Recent advances on filtering and control for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information: A survey
This Article is provided by the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund - Copyright @ 2012 Hindawi PublishingSome recent advances on the filtering and control problems for nonlinear stochastic complex systems with incomplete information are surveyed. The incomplete information under consideration mainly includes missing measurements, randomly varying sensor delays, signal quantization, sensor saturations, and signal sampling. With such incomplete information, the developments on various filtering and control issues are reviewed in great detail. In particular, the addressed nonlinear stochastic complex systems are so comprehensive that they include conventional nonlinear stochastic systems, different kinds of complex networks, and a large class of sensor networks. The corresponding filtering and control technologies for such nonlinear stochastic complex systems are then discussed. Subsequently, some latest results on the filtering and control problems for the complex systems with incomplete information are given. Finally, conclusions are drawn and several possible future research directions are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant nos. 61134009, 61104125, 61028008, 61174136, 60974030, and 61074129, the Qing Lan Project of Jiangsu Province of China, the Project sponsored by SRF for ROCS of SEM of China, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council EPSRC of the UK under Grant GR/S27658/01, the Royal Society of the UK, and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation of Germany

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.Some recent advances on the recursive filtering and sliding mode design problems for nonlinear stochastic systems with network-induced phenomena are surveyed. The network-induced phenomena under consideration mainly include missing measurements, fading measurements, signal quantization, probabilistic sensor delays, sensor saturations, randomly occurring nonlinearities, and randomly occurring uncertainties. With respect to these network-induced phenomena, the developments on filtering and sliding mode design problems are systematically reviewed. In particular, concerning the network-induced phenomena, some recent results on the recursive filtering for time-varying nonlinear stochastic systems and sliding mode design for time-invariant nonlinear stochastic systems are given, respectively. Finally, conclusions are proposed and some potential future research works are pointed out.This work was supported in part by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant nos. 61134009, 61329301, 61333012, 61374127 and 11301118, the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) of the UK under Grant no.

Design of Sliding Mode PID Controller with Improved reaching laws for Nonlinear Systems
In this thesis, advanced design technique in sliding mode control (SMC) is
presented with focus on PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) type Sliding
surfaces based Sliding mode control with improved power rate exponential
reaching law for Non-linear systems using Modified Particle Swarm Optimization
(MPSO). To handle large non-linearities directly, sliding mode controller based
on PID-type sliding surface has been designed in this work, where Integral term
ensures fast finite convergence time. The controller parameter for various
modified structures can be estimated using Modified PSO, which is used as an
offline optimization technique. Various reaching law were implemented leading
to the proposed improved exponential power rate reaching law, which also
improves the finite convergence time. To implement the proposed algorithm,
nonlinear mathematical model has to be decrypted without linearizing, and used
for the simulation purposes. Their performance is studied using simulations to
prove the proposed behavior. The problem of chattering has been overcome by
using boundary method and also second order sliding mode method. PI-type
sliding surface based second order sliding mode controller with PD surface
based SMC compensation is also proposed and implemented. The proposed
algorithms have been analyzed using Lyapunov stability criteria. The robustness
of the method is provided using simulation results including disturbance and
10% variation in system parameters. Finally process control based hardware is
implemented (conical tank system)
Minimax Iterative Dynamic Game: Application to Nonlinear Robot Control Tasks
Multistage decision policies provide useful control strategies in
high-dimensional state spaces, particularly in complex control tasks. However,
they exhibit weak performance guarantees in the presence of disturbance, model
mismatch, or model uncertainties. This brittleness limits their use in
high-risk scenarios. We present how to quantify the sensitivity of such
policies in order to inform of their robustness capacity. We also propose a
minimax iterative dynamic game framework for designing robust policies in the
presence of disturbance/uncertainties. We test the quantification hypothesis on
a carefully designed deep neural network policy; we then pose a minimax
iterative dynamic game (iDG) framework for improving policy robustness in the
presence of adversarial disturbances. We evaluate our iDG framework on a
mecanum-wheeled robot, whose goal is to find a ocally robust optimal multistage
policy that achieve a given goal-reaching task. The algorithm is simple and
adaptable for designing meta-learning/deep policies that are robust against
disturbances, model mismatch, or model uncertainties, up to a disturbance
bound. Videos of the results are on the author's website,
