Application of PID Controller Based on BP Neural Network in Export Steam’s Temperature Control System

By combining the Back-Propagation （BP） neural network with conventional proportional Integral Derivative （PID） controller, a new temperature control strategy of the export steam in supercritical electric power plant is put forward. This scheme can effectively overcome the large time delay, inertia of the export steam and the influencee of object in varying operational parameters. Thus excellent control quality is obtaitud. The present paper describes the development and application of neural network based controller to control the temperature of the boiler＇s export steam. Through simulation in various situations, it validates that the control quality of this control system is apparently superior to the conventional PID control system.

The adaptive control using BP neural networks for a nonlinear servo-motor

The servo-motor possesses a strongly nonlinear property due to the effect of the stimulating input voltage, load-torque and environmental operating conditions. So it is rather difficult to derive a traditional mathematical model which is capable of expressing both its dynamics and steady-state characteristics. A neural network-based adaptive control strategy is proposed in this paper. In this method, two neural networks have been adopted for system identification （NNI） and control （NNC）, respectively. Then, the commonly-used specialized learning has been modified, by taking the NNI output as the approximation output of the servo-motor during the weights training to get sensitivity information. Moreover, the rule for choosing the learning rate is given on the basis of the analysis of Lyapunov stability. Finally, an example of applying the proposed control strategy on a servo-motor is presented to show its effectiveness.

Neural Network Based Adaptive Tracking of Nonlinear Multi-Agent System

In this paper,the problems of robust consensus tracking control for the second-order multi-agent system with uncertain model parameters and nonlinear disturbances are considered.An adaptive control strategy is proposed to smooth the agent’s trajectory,and the neural network is constructed to estimate the system’s unknown components.The consensus conditions are demonstrated for tracking a leader with nonlinear dynamics under an adaptive control algorithm in the absence of model uncertainties.Then,the results are extended to the system with unknown time-varying disturbances by applying the neural network estimation to compensating for the uncertain parts of the agents’models.Update laws are designed based on the Lyapunov function terms to ensure the effectiveness of robust control.Finally,the theoretical results are verified by numerical simulations,and a comparative experiment is conducted,showing that the trajectories generated by the proposed method exhibit less oscillation and converge faster.

Scene images and text information‐based object location of robot grasping

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence(AI),the application of this technology in the medical field is becoming increasingly extensive,along with a gradual increase in the amount of intelligent equipment in hospitals.Service robots can save human resources and replace nursing staff to achieve some work.In view of the phenomenon of mobile service robots'grabbing and distribution of patients'drugs in hospitals,a real‐time object detection and positioning system based on image and text information is proposed,which realizes the precise positioning and tracking of the grabbing objects and completes the grasping of a specific object(medicine bottle).The lightweight object detection model NanoDet is used to learn the features of the grasping objects and the object category,and bounding boxes are regressed.Then,the images in the bounding boxes are enhanced to overcome unfavourable factors,such as a small object region.The text detection and recognition model PP‐OCR is used to detect and recognise the enhanced images and extract the text information.The object information provided by the two models is fused,and the text recognition result is matched with the object detection box to achieve the precise posi-tioning of the grasping object.The kernel correlation filter(KCF)tracking algorithm is introduced to achieve real‐time tracking of specific objects to precisely control the robot's grasping.Both deep learning models adopt lightweight networks to facilitate direct deployment.The experiments show that the proposed robot grasping detection system has high reliability,accuracy and real‐time performance.
