Hybrid Dynamic Variables-Dependent Event-Triggered Fuzzy Model Predictive Control

This article focuses on dynamic event-triggered mechanism(DETM)-based model predictive control(MPC) for T-S fuzzy systems.A hybrid dynamic variables-dependent DETM is carefully devised,which includes a multiplicative dynamic variable and an additive dynamic variable.The addressed DETM-based fuzzy MPC issue is described as a “min-max” optimization problem(OP).To facilitate the co-design of the MPC controller and the weighting matrix of the DETM,an auxiliary OP is proposed based on a new Lyapunov function and a new robust positive invariant(RPI) set that contain the membership functions and the hybrid dynamic variables.A dynamic event-triggered fuzzy MPC algorithm is developed accordingly,whose recursive feasibility is analysed by employing the RPI set.With the designed controller,the involved fuzzy system is ensured to be asymptotically stable.Two examples show that the new DETM and DETM-based MPC algorithm have the advantages of reducing resource consumption while yielding the anticipated performance.

This work aimed to construct an epidemic model with fuzzy parameters.Since the classical epidemic model doesnot elaborate on the successful interaction of susceptible and infective people,the constructed fuzzy epidemicmodel discusses the more detailed versions of the interactions between infective and susceptible people.Thenext-generation matrix approach is employed to find the reproduction number of a deterministic model.Thesensitivity analysis and local stability analysis of the systemare also provided.For solving the fuzzy epidemic model,a numerical scheme is constructed which consists of three time levels.The numerical scheme has an advantage overthe existing forward Euler scheme for determining the conditions of getting the positive solution.The establishedscheme also has an advantage over existing non-standard finite difference methods in terms of order of accuracy.The stability of the scheme for the considered fuzzy model is also provided.From the plotted results,it can beobserved that susceptible people decay by rising interaction parameters.

T-S-fuzzy-model-based quantized control for nonlinear networked control systems

In order to overcome data-quantization, networked-induced delay, network packet dropouts and wrong sequences in the nonlinear networked control system, a novel nonlinear networked control system model is built by the T-S fuzzy method. Two time-varying quantizers are added in the model. The key analysis steps in the method are to construct an improved interval-delay-dependent Lyapunov functional and to introduce the free-weighting matrix. By making use of the parallel distributed compensation technology and the convexity of the matrix function, the improved criteria of the stabilization and stability are obtained. Simulation experiments show that the parameters of the controllers and quantizers satisfying a certain performance can be obtained by solving a set of LMIs. The application of the nonlinear mass-spring system is provided to show that the proposed method is effective.

基于概率信息与协作学习的鲁棒T-S模糊建模方法

T-S模糊建模方法在非线性系统建模中取得了大量的应用.然而,T-S模型在参数辨识过程中忽略了结构风险项,同时没有考虑各个规则之间的联系,因此在数据受到非高斯噪声和异常点的影响时,模型容易失效.针对以上不足,提出了基于概率信息与协作学习的模糊建模方法.该方法建立了规则之间协作学习机制以保证模型的连续性、平滑性与鲁棒性,并进一步构建了包含正则化项、误差项、规则概率信息及规则之间协作关系项的目标函数,用于提高模型的泛化能力和建模性能.除此之外,建立了空间投影机制,将数据低维特征空间的非线性关系转换为高维投影空间的线性关系,以增强规则之间的协作性.针对该模型,建立了基于最小二乘的求解方法,获得了可靠的模型参数.数学算例仿真和实际锻压实验表明:所提出的方法在面对噪声以及强非线性影响时,依然能在规则数较低的情况下保持优秀的建模性能.对比其他优秀的模糊建模方法,该模型有着更强的抗干扰能力,且建模均方根误差(RMSE)远低于其他建模方法.综上所述,所提出的方法对传统方法和建模理论进行了改进,即使面对强非线性系统拥有较强的泛化能力、鲁棒性以及优秀的建模能力,并且能够以较少的模糊规则对工程当中非线性、不确定性系统建模.

Computation Tree Logic Model Checking of Multi-Agent Systems Based on Fuzzy Epistemic Interpreted Systems

Model checking is an automated formal verification method to verify whether epistemic multi-agent systems adhere to property specifications.Although there is an extensive literature on qualitative properties such as safety and liveness,there is still a lack of quantitative and uncertain property verifications for these systems.In uncertain environments,agents must make judicious decisions based on subjective epistemic.To verify epistemic and measurable properties in multi-agent systems,this paper extends fuzzy computation tree logic by introducing epistemic modalities and proposing a new Fuzzy Computation Tree Logic of Knowledge(FCTLK).We represent fuzzy multi-agent systems as distributed knowledge bases with fuzzy epistemic interpreted systems.In addition,we provide a transformation algorithm from fuzzy epistemic interpreted systems to fuzzy Kripke structures,as well as transformation rules from FCTLK formulas to Fuzzy Computation Tree Logic(FCTL)formulas.Accordingly,we transform the FCTLK model checking problem into the FCTL model checking.This enables the verification of FCTLK formulas by using the fuzzy model checking algorithm of FCTL without additional computational overheads.Finally,we present correctness proofs and complexity analyses of the proposed algorithms.Additionally,we further illustrate the practical application of our approach through an example of a train control system.

Recognition and Anticipation of Diabetic Foot Ulcer in Type Ⅱ Diabetic Patients using Multi-layered Fuzzy Model

Diabetes mellitus is associated with foot ulcers,which frequently pave the way to lower-extremity amputation.Neuropathy,trauma,deformity,high plantar pressures,and peripheral vascular disease are the most common underlying causes.Around 15%of diabetic patients are affected by diabetic foot ulcer in their lifetime.64 million people are affected by diabetics in India and 40000 amputations are done every year.Foot ulcers are evaluated and classified in a systematic and thorough manner to assist in determining the best course of therapy.This paper proposes a novel model which predicts the threat of diabetic foot ulcer using independent agents for various input values and a combination of fuzzy expert systems.The proposed model uses a classification system to distinguish between each fuzzy framework and its parameters.Based on the severity levels necessary prevention,treatment,and medication are recommended.Combining the results of all the fuzzy frameworks derived from its constituent parameters,a risk-specific medication is recommended.The work also has higher accuracy when compared to other related models.

In many problems,to analyze the process/metabolism behavior,a mod-el of the system is identified.The main gap is the weakness of current methods vs.noisy environments.The primary objective of this study is to present a more robust method against uncertainties.This paper proposes a new deep learning scheme for modeling and identification applications.The suggested approach is based on non-singleton type-3 fuzzy logic systems(NT3-FLSs)that can support measurement errors and high-level uncertainties.Besides the rule optimization,the antecedent parameters and the level of secondary memberships are also adjusted by the suggested square root cubature Kalmanfilter(SCKF).In the learn-ing algorithm,the presented NT3-FLSs are deeply learned,and their nonlinear structure is preserved.The designed scheme is applied for modeling carbon cap-ture and sequestration problem using real-world data sets.Through various ana-lyses and comparisons,the better efficiency of the proposed fuzzy modeling scheme is verified.The main advantages of the suggested approach include better resistance against uncertainties,deep learning,and good convergence.

New Trends in Fuzzy Modeling Through Numerical Techniques

Amoebiasis is a parasitic intestinal infection caused by the highly pathogenic amoeba Entamoeba histolytica.It is spread through person-toperson contact or by eating or drinking food or water contaminated with feces.Its transmission rate depends on the number of cysts present in the environment.The traditional models assumed a homogeneous and contradictory transmission with reality.The heterogeneity of its transmission rate is a significant factor when modeling disease dynamics.The heterogeneity of disease transmission can be described mathematically by introducing fuzzy theory.In this context,a fuzzy SEIR Amoebiasis disease model is considered in this study.The equilibrium analysis and reproductive number are studied with fuzziness.Two numerical schemes forward Euler method and a nonstandard finite difference(NSFD)approach,are developed for the learned model,and the results of numerical simulations are presented.The numerical and simulation results reveal that the proposed NSFD method provides an adequate representation of the dynamics of the disease despite the uncertainty and heterogeneity.Moreover,the obtained method generates plausible predictions that regulators can use to support decision-making to design and develop control strategies.

A Double-Interactively Recurrent Fuzzy Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller Model Combined with an Improved Particle Swarm Optimization Method for Fall Detection

In many Eastern and Western countries,falling birth rates have led to the gradual aging of society.Older adults are often left alone at home or live in a long-term care center,which results in them being susceptible to unsafe events(such as falls)that can have disastrous consequences.However,automatically detecting falls fromvideo data is challenging,and automatic fall detection methods usually require large volumes of training data,which can be difficult to acquire.To address this problem,video kinematic data can be used as training data,thereby avoiding the requirement of creating a large fall data set.This study integrated an improved particle swarm optimization method into a double interactively recurrent fuzzy cerebellar model articulation controller model to develop a costeffective and accurate fall detection system.First,it obtained an optical flow(OF)trajectory diagram from image sequences by using the OF method,and it solved problems related to focal length and object offset by employing the discrete Fourier transform(DFT)algorithm.Second,this study developed the D-IRFCMAC model,which combines spatial and temporal(recurrent)information.Third,it designed an IPSO(Improved Particle Swarm Optimization)algorithm that effectively strengthens the exploratory capabilities of the proposed D-IRFCMAC(Double-Interactively Recurrent Fuzzy Cerebellar Model Articulation Controller)model in the global search space.The proposed approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of action recognition accuracy on the UR-Fall,UP-Fall,and PRECIS HAR data sets.The UCF11 dataset had an average accuracy of 93.13%,whereas the UCF101 dataset had an average accuracy of 92.19%.The UR-Fall dataset had an accuracy of 100%,the UP-Fall dataset had an accuracy of 99.25%,and the PRECIS HAR dataset had an accuracy of 99.07%.

Modeling of Computer Virus Propagation with Fuzzy Parameters

Typically,a computer has infectivity as soon as it is infected.It is a reality that no antivirus programming can identify and eliminate all kinds of viruses,suggesting that infections would persevere on the Internet.To understand the dynamics of the virus propagation in a better way,a computer virus spread model with fuzzy parameters is presented in this work.It is assumed that all infected computers do not have the same contribution to the virus transmission process and each computer has a different degree of infectivity,which depends on the quantity of virus.Considering this,the parametersβandγbeing functions of the computer virus load,are considered fuzzy numbers.Using fuzzy theory helps us understand the spread of computer viruses more realistically as these parameters have fixed values in classical models.The essential features of the model,like reproduction number and equilibrium analysis,are discussed in fuzzy senses.Moreover,with fuzziness,two numerical methods,the forward Euler technique,and a nonstandard finite difference(NSFD)scheme,respectively,are developed and analyzed.In the evidence of the numerical simulations,the proposed NSFD method preserves the main features of the dynamic system.It can be considered a reliable tool to predict such types of solutions.

Constrained predictive control based on T-S fuzzy model for nonlinear systems

A constrained generalized predictive control （GPC） algorithm based on the T-S fuzzy model is presented for the nonlinear system. First, a Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model based on the fuzzy cluster algorithm and the orthogonalleast square method is constructed to approach the nonlinear system. Since its consequence is linear, it can divide the nonlinear system into a number of linear or nearly linear subsystems. For this T-S fuzzy model, a GPC algorithm with input constraints is presented. This strategy takes into account all the constraints of the control signal and its increment, and does not require the calculation of the Diophantine equations. So it needs only a small computer memory and the computational speed is high. The simulation results show a good performance for the nonlinear systems.

Pendulation reduction on ship-mounted container crane via T-S fuzzy model

Ship-mounted container cranes are challenging industrial applications of nonlinear pendulum-like systems with oscillating disturbance which can cause them unstable.Since wave-induced ship motion causes the hoisted container to swing during the transfer operation,the swing motion may be dangerously large and the operation must be stopped.In order to reduce payload pendulation of ship-mounted crane,nonlinear dynamics of ship-mounted crane is derived and a control method using T-S fuzzy model is proposed.Simulation results are given to illustrate the validity of the proposed design method and pendulation of ship-mounted crane is reduced significantly.

Predictive functional control based on fuzzy T-S model for HVAC systems temperature control

In heating, ventilating and air-conditioning （HVAC） systems, there exist severe nonlinearity, time-varying nature, disturbances and uncertainties. A new predictive functional control based on Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model was proposed to control HVAC systems. The T-S fuzzy model of stabilized controlled process was obtained using the least squares method, then on the basis of global linear predictive model from T-S fuzzy model, the process was controlled by the predictive functional controller. Especially the feedback regulation part was developed to compensate uncertainties of fuzzy predictive model. Finally simulation test results in HVAC systems control applications showed that the proposed fuzzy model predictive functional control improves tracking effect and robustness. Compared with the conventional PID controller, this control strategy has the advantages of less overshoot and shorter setting time, etc.

Controller Design for Electric Power Steering System Using T-S Fuzzy Model Approach

Pressure ripples in electric power steering （EPS） systems can be caused by the phase lag between the driver s steering torque and steer angle, the nonlinear frictions, and the disturbances from road and sensor noise especially during high-frequency maneuvers. This paper investigates the use of the robust fuzzy control method for actively reducing pressure ripples for EPS systems. Remarkable progress on steering maneuverability is achieved. The EPS dynamics is described with an eight-order nonlinear state-space model and approximated by a Takagi-Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model with time-varying delays and external disturbances. A stabilization approach is then presented for nonlinear time-delay systems through fuzzy state feedback controller in parallel distributed compensation （PDC） structure. The closed-loop stability conditions of EPS system with the fuzzy controller are parameterized in terms of the linear matrix inequality （LMI） problem. Simulations and experiments using the proposed robust fuzzy controller and traditional PID controller have been carried out for EPS systems. Both the simulation and experiment results show that the proposed fuzzy controller can reduce the torque ripples and allow us to have a good steering feeling and stable driving.

Statistic PID Tracking Control for Non-Gaussian Stochastic Systems Based on T-S Fuzzy Model

A new robust proportional-integral-derivative （PID） tracking control framework is considered for stochastic systems with non-Gaussian variable based on B-spline neural network approximation and T-S fuzzy model identification. The tracked object is the statistical information of a given target probability density function （PDF）, rather than a deterministic signal. Following B-spline approximation to the integrated performance function, the concerned problem is transferred into the tracking of given weights. Different from the previous related works, the time delay T-S fuzzy models with the exogenous disturbances are applied to identify the nonlinear weighting dynamics. Meanwhile, the generalized PID controller structure and the improved convex linear matrix inequalities （LMI） algorithms are proposed to fulfil the tracking problem. Furthermore, in order to enhance the robust performance, the peak-to-peak measure index is applied to optimize the tracking performance. Simulations are given to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.

Fault tolerant synchronization of chaotic systems based on T-S fuzzy model with fuzzy sampled-data controller

In this paper the fault tolerant synchronization of two chaotic systems based on fuzzy model and sample data is investigated. The problem of fault tolerant synchronization is formulated to study the global asymptotical stability of the error system with the fuzzy sampled-data controller which contains a state feedback controller and a fault compensator. The synchronization can be achieved no matter whether the fault occurs or not. To investigate the stability of the error system and facilitate the design of the fuzzy sampled-data controller, a Takagi Sugeno （T-S） fuzzy model is employed to represent the chaotic system dynamics. To acquire good performance and produce a less conservative analysis result, a new parameter-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovksii functional and a relaxed stabilization technique are considered. The stability conditions based on linear matrix inequality are obtained to achieve the fault tolerant synchronization of the chaotic systems. Finally, a numerical simulation is shown to verify the results.
