In this paper, a neural-network-based variable structure control scheme is presented for a class of nonlinear systems with a general low triangular structure. The proposed variable structure controller is proved to be Cl, thus can be applied for backstepping design, which has extended the scope of previous nonlinear systems in the form of strict-feedback and pure-feedback. With the help of neural network approximator, H-∞ performance analysis of stability is given. The effectiveness of proposed control law is verified via simulation.
The collective behavior of certain animals and insects has the characteristic of self-organization. The simple interactions among individuals can produce complex adaptive patterns at the level of the group. Recently,new scientific investigation pointed out that desert locusts show extreme phenotypic plasticity in transforming between the lonely phase and the swarming gregarious phase depending on the population density,which is controlled by a serotonin called 5-hydroxytryptamine( 5HT). In this paper,based on the mechanism of the locusts' collective behavior,a new particle swarm optimization technique called LBPSO is studied. The number of swarms is selfadaptively adjusted by the acquired outstanding particles coming from behind the previous global best solution. The swarm sizes are related to the corresponding serotonin 5HT,which is determined by the optimization parameters such as global best and iteration number. And each swarm adopts one of three rules below according to its density, generalized social evolution strategy, generalized cognition evolution strategy and the independent moving strategy. A comparative study of LBPSO,social particle swarm optimization( SPSO), improved SPSO and the standard particle swarm optimization( StdPSO) on their abilities of tracking optima is carried out. And the results under four static benchmark functions and a dynamic function generator moving peaks benchmark( MPB)show that LBPSO outperforms the other three functions in both static and dynamic landscapes due to the introduced locusts' collective behavior.
Near-infrared( NIR) spectroscopy has been widely employed as a process analytical tool( PAT) in various fields; the most important reason for the use of this method is its ability to record spectra in real time to capture process properties. In quantitative online applications,the robustness of the established NIR model is often deteriorated by process condition variations,nonlinear of the properties or the high-dimensional of the NIR data set. To cope with such situation,a novel method based on principal component analysis( PCA) and artificial neural network( ANN) is proposed and a new sample-selection method is mentioned. The advantage of the presented approach is that it can select proper calibration samples and establish robust model effectively. The performance of the method was tested on a spectroscopic data set from a refinery process. Compared with traditional partial leastsquares( PLS),principal component regression( PCR) and several other modeling methods, the proposed approach was found to achieve good accuracy in the prediction of gasoline properties. An application of the proposed method is also reported.
For mobile anchor node static path planning cannot accord the actual distribution of node for dynamic adjustment. We take advantage of the high localization accuracy and low computational complexity of ad-hoc localization system( AHLos)algorithm. This article introduces mobile anchor nodes instead of the traditional fixed anchor nodes to improve the algorithm. The result shows that, through introduce the mobile anchor node, the information of initial anchor nodes can be configured more flexible.Meanwhile,with the use of the approximate location and the transition path,the distance and energy consumption of the mobile anchor node is greatly reduced.
