    Get PDF
    This paper is concerned with the adaptive control of continuous-time nonlinear dynamical systems using neural networks. A novel neural network architecture, referred to as a variable neural network, is proposed and shown to be useful in approximating the unknown nonlinearities of dynamical systems. In the variable neural networks, the number of basis functions can be either increased or decreased with time, according to specified design strategies, so that the network will not overfit or underfit the data set. Based on the Gaussian radial basis function (GRBF) variable neural network, an adaptive control scheme is presented. The location of the centers and the determination of the widths of the GRBFs in the variable neural network are analyzed to make a compromise between orthogonality and smoothness. The weight-adaptive laws developed using the Lyapunov synthesis approach guarantee the stability of the overall control scheme, even in the presence of modeling error(s). The tracking errors converge to the required accuracy through the adaptive control algorithm derived by combining the variable neural network and Lyapunov synthesis techniques. The operation of an adaptive control scheme using the variable neural network is demonstrated using two simulated example

    Using fuzzy logic to integrate neural networks and knowledge-based systems

    Outlined here is a novel hybrid architecture that uses fuzzy logic to integrate neural networks and knowledge-based systems. The author's approach offers important synergistic benefits to neural nets, approximate reasoning, and symbolic processing. Fuzzy inference rules extend symbolic systems with approximate reasoning capabilities, which are used for integrating and interpreting the outputs of neural networks. The symbolic system captures meta-level information about neural networks and defines its interaction with neural networks through a set of control tasks. Fuzzy action rules provide a robust mechanism for recognizing the situations in which neural networks require certain control actions. The neural nets, on the other hand, offer flexible classification and adaptive learning capabilities, which are crucial for dynamic and noisy environments. By combining neural nets and symbolic systems at their system levels through the use of fuzzy logic, the author's approach alleviates current difficulties in reconciling differences between low-level data processing mechanisms of neural nets and artificial intelligence systems

    Nonlinear autoregressive moving average-L2 model based adaptive control of nonlinear arm nerve simulator system

    This paper considers the trouble of the usage of approximate strategies for realizing the neural controllers for nonlinear SISO systems. In this paper, we introduce the nonlinear autoregressive moving average (NARMA-L2) model which might be approximations to the NARMA model. The nonlinear autoregressive moving average (NARMA-L2) model is an precise illustration of the input–output behavior of finite-dimensional nonlinear discrete time dynamical systems in a neighborhood of the equilibrium state. However, it isn't always handy for purposes of neural networks due to its nonlinear dependence on the manipulate input. In this paper, nerves system based arm position sensor device is used to degree the precise arm function for nerve patients the use of the proposed systems. In this paper, neural network controller is designed with NARMA-L2 model, neural network controller is designed with NARMA-L2 model system identification based predictive controller and neural network controller is designed with NARMA-L2 model based model reference adaptive control system. Hence, quite regularly, approximate techniques are used for figuring out the neural controllers to conquer computational complexity. Comparison were made among the neural network controller with NARMA-L2 model, neural network controller with NARMA-L2 model system identification based predictive controller and neural network controller with NARMA-L2 model reference based adaptive control for the preferred input arm function (step, sine wave and random signals). The comparative simulation result shows the effectiveness of the system with a neural network controller with NARMA-L2 model based model reference adaptive control system.

    Adaptive Neural Network Fixed-Time Control Design for Bilateral Teleoperation With Time Delay.

    Get PDF
    In this article, subject to time-varying delay and uncertainties in dynamics, we propose a novel adaptive fixed-time control strategy for a class of nonlinear bilateral teleoperation systems. First, an adaptive control scheme is applied to estimate the upper bound of delay, which can resolve the predicament that delay has significant impacts on the stability of bilateral teleoperation systems. Then, radial basis function neural networks (RBFNNs) are utilized for estimating uncertainties in bilateral teleoperation systems, including dynamics, operator, and environmental models. Novel adaptation laws are introduced to address systems' uncertainties in the fixed-time convergence settings. Next, a novel adaptive fixed-time neural network control scheme is proposed. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, the bilateral teleoperation systems are proved to be stable in fixed time. Finally, simulations and experiments are presented to verify the validity of the control algorithm

    Multi-GPU Development of a Neural Networks Based Reconstructor for Adaptive Optics

    Get PDF
    Aberrations introduced by the atmospheric turbulence in large telescopes are compensated using adaptive optics systems, where the use of deformable mirrors and multiple sensors relies on complex control systems. Recently, the development of larger scales of telescopes as the E-ELT or TMT has created a computational challenge due to the increasing complexity of the new adaptive optics systems. The Complex Atmospheric Reconstructor based on Machine Learning (CARMEN) is an algorithm based on artificial neural networks, designed to compensate the atmospheric turbulence. During recent years, the use of GPUs has been proved to be a great solution to speed up the learning process of neural networks, and different frameworks have been created to ease their development. The implementation of CARMEN in different Multi-GPU frameworks is presented in this paper, along with its development in a language originally developed for GPU, like CUDA. This implementation offers the best response for all the presented cases, although its advantage of using more than one GPU occurs only in large networks
