An analytical comparison of a neural network and a model-basedadaptive controller

A neural network inverse dynamics controller with adjustable weights is compared with a computed-torque type adaptive controller. Lyapunov stability techniques, usually applied to adaptive systems, are used to derive a globally asymptotically stable adaptation law for a single-layer neural network controller that bears similarities to the well-known delta rule for neural networks. This alternative learning rule allows the learning rates of each connection weight to be individually adjusted to give faster convergence. The role of persistently exciting inputs in ensuring parameter convergence, often mentioned in the context of adaptive systems, is emphasized in relation to the convergence of neural network weights. A coupled, compound pendulum system is used to develop inverse dynamics controllers based on adaptive and neural network techniques. Adaptation performance is compared for a model-based adaptive controller and a simple neural network utilizing both delta-rule learning and the alternative adaptation law.     

Neural-network-based robust adaptive control for a class of nonlinear systems

In this study, a robust adaptive control (RAC) system is developed for a class of nonlinear systems. The RAC system is comprised of a computation controller and a robust compensator. The computation controller containing a radial basis function (RBF) neural network is the principal controller, and the robust compensator can provide the smooth and chattering-free stability compensation. The RBF neural network is used to approximate the system dynamics, and the adaptive laws are derived to on-line tune the parameters of the neural network so as to achieve favorable estimation performance. From the Lyapunov stability analysis, it is shown that all signals in the closed-loop RBAC system are uniformly ultimately bounded. To investigate the effectiveness of the RAC system, the design methodology is applied to control two nonlinear systems: a wing rock motion system and a Chua’s chaotic circuit system. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed RAC system can achieve favorable tracking performance with unknown of the system dynamics.     

Robust output feedback control of nonlinear stochastic systems using neural networks

We present an adaptive output feedback controller for a class of uncertain stochastic nonlinear systems. The plant dynamics is represented as a nominal linear system plus nonlinearities. In turn, these nonlinearities are decomposed into a part, obtained as the best approximation given by neural networks, plus a remaining part which is treated as uncertainties, modeling approximation errors, and neglected dynamics. The weights of the neural network are tuned adaptively by a Lyapunov design. The proposed controller is obtained through robust optimal design and combines together parameter projection, control saturation, and high-gain observers. High performances are obtained in terms of large errors tolerance as shown through simulations.     

Online Adaptive Approximate Optimal Tracking Control with Simplified Dual Approximation Structure for Continuous-time Unknown Nonlinear Systems

This paper proposes an online adaptive approximate solution for the infinite-horizon optimal tracking control problem of continuous-time nonlinear systems with unknown dynamics. The requirement of the complete knowledge of system dynamics is avoided by employing an adaptive identifier in conjunction with a novel adaptive law, such that the estimated identifier weights converge to a small neighborhood of their ideal values. An adaptive steady-state controller is developed to maintain the desired tracking performance at the steady-state, and an adaptive optimal controller is designed to stabilize the tracking error dynamics in an optimal manner. For this purpose, a critic neural network (NN) is utilized to approximate the optimal value function of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, which is used in the construction of the optimal controller. The learning of two NNs, i.e., the identifier NN and the critic NN, is continuous and simultaneous by means of a novel adaptive law design methodology based on the parameter estimation error. Stability of the whole system consisting of the identifier NN, the critic NN and the optimal tracking control is guaranteed using Lyapunov theory; convergence to a near-optimal control law is proved. Simulation results exemplify the effectiveness of the proposed method.      

Adaptive neural sliding mode compensator for a class of nonlinear systems with unmodeled uncertainties

This paper addresses the problem of adaptive neural sliding mode control for a class of multi-input multi-output nonlinear system. The control strategy is an inverse nonlinear controller combined with an adaptive neural network with sliding mode control using an on-line learning algorithm. The adaptive neural network with sliding mode control acts as a compensator for a conventional inverse controller in order to improve the control performance when the system is affected by variations in its entire structure (kinematics and dynamics). The controllers are obtained by using Lyapunov's stability theory. Experimental results of a case study show that the proposed method is effective in controlling dynamic systems with unexpected large uncertainties.

An RBF neural network-based adaptive control for SISO linearisable nonlinear systems

An RBF neural network-based adaptive control is proposed for Single-Input and Single-Output (SISO) linearisable nonlinear systems in this paper. It is shown that a SISO nonlinear system is first linearised by using the differential geometric approach in the state space, and the linearised nonlinear system is then treated as a partially known system. The known dynamics are used to design a nominal feedback controller to stabilise the nominal system, and an adaptive RBF neural network-based compensator is then designed to compensate for the effects of uncertain dynamics. The main function of the RBF neural network in this work is to adaptively learn the upper bound of the system uncertainty, and the output of the neural network is then used to adaptively adjust the gain of the compensator so that the strong robustness with respect to unknown dynamics can be obtained, and the tracking error between the plant output and the desired reference signal can asymptotically converge to zero. A simulation example is performed in support of the proposed scheme.     

Stable fuzzy neural tracking control of a class of unknown nonlinear systems based on fuzzy hierarchy error approach

In this paper, a stable fuzzy neural tracking control of a class of unknown nonlinear systems based on the fuzzy hierarchy approach is proposed. The adaptive fuzzy neural controller is constructed from the fuzzy neural network with a set of fuzzy rules. The corresponding network parameters are adjusted online according to the control law and update law for the purpose of controlling the plant to track a given trajectory. A stability analysis of the unknown nonlinear system is discussed based on the Lyapunov principle. In order to improve the convergence of the nonlinear dynamical systems, a fuzzy hierarchy error approach (FHEA) algorithm is incorporated into the adaptive update and control scheme. The simulation results for an unstable nonlinear plant demonstrate the control effectiveness of the proposed adaptive fuzzy neural controller and are consistent with the theoretical analysis.     

Adaptive recurrent neural network control using a structure adaptation algorithm

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.     

An optimal dynamic inversion-based neuro-adaptive approach for treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia

Combining the advanced techniques of optimal dynamic inversion and model-following neuro-adaptive control design, an innovative technique is presented to design an automatic drug administration strategy for effective treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). A recently developed nonlinear mathematical model for cell dynamics is used to design the controller (medication dosage). First, a nominal controller is designed based on the principle of optimal dynamic inversion. This controller can treat the nominal model patients (patients who can be described by the mathematical model used here with the nominal parameter values) effectively. However, since the system parameters for a realistic model patient can be different from that of the nominal model patients, simulation studies for such patients indicate that the nominal controller is either inefficient or, worse, ineffective; i.e. the trajectory of the number of cancer cells either shows non-satisfactory transient behavior or it grows in an unstable manner. Hence, to make the drug dosage history more realistic and patient-specific, a model-following neuro-adaptive controller is augmented to the nominal controller. In this adaptive approach, a neural network trained online facilitates a new adaptive controller. The training process of the neural network is based on Lyapunov stability theory, which guarantees both stability of the cancer cell dynamics as well as boundedness of the network weights. From simulation studies, this adaptive control design approach is found to be very effective to treat the CML disease for realistic patients. Sufficient generality is retained in the mathematical developments so that the technique can be applied to other similar nonlinear control design problems as well.

ILC-Based Fixed-Structure Controller Design for Output PDF Shaping in Stochastic Systems Using LMI Techniques

In this paper, a generalized state-space controller design for the shaping of the output probability density function (PDF) is presented for non-Gaussian dynamical stochastic systems. A radial basis function (RBF) neural network is used to approximate the output PDF of the system. Such a neural network consists of a number of weights and corresponding basis functions. Using such an approximation, the dynamics of the original stochastic system can be expressed as the dynamics between the control input and the weights of the RBF neural network. The task of output PDF control can therefore be reduced to a RBF weight control together with an adaptive tuning of the basis function parameters (i.e., the centers and widths of the basis functions). To achieve this aim, the control horizon is divided into certain intervals hereinafter called batches. Using these definitions, the whole control strategy consists of three stages, namely (a) sub-space parameter identification of the dynamic nonlinear model (that relates the control signal to the weights of the RBF neural network); (b) Weight tracking controller design using an LMI-based convex optimization technique; and (c) RBF basis functions shape tuning in terms of their centers and widths using an iterative learning control (ILC) framework. Among the above stages, the first two are performed within each batch, while stage (c) is carried out between any two adjacent batches. Such an algorithm has the advantage of the batch-by-batch improvement of the closed-loop output PDF tracking performance. Moreover, the controller mentioned in stage (b) is a general controller in a state-space form. Stability analysis has been performed and simulation results are included to show the effectiveness of the proposed method, where encouraging results have been made.
