This paper presents a design method of the wavelet neural network(WNN) controller based on a direct adaptive control scheme for the intelligent control of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle(AUV) steering systems. The neural network is constructed by the wavelet orthogonal decomposition to form a wavelet neural network that can overcome nonlinearities and uncertainty. In our control method, the control signals are directly obtained by minimizing the difference between the reference track and original signal of AUV model that is controlled through a wavelet neural network. The control process is a dynamic on-line process that uses the wavelet neural network trained by gradient-descent method. Through computer simulations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

This paper presents a neural network controller for a rigid-link electrically-driven robot. The proposed controller is designed in conjunction with three neural networks approximating for complicated nonlinear functions. Particularly, the fact, different from conventional schemes, is that the neural network based current observer is used. Therefore, no accurate measurement of the actuator driving current is required. In the proposed controller-observer scheme, the derived weight update rule guarantees the stability of closed-loop system in the sense of Lyapunov. The effectiveness and performance of the proposed method are demonstrated through computer simulation.

Sinusoidal current tracking inverters have substantial advantages in high performance acdrive systems and various control strategies for the inverter have been proposed by several researchers. This paper develops a sinusoidal current tracking inverter with neural networks. The neural network are trained to follow a set of reference current waveforms by erro back propagation algorithm and the trained neural networks are applied to the current control. We compare neural networks method with conventional current control methods (fixed band and sinusiidal band hystersis methods) and simulation results are presented.

As an approach to develope the intelligent control scheme, this paper will propose an adaptive neural-fuzzy control scheme. The proposed neural-fuzzy control system, which consists of the Fuzzy-Neural Controller(FNC) and Model Neural Network(MNN), has two important characteristics of adaptation and learning. The error back propagation algorithm has been adopted as a learning technique.

A neural model predictive control strategy combining a neural network for plant identification and a nonlinear programming algorithm for solving nonlinear control problems is proposed. A constrained nonlinear optimization approach using successive quadratic programming combined with neural identification network is used to generate the optimum control law for complex continuous chemical reactor systems that have inherent nonlinear dynamics. The neural model predictive controller (MNPC) shows good performances and robustness. To whom all correspondence should be addressed.

In this paper, experimental studies of a neural network (NN) control technique for non-model based position control of the x-y table robot are presented. Decentralized neural networks are used to control each axis of the x-y table robot separately. For an each neural network compensator, an inverse control technique is used. The neural network control technique called the reference compensation technique (RCT) is conceptually different from the existing neural controllers in that the NN controller compensates for uncertainties in the dynamical system by modifying desired trajectories. The back-propagation learning algorithm is developed in a real time DSP board for on-line learning. Practical real time position control experiments are conducted on the x-y table robot. Experimental results of using neural networks show more excellent position tracking than that of when PD controllers are used only.

In this paper, we present a new control methodology for perturbed crane systems. Nonlinear crane systems are transformed to linear models by feedback linearization. An inverse dynamic equation is applied to compute the system PD control force. The PD control parameters are selected based on a nominal model and are therefore suboptimal for a perturbed system. To achieve the desired performance despite model perturbations, we construct a neural network auxiliary controller to compensate for modeling errors and disturbances. The overall control input is the sum of the nominal PD control and the neural auxiliary control. The neural network is iteratively trained with a perturbed system until acceptable performance is attained. We apply the proposed control scheme to 2- and 3-degree-of-freedom (D.O.F.) crane systems, with known bounds on the payload mass. The effectiveness of the control approach is numerically demonstrated through computer simulation experiments.

Generally PI controller is used to control the speed of an induction motor. It has the good performance of speed control in case of adjusting the control parameters. But it occurred the problem to change the control parameters in the change of operation condition. In order to solve this problem, Fuzzy control or Artificial neural network is introduced in the speed control of an induction motor. However, Fuzzy control have the problems as the difficulties to change the membership function and fuzzy rule and the remaining error Also Neural network has the problem as the difficulties to analyze the behavior of inner part. Therefore, the study on the combination of two controller is proceeded. In this paper, Fuzzy-neural controller to make up these controllers in parallel is proposed and the speed control of an induction motor is performed using the proposed controller Through the experiment, the fast response and good stability of the proposed speed controller is proved.

This paper presents a new neural network control for nonlinear bridge systems with earthquake excitation. We design multi-layer neural network controllers with a single hidden layer. The selection of an optimal number of neurons in the hidden layer is an important design step for control performance. To select an optimal number of hidden neurons, we progressively add one hidden neuron and observe the change in a performance measure given by the weighted sum of the system error and the control force. The number of hidden neurons which minimizes the performance measure is selected for implementation. A neural network was trained for mitigating vibrations of bridge systems caused by El Centro earthquake. We applied the proposed control approach to a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) and a two-degree-of-freedom (TDOF) bridge system. We assessed the robustness of the control system using randomly generated earthquake excitations which were not used in training the neural network. Our results show that the neural network controller drastically mitigates the effect of the disturbance.

In this paper, we propose a wavelet based fuzzy neural network (WFNN) based direct adaptive control scheme for the solution of the tracking problem of mobile robots. To design a controller, we present a WFNN structure that merges the advantages of the neural network, fuzzy model and wavelet transform. The basic idea of our WFNN structure is to realize the process of fuzzy reasoning of the wavelet fuzzy system by the structure of a neural network and to make the parameters of fuzzy reasoning be expressed by the connection weights of a neural network. In our control system, the control signals are directly obtained to minimize the difference between the reference track and the pose of a mobile robot via the gradient descent (GD) method. In addition, an approach that uses adaptive learning rates for training of the WFNN controller is driven via a Lyapunov stability analysis to guarantee fast convergence, that is, learning rates are adaptively determined to rapidly minimize the state errors of a mobile robot. Finally, to evaluate the performance of the proposed direct adaptive control system using the WFNN controller, we compare the control results of the WFNN controller with those of the FNN, the WNN and the WFM controllers.
