In this paper, we presented a self-tuning control algorithm based on a three layers perceptron type neural network. The proposed algorithm is advantageous in the sense that practically a previous training of the net is not required and some changes in the set-point are generally enough to adjust the learning coefficient. Optionally, it is possible to introduce a self-tuning mechanism of the learning coefficient although by the moment it is not possible to give final conclusions about this possibility. The proposed algorithm has the special feature that the regulation error instead of the net output error is retropropagated for the weighting coefficients modifications.

Синтез регуляторов для многоканальных систем - актуальная и сложная задача. Одним из возможных способов синтеза является применение нейронных сетей. Нейронный регулятор либо обучают на предварительно рассчитанных данных, либо используют для настройки параметров ПИД-регулятора из начального устойчивого положения замкнутой системы. Предложено использовать нейронные сети для регулирования двухканального объекта, при этом обучение будет выполняться из неустойчивого (произвольного) начального положения с применением методов обучения нейронных сетей с подкреплением. Предложена структура нейронной сети и замкнутой системы, в которой уставка задается при помощи входного параметра нейронной сети регулятора The problem for synthesis of automatic control systems is hard, especially for multichannel objects. One of the approaches is the use of neural networks. For the approaches that are based on the use of reinforcement learning, there is an additional issue - supporting of range of values for the set points. The method of synthesis of automatic control systems using neural networks and the process of its learning with reinforcement learning that allows neural networks learning for supporting regulation is proposed in the predefined range of set points. The main steps of the method are 1) to form a neural net input as a state of the object and system set point; 2) to perform modelling of the system with a set of randomly generated set points from the desired range; 3) to perform a one-step of the learning using the Deterministic Policy Gradient method. The originality of the proposed method is that, in contrast to existing methods of using a neural network to synthesize a controller, the proposed method allows training a controller from an unstable initial state in a closed system and set of a range of set points. The method was applied to the problem of stabilizing the outputs of a two-channel object, for which stabilization both outputs and the first near the input set point is required

While many vehicle control systems focus on vehicle safety and vehicle performance at high speeds, most driving conditions are very low risk situations. In such a driving situation, the ride comfort of the vehicle is the most important performance index of the vehicle. Electro mechanical brake (EMB) and other brake-by-wire (BBW) systems have been actively researched. As a result, braking actuators in vehicles are more freely controllable, and research on improving ride comfort is also possible. In this study, we develop a control algorithm that dramatically improves ride comfort in low risk braking situations. A method for minimizing the inconvenience of a passenger due to a suddenly changing acceleration at the moment when the vehicle is stopped is presented. For this purpose, an acceleration trajectory is generated that minimizes the discomfort index defined by the change in acceleration, jerk. A controller is also designed to track this trajectory. The algorithm that updates the trajectory is designed considering the error due to the phase lag occurring in the controller and the plant. In order to verify the performance of this controller, simulation verification is completed using a car simulator, Carsim. As a result, it is confirmed that the ride comfort is dramatically improved.

This benchmark suite presents a detailed description of a series of closed-loop control systems with artificial neural network controllers. In many applications, feed-forward neural networks are heavily involved in the implementation of controllers by learning and representing control laws through several methods such as model predictive control (MPC) and reinforcement learning (RL). The type of networks that we consider in this manuscript are feed-forward neural networks consisting of multiple hidden layers with ReLU activation functions and a linear activation function in the output layer. While neural network con- trollers have been able to achieve desirable performance in many contexts, they also present a unique challenge in that it is difficult to provide any guarantees about the correctness of their behavior or reason about the stability a system that employs their use. Thus, from a controls perspective, it is necessary to verify them in conjunction with their corresponding plants in closed-loop. While there have been a handful of works proposed towards the verification of closed-loop systems with feed-forward neural network controllers, this area still lacks attention and a unified set of benchmark examples on which verification techniques can be evaluated and compared. Thus, to this end, we present a range of closed-loop control systems ranging from two to six state variables, and a range of controllers with sizes in the range of eleven neurons to a few hundred neurons in more complex systems.

Controlling complex systems by traditional control systems can sometimes lead to sub-optimal results since mathematical models do often not completely describe physical processes. An alternative approach is the use of a neural network based control algorithm. Neural Networks can approximate any function and as such are able to control even the most complex system. One challenge of this approach is the necessity of a high speed training loop to facilitate enough training rounds in a reasonable time frame to generate a viable control network. This paper overcomes this problem by employing a second neural network to approximate the output of a relatively slow 3D-FE-Pultrusion-Model. This approximation is by orders of magnitude faster than the original model with only minor deviations from the original models behaviour. This new model is then employed in a training loop to successfully train a NEAT based genetic control algorithm.

Abstract This work is devoted to a theoretical study of the investigation of incidents from the operation of access control systems using neural networks in our time. The work describes the processes of operation of control and access control systems, in which neural network technologies are most actively introduced among the components of access control and management systems, and which, from the introduction of neural networks into them, can show new vulnerabilities in the operation of the access control and management system as a whole.

Consider a nonlinear control system, whose structure is not known (apart from the order of the system) and whose states are not observed. We observe the output of the system for a period of time using persistently exciting input, and use the observation to train a neural network emulator whose output approximates that of the original system. We point out that such an explicit dynamical relationship between the input and the output is useful for the purpose of construction of output feedback controller for nonlinear control systems. Specialization of the method to linear systems allows swift convergence and parameter identification in some cases.

This paper investigates the performance of adaptive neural networks through simulations for satellite systems involving three-axis attitude control algorithms. PID tuning is the method employed traditionally. An optimally tuned, to minimizes the deviation from set point. It also responds quickly to the disturbances with some minimal overshoot. However, the disadvantage of poor performance has been observed in these controllers when manual tuning is used which in itself a monotonous process is. The PID controller using Ziegler-Nichols has more transient responses of satellite such as Overshoot, Settling time, and Steady state errors. For overcome this technique, the proposed analysis implemented an Adaptive Neural Network with PID tuning. The paper aims to combine two feedback methods by using neural networks. These methods are feed- forward and error feedback adaptive control. The research work is expected to reveal the inside working of these neural network controllers for state and error feedback input states. An error driven adaptive control systems is produced, when the neural networks acquire the knowledge of slopes and gains regarding the error feedback, while, with state feedback the system will keep trying to approximate a stable approach in order to stabilize the attitude of the satellite.
