An alternative minimal entropy control strategy is also provided for the case that no target PDF is available.Finally,illustrative examples indicate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.     

输出概率密度函数形状的多步预测控制

A predictive control strategy is proposed for the shaping of the output probability density function (PDF) of linear stochastic systems. The B-spline neural network is used to set up the output PDF model and therefore converts the PDF-shaping into the control of B-spline weights vector. The Diophantine equation is then introduced to formulate the predictive PDF model, based on which a moving-horizon control algorithm is developed so as to realize the predictive PDF tracking performance.

Robust fault diagnosis for non-Gaussian stochastic systems based on the rational square-root approximation model

The task of robust fault detection and diagnosis of stochastic distribution control （SDC） systems with uncertainties is to use the measured input and the system output PDFs to still obtain possible faults information of the system. Using the rational square-root B-spline model to represent the dynamics between the output PDF and the input, in this paper, a robust nonlinear adaptive observer-based fault diagnosis algorithm is presented to diagnose the fault in the dynamic part of such systems with model uncertainties. When certain conditions are satisfied, the weight vector of the rational square-root B-spline model proves to be bounded. Conver- gency analysis is performed for the error dynamic system raised from robust fault detection and fault diagnosis phase. Computer simulations are given to demon- strate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, an active fault tolerant control strategy is developed to compensate for the effect of actuator fault in the presence of non-measurable rate on the actuator second-order dynamics. The proposed control scheme is a combination between multiple model and adaptive reconfiguration control. By means of the designed method, the system output can track that of the reference model asymptotically, and the simulation results have illustrated the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.     

Constructing C~1 Continuous Surface on Irregular Quad Meshes

A new method is proposed for surface construction on irregular quad meshes as extensions to uniform B-spline surfaces. Given a number of control points, which form a regular or irregular quad mesh, a weight function is constructed for each control point. The weight function is defined on a local domain and is C1 continuous. Then the whole surface is constructed by the weighted combination of all the control points. The property of the new method is that the surface is defined by piecewise Cl bi-cubic rational parametric polynomial with each quad face. It is an extension to uniform B-spline surfaces in the sense that its definition is an analogy of the B-spline surface, and it produces a uniform bi-cubic B-spline surface if the control mesh is a regular quad mesh. Examples produced by the new method are also included.     

Stochastic Distribution Control of Singular Systems: Output PDF Shaping

This paper presents a new algorithm designed to control the shape of the output probability density function (PDF) of singular systems subjected to non-Gaussian input. The aim is to select a control input uk such that the output PDF is made as close as possible to a given PDF. Based on the B-spline neural network approximation of the output PDF, the control algorithm is formulated by extending the developed PDF control strategies of non-singular systems to singular systems. It has been shown that under certain conditions the stability of the closed-loop system can be guaranteed. Simulation examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.     

基于神经网络补偿的非线性时滞系统时滞正反馈控制

A new adaptive time-delay positive feedback controller (ATPFC) is presented for a class of nonlinear time-delay systems. The proposed control scheme consists of a neural networks-based identification and a time-delay positive feedback controller. Two high-order neural networks (HONN) incorporated with a special dynamic identification model are employed to identify the nonlinear system. Based on the identified model, local linearization compensation is used to deal with the unknown nonlinearity of the system. A time-delay-free inverse model of the linearized system and a desired reference model are utilized to constitute the feedback controller, which can lead the system output to track the trajectory of a reference model. Rigorous stability analysis for both the identification and the tracking error of the closed-loop control system is provided by means of Lyapunov stability criterion. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Online correction MPC strategy for spatially-distributed system based on PCA method

In this paper, the online correction model predictive control (MPC) strategy is presented for partial dif- ferential equation (PDE) unknown spatially-distributed systems (SDSs). The low-dimensional MIMO models are obtained using principal component analysis (PCA) method from the high-dimensional spatio-temporal data. Though the linear low- dimensional model is easy for control design, it is a linear approximation for nonlinear SDSs. Thus, the MPC strategy is proposed based on the online correction low-dimensional models, where the state at a previous time is used to correct the output of low-dimensional models and the spatial output is correct by the average deviation of the historical data. The simulations demonstrated show the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed methodologies.     

Output Feedback Tracking Control for a Class of Switched Nonlinear Systems with Time-varying Delay

This paper studies the problem of tracking control for a class of switched nonlinear systems with time-varying delay. Based on the average dwell-time and piecewise Lyapunov functional methods, a new exponential stability criterion is obtained for the switched nonlinear systems. The designed output feedback H∞controller can be obtained by solving a set of linear matrix inequalities(LMIs).Moreover, the proposed method does not need that a common Lyapunov function exists for the switched systems, and the switching signal just depends on time. A simulation example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design scheme.

Constrained discrete-time PI controller design for output PDFs of stochastic systems with time delays

This article presents a new proportional-integral (PI) tracking control strategy for non-Gaussian stochastic systems based on a square root B-spline model for the output probability density functions (PDFs). Following the square root B-spline approximation to the measured output PDF, a non-linear discrete-time dynamical model can be established between the control input and the weights related to the PDFs. It is noted that the PDF tracking is transformed to a constrained dynamical tracking control problem for weight dynamics. For the non-linear discrete-time weight model including time-delay terms and exogenous disturbances, convex linear matrix inequality optimisation algorithms are used to design a generalised PI controller such that stabilisation, state constraint and tracking performance can be guaranteed simultaneously. Furthermore, in order to enhance the robustness, the peak-to-peak measure index is applied to optimise the tracking performance. Simulations are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.

Probability density function of bubble size based reagent dosage predictive control for copper roughing flotation

As an effective measurement indicator of bubble stability, bubble size structure is believed to be closely related to flotation performance in copper roughing flotation. Moreover, reagent dosage has a very important influence on bubble size structure. In this paper, a novel reagent dosage predictive control method based on probability density function (PDF) of bubble size is proposed to implement the indices of roughing circuit. Firstly, the froth images captured in the copper roughing are segmented by using a two-pass watershed algorithm. In order to characterize bubble size structure with non-Gaussian feature, an entropy based B-spline estimator is hence investigated to depict the PDF of the bubble size. Since the weights of B-spline are interrelated and related to the reagent dosage, a multi-output least square support vector machine (MLS-SVM) is applied to depict a dynamic relationship between the weights and the reagent dosage. Finally, an entropy based optimization algorithm is proposed to determine reagent dosage in order to implement tracking control for the PDF of the output bubble size. Experimental results can show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
