Motor control neural models and systems theory

Kenji Doya, Hidenori Kimura, Aiko Miyamura (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

In this paper, we introduce several system theoretic problems brought forward by recent studies on neural models of motor control. We focus our attention on three topics: (i) the cerebellum and adaptive control, (ii) reinforcement learning and the basal ganglia, and (iii) modular control with multiple models. We discuss these subjects from both neuroscience and systems theory viewpoints with the aim of promoting interplay between the two research communities.

Fixed-time tracking control for nonholonomic mobile robot

Ou Meiying, Sun Haibin, Zhang Zhenxing, Li Lingchun, Wang Xiang-ao (2021)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This paper investigates the fixed-time trajectory tracking control problem for a nonholonomic mobile robot. Firstly, the tracking error system is derived for the mobile robot by the aid of a global invertible transformation. Then, based on the unified error dynamics and by using the fixed-time control method, continuous fixed-time tracking controllers are developed for the mobile robot such that the robot can track the desired trajectory in a fixed time. Moreover, the settling time is...

Iterative Learning Control - monotonicity and optimization

David H. Owens, Steve Daley (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

The area if Iterative Learning Control (ILC) has great potential for applications to systems with a naturally repetitive action where the transfer of data from repetition (trial or iteration) can lead to substantial improvements in tracking performance. There are several serious issues arising from the "2D" structure of ILC and a number of new problems requiring new ways of thinking and design. This paper introduces some of these issues from the point of view of the research group at...

An example of the knowledge based controller-design and evaluation.

Oto Tezak (1999)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Similarity:

Knowledge based controller for a balance control model is presented in this paper. The design of the controller was based on the human control of the same process. Developed controller is tested by means of simulation and operation on the laboratory balance control model. The simulation results of the controller as well as a statistical description of the experiments with developed controller and human control is presented in the paper. Verification is based on experiments with an intelligent...

A comparison of two FEM-based methods for the solution of the nonlinear output regulation problem

Branislav Rehák, Sergej Čelikovský, Javier Ruiz, Jorge Orozco-Mora (2009)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The regulator equation is the fundamental equation whose solution must be found in order to solve the output regulation problem. It is a system of first-order partial differential equations (PDE) combined with an algebraic equation. The classical approach to its solution is to use the Taylor series with undetermined coefficients. In this contribution, another path is followed: the equation is solved using the finite-element method which is, nevertheless, suitable to solve PDE part only....

A variable structure observer for the control of robot manipulators

Abdelkader Abdessameud, Mohamed Khelfi (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper deals with the application of a variable structure observer developed for a class of nonlinear systems to solve the trajectory tracking problem for rigid robot manipulators. The analyzed approach to observer design proposes a simple design methodology for systems having completely observable linear parts and bounded nonlinearities andor uncertainties. This observer is basically the conventional Luenberger observer with an additional switching term that is used to guarantee...
