Intelligent Control: A Stochastic Optimization Based Adaptive Fuzzy Approach

Description

This book discusses systematic designs of stable adaptive fuzzy logic controllers employing hybridizations of Lyapunov strategy-based approaches/H∞ theory-based approaches and contemporary stochastic optimization techniques. The text demonstrates how candidate stochastic optimization techniques like Particle swarm optimization (PSO), harmony search (HS) algorithms, covariance matrix adaptation (CMA) etc. can be utilized in conjunction with the Lyapunov theory/H∞ theory to develop such hybrid control strategies. The goal of developing a series of such hybridization processes is to combine the strengths of both Lyapunov theory/H∞ theory-based local search methods and stochastic optimization-based global search methods, so as to attain superior control algorithms that can simultaneously achieve desired asymptotic performance and provide improved transient responses. The book also demonstrates how these intelligent adaptive control algorithms can be effectively utilized in real-life applications such as in temperature control for air heater systems with transportation delay, vision-based navigation of mobile robots, intelligent control of robot manipulators etc. Front Matter ....Pages i-xvi Front Matter ....Pages 1-1 Intelligent Adaptive Fuzzy Control (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 3-21 Some Contemporary Stochastic Optimization Algorithms: A Glimpse (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 23-36 Fuzzy Controller Design I: Stochastic Algorithm-Based Approach (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 37-75 Front Matter ....Pages 77-77 Fuzzy Controller Design II: Lyapunov Strategy-Based Adaptive Approach (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 79-100 Fuzzy Controller Design III: Hybrid Adaptive Approaches (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 101-156 Front Matter ....Pages 157-157 Fuzzy Controller Design IV: H∞ Strategy-Based Robust Approach (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 159-174 Fuzzy Controller Design V: Robust Hybrid Adaptive Approaches (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 175-206 Front Matter ....Pages 207-207 Experimental Study I: Temperature Control of an Air Heater System with Transportation Delay (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 209-242 Experimental Study II: Vision-Based Navigation of Mobile Robots (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 243-280 Experimental Study III: Control of Robot Manipulators (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 281-293 Front Matter ....Pages 295-295 Emerging Areas in Intelligent Fuzzy Control and Future Research Scopes (Kaushik Das Sharma, Amitava Chatterjee, Anjan Rakshit)....Pages 297-300 Back Matter ....Pages 301-302
