finite-time and fixed-time studies, the system output tracking error under the proposed predefined-time controller converges to a small neighborhood of zero in finite time, whose upper bound is exactly a design parameter in the control algorithm. For the uncertain model, radial-based function neural network (RBFNN) is utilized to approximate the continuous uncertain dynamics. To deal with the actuator faults, an adaptive control law is involved in the fault-tolerant controller. In order to achieve the predefined-time bounded, a novel predefined-time sliding mode surface is designed. It is proved that the tracking error vector trajectory of closed-loop system is semi-globally uniformly ultimately predefined-time bounded, and the upper bounds of both the system settling time and the corresponding output tracking error can be adjusted with a simple parameter. Simulation examples finally demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.

Adaptive control for uncertain nonlinear systems based on multiple neural networks.

A new adaptive multiple neural network controller (AMNNC) with a supervisory controller for a class of uncertain nonlinear dynamic systems was developed in this paper. The AMNNC is a kind of adaptive feedback linearizing controller where nonlinearity terms are approximated with multiple neural networks. The weighted sum of the multiple neural networks was used to approximate system nonlinearity for the given task. Each neural network represents the system dynamics for each task. For a job where some tasks are repeated but information on the load is not defined and unknown or varying, the proposed controller is effective because of its capability to memorize control skill for each task with each neural network. For a new task, most similar existing control skills may be used as a starting point of adaptation. With the help of a supervisory controller, the resulting closed-loop system is globally stable in the sense that all signals involved are uniformly bounded. Simulation results on a cartpole system for the changing mass of the pole were illustrated to show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme for the comparison with the conventional adaptive neural network controller (ANNC).

This paper proposes an adaptive recurrent neural network control (ARNNC) system with structure adaptation algorithm for the uncertain nonlinear systems. The developed ARNNC system is composed of a neural controller and a robust controller. The neural controller which uses a self-structuring recurrent neural network (SRNN) is the principal controller, and the robust controller is designed to achieve L ² tracking performance with desired attenuation level. The SRNN approximator is used to online estimate an ideal tracking controller with the online structuring and parameter learning algorithms. The structure learning possesses the ability of both adding and pruning hidden neurons, and the parameter learning adjusts the interconnection weights of neural network to achieve favorable approximation performance. And, by the L ² control design technique, the worst effect of approximation error on the tracking error can be attenuated to be less or equal to a specified level. Finally, the proposed ARNNC system with structure adaptation algorithm is applied to control two nonlinear dynamic systems. Simulation results prove that the proposed ARNNC system with structure adaptation algorithm can achieve favorable tracking performance even unknown the control system dynamics function.

Self-organizing adaptive fuzzy neural control for the synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems with random-varying parameters

This paper proposes a self-organizing adaptive fuzzy neural control (SAFNC) for the synchronization of uncertain chaotic systems with random-varying parameters. The proposed SAFNC system is composed of a computation controller and a robust controller. The computation controller containing a self-organizing fuzzy neural network (SOFNN) identifier is the principle controller. The SOFNN identifier is used to online estimate the compound uncertainties with the structure and parameter learning phases of fuzzy neural network (FNN), simultaneously. The structure-learning phase consists of the growing of membership functions, the splitting of fuzzy rules and the pruning of fuzzy rules, and thus the SOFNN identifier can avoid the time-consuming trial-and-error tuning procedure for determining the network structure of fuzzy neural network. The robust controller is used to attenuate the effects of the approximation error so that the synchronization of chaotic systems is achieved.All the parameter learning algorithms are derived based on the Lyapunov stability theorem to ensure network convergence as well as stable synchronization performance. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, simulation results are illustrated in this paper.     

Neural network-based robust finite-time control for robotic manipulators considering actuator dynamics

A novel neural network-based robust finite-time control strategy is proposed for the trajectory tracking of robotic manipulators with structured and unstructured uncertainties, in which the actuator dynamics is fully considered. The controller, which possesses finite-time convergence and strong robustness, consists of two parts, namely a neural network for approximating the nonlinear uncertainty function and a modified variable structure term for eliminating the approximate error and guaranteeing the finite-time convergence. According to the analysis based on the Lyapunov theory and the relative finite-time stability theory, the neural network is asymptotically convergent and the controlled robotic system is finite time stable. The proposed controller is then verified on a two-link robotic manipulator by simulations and experiments, with satisfactory control performance being obtained even in the presence of various uncertainties and external disturbances.

In this paper, an adaptive neural network (NN) tracking controller is developed for a class of uncertain multi-input multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems with input saturation. Radial basis function neural networks are utilized to approximate the unknown nonlinear functions in the MIMO system. A novel auxiliary system is developed to compensate the effects induced by input saturation (in both magnitude and rate) during tracking control. Endowed with a switching structure that integrates two existing representative auxiliary system designs, this novel auxiliary system improves control performance by preserving their advantages. It provides a comprehensive design structure in which parameters can be adjusted to meet the required control performance. The auxiliary system signal is utilized in both the control law and the neural network weight-update laws. The performance of the resultant closed-loop system is analyzed, and the bound of the transient error is established. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive neural network control.     

Adaptive PI Hermite neural control for MIMO uncertain nonlinear systems

This paper presents an adaptive PI Hermite neural control (APIHNC) system for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) uncertain nonlinear systems. The proposed APIHNC system is composed of a neural controller and a robust compensator. The neural controller uses a three-layer Hermite neural network (HNN) to online mimic an ideal controller and the robust compensator is designed to eliminate the effect of the approximation error introduced by the neural controller upon the system stability in the Lyapunov sense. Moreover, a proportional–integral learning algorithm is derived to speed up the convergence of the tracking error. Finally, the proposed APIHNC system is applied to an inverted double pendulums and a two-link robotic manipulator. Simulation results verify that the proposed APIHNC system can achieve high-precision tracking performance. It should be emphasized that the proposed APIHNC system is clearly and easily used for real-time applications.     

Adaptive neural output feedback finite-time command filtered backstepping control for nonlinear systems with full-state constraints

In this paper, an adaptive neural finite-time control method via barrier Lyapunov function, command filtered backstepping, and output feedback is proposed to solve the tracking problem of uncertain high-order nonlinear systems with full-state constraints and input saturation. By utilizing the neural network (NN) to approximate unknown nonlinear functions, the finite-time command filters are used to filtering the virtual control signals and get the intermediate control signals in a finite time in the backstepping process. Because there are errors between the output of finite-time command filters and the virtual control signals, the error compensation signals are added to eliminate the influence of filtering errors. Based on the proposed control scheme, the states of the system can be constrained in the predetermined region, all signals in the system are bounded in finite time, and the tracking error can converge to the desired region in finite time. At last, a simulation example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
