  • Intelligent Control is an extended paradigm that subsumes both control and AI paradigms, each of which is limited by its own abstractions. Autonomy, as a design goal, offers an arena where both control and AI paradigms must be applied -and a challenge to the viability of both as independent entities. We discuss hierarchical event-based control architectures in which AI and Control paradigms can be integrated within a model-based approach. In a niodel-based system, knowledge is encapsulated in the form of models at the various layers to support the predefined system objectives. Concepts are illustrated with a robotmanaged space-borne chemical laboratory.

  • An algorithm to improve the efficiency of the hierarchical routing in ZigBee Networks is proposed. By forwarding the data to the nearest neighbor in the hierarchy, more efficient path can be achieved without any control and memory overhead. Simulation results shows the proposed algorithm provides about 20% shorter path.

  • This paper suggests a control method for efficient topology/parameter evolution in a bond-graph-based GP design framework that automatically synthesizes designs for multi-domain, lumped parameter dynamic systems, We adopt a hierarchical breeding control mechanism with fitness-level-dependent differences to obtain better balancing of topology/parameter search - biased toward topological changes at low fitness levels, and toward parameter changes at high fitness levels. As a testbed for this approach, an eigenvalue assignment problem, which is to find bond graph models exhibiting minimal distance errors from target sets of eigenvalues, was tested and showed improved performance for various sets of eigenvalues.

  • In this paper, a new hierarchical fuzzy inference system (HFIS) using structured Takagi-Sugeno type fuzzy inference units(FIUs) is proposed. The proposed HFIS not only solves the rule explosion problem in conventional HFIS, but also overcomes the readability problem caused by the structure where outputs of previous level FIUs are used as input variables directly. Gradient descent algorithm is used for adaptation of fuzzy rules. The ball and beam control is performed in computer simulation to illustrate the performance of the proposed controller.

  • To achieve a fast dynamic response and to solve the multi-objective control problems of the output currents, capacitor voltages and system constraints, this paper proposes a deadbeat and hierarchical predictive control with space-vector modulation (DB-HPC-SVM) for five-level nested neutral point piloted (NNPP) converters. First, deadbeat control (DBC) is adopted to track the reference currents by calculating the deadbeat reference voltage vector (DB-RVV). After that, all of the candidate switching sequences that synthesize the DB-RVV are obtained by using the fast SVM principle. Furthermore, according to the redundancies of the switch combination and switching sequence, a hierarchical model predictive control (MPC) is presented to select the optimal switch combination (OSC) and optimal switching sequence (OSS). The proposed DB-HPC-SVM maintains the advantages of DBC and SVM, such as fast dynamic response, zero steady-state error and fixed switching frequency, and combines the characteristics of MPC, such as multi-objective control and simple inclusion of constraints. Finally, comparative simulation and experimental results of a five-level NNPP converter verify the correctness of the proposed DB-HPC-SVM.

  • In this paper, we propose an approach to design multi-fuzzy controllers for the superheat and the low pressure that have an influence on energy efficiency and stabilization of air conditioning system with multi-evaporators. Air conditioning system with multi-evaporators is composed of compressor, condenser, several evaporators and several expansion valves. It is quite difficult to control the air conditioning system because the change of the refrigerant condition give an impact on the overall air conditioning system. In order to solve the drawback, we design multi-fuzzy controllers which control simultaneously both three expansion valve and one compressor for the superheat and the low pressure of air conditioning system. The proposed multi fuzzy controllers are given as a kinds of controller types such as a simplified fuzzy inference type. Here the scaling factors of each fuzzy controller are efficiently adjusted by Hierarchical Fair Competition-based Genetic Algorithms. The values of performance index of the simulation results of the A company type compare with simulation results of simplified inference type.

  • State-dependent call admission control (SDCAC) is proposed to make efficient use of scarce wireless resource in a hierarchical wireless network with heterogeneous traffic. With SDCAC, new calls are accepted according to an acceptance probability taking account of not only cell dwell time but also call holding time and system state (i.e., occupied bandwidth). An analytical method is developed to calculate performance measures of interest, e.g., new call blocking probability, forced termination probability, over. all weighted blocking probability. Numerical results with not only stationary but nonstationary traffic loads are presented to show the robustness of SDCAC. It is shown that SDCAC performs much better than the other considered schemes under nonstationary traffic load.

  • Dynamic optimization with partially structured model in a slurry-phase HDPE reactor is implemented by the modified hierarchical dynamic optimization. Optimal trajectories of MI and density of HDPE are calculated as controlled variables and optimal profiles of the concentrations of ethylene, hydrogen and comonomer are calculated as manipulated variables in dynamic optimization. MI, density, the concentrations of ethylene, hydrogen and comonomer are used as controlled variables and flow rates of ethylene, hydrogen and comonomer are sued as manipulated variables in control implementation. Two-level hierarchical method is applied in dynamic optimization to reduce computation time. In the upper level formulation ...

  • In many practical engineering design problems, there are some design and manufacturing considerations that are difficult or infeasible to express in terms of an objective function or a constraint. In this situation, a set of optimal candidate designs having different topological complexities, not just a single optimal design, is preferred. To generate systematically such design candidates, we propose a hierarchical multiscale design resolution control scheme. In order to adjust its topological complexity by choosing a different starting resolution level in the hierarchical design space, we propose to employ a general M-band wavelet transform in transforming the original design space into the multiscale design space.

  • In this paper, we propose a fault diagnosis scheme tor induction motor by adopting a hierarchical classifier consisting of k-Nearest Neighbors(k-NN) and Support Vector Machine(SVM). First, some motor conditions are classified by a simple k-NN classifier in advance. And then, more complicated classes are distinguished by SVM. To obtain the normal and fault data, we established an experimental unit with induction motor system and data acquisition module. Feature extraction is performed by Principal Component Analysis(PCA). To show its effectiveness, the proposed fault diagnostic system has been intensively tested with various data acquired under the different electrical and mechanical faults with varying load.
