Electro-Hydraulic Servo System Identification of Continuous Rotary Motor Based on the Integration Algorithm of Genetic Algorithm and Ant Colony Optimization

In order to increase the robust performance of electro-hydraulic servo system, the system transfer function was identified by the intergration algorithm of genetic algorithm and ant colony optimization(GA-ACO), which was based on standard genetic algorithm and combined with positive feedback mechanism of ant colony algorithm. This method can obtain the precise mathematic model of continuous rotary motor which determines the order of servo system. Firstly, by constructing an appropriate fitness function, the problem of system parameters identification is converted into the problem of system parameter optimization. Secondly, in the given upper and lower bounds a set of optimal parameters are selected to meet the best approximation of the actual system. And the result shows that the identification output can trace the sampling output of actual system, and the error is very small. In addition, another set of experimental data are used to test the identification result. The result shows that the identification parameters can approach the actual system. The experimental results verify the feasibility of this method. And it is fit for the parameter identification of general complex system using the integration algorithm of GA-ACO.

System identification based on NARMAX model using Hopfield networks

An approach is proposed to avoid model structure determination in system identification using NARMAX （nonlinear autoregressive moving average with exogenous inputs） model. Identification procedure is formulated as an optimization procedure of a apecial class of Hopfield network in the proposed approach. The particular structure of these Hopfield networks can avoid the local optimum problem. Training of these Hopfield network achieves model structure determination and parameter estimation. Convergence of Hopfield networks guarantees that a NARMAX model of random initial state will approach a valid identification model with accurate state parameters. Results of two simulation examples illustrate that this approach is efficient and simple.

Identification of nonlinear systems with unknown piecewise time-varying delay is concerned in this paper.Multiple auto regressive exogenous(ARX) models are identified at different process operating points,and the complete dynamics of the nonlinear system is represented by using a combination of a normalized exponential function as the probability density function with each of the local models.The parameters of the local ARX models and the exponential functions as well as the unknown piecewise time-varying delays are estimated simultaneously under the framework of the expectation maximization(EM) algorithm.A simulation example is applied to demonstrating the proposed identification method.

Heuristic Order Reduction of NARX-OBF models Applied to Nonlinear System Identification

Nonlinear system identification concerns the determination of the model structure and its parameters.Although the designers often seek the best model for each system,it can be tricky to determine,at the same time,the best structure and the parameters which optimize the model performance.This paper proposes the use of a Genetic Algorithm,GA,and the Levenberg-Marquardt,LM,method to obtain the model parameters,as well as perform the order reduction of the model.In order to validate the proposed methodology,the identification of a magnetic levitator,operating in closed loop,was performed.The class NARX-OBF,Nonlinear Auto Regressive with eXogenous input-Orthonormal Basis Function,was used.The use of OBF functions aims to reduce the number of terms in NARX models.Once the model is found,the order reduction is performed using GA and LM,in a hybrid application,capable of determining the model parameters and reducing the original model order,simultaneously.The results show,considering the inherent trade-of between accuracy and computational effort,the proposed methodology provided an implementation with good mean square error,when compared with the full NARX-OBF model.

Identification of time-varying system and energy-based optimization of adaptive control in seismically excited structure

The combination of structural health monitoring and vibration control is of great importance to provide components of smart structures.While synthetic algorithms have been proposed,adaptive control that is compatible with changing conditions still needs to be used,and time-varying systems are required to be simultaneously estimated with the application of adaptive control.In this research,the identification of structural time-varying dynamic characteristics and optimized simple adaptive control are integrated.First,reduced variations of physical parameters are estimated online using the multiple forgetting factor recursive least squares(MFRLS)method.Then,the energy from the structural vibration is simultaneously specified to optimize the control force with the identified parameters to be operational.Optimization is also performed based on the probability density function of the energy under the seismic excitation at any time.Finally,the optimal control force is obtained by the simple adaptive control(SAC)algorithm and energy coefficient.A numerical example and benchmark structure are employed to investigate the efficiency of the proposed approach.The simulation results revealed the effectiveness of the integrated online identification and optimal adaptive control in systems.

Model Parameters Identification and Backstepping Control of Lower Limb Exoskeleton Based on Enhanced Whale Algorithm

Exoskeletons generally require accurate dynamic models to design the model-based controller conveniently under the human-robot interaction condition.However,due to unknown model parameters such as the mass,moment of inertia and mechanical size,the dynamic model of exoskeletons is difficult to construct.Hence,an enhanced whale optimization algorithm(EWOA)is proposed to identify the exoskeleton model parameters.Meanwhile,the periodic excitation trajectories are designed by finite Fourier series to input the desired position demand of exoskeletons with mechanical physical constraints.Then a backstepping controller based on the identified model is adopted to improve the human-robot wearable comfortable performance under cooperative motion.Finally,the proposed Model parameters identification and control are verified by a two-DOF exoskeletons platform.The knee joint motion achieves a steady-state response after 0.5 s.Meanwhile,the position error of hip joint response is less than 0.03 rad after 0.9 s.In addition,the steady-state human-robot interaction torque of the two joints is constrained within 15 N·m.This research proposes a whale optimization algorithm to optimize the excitation trajectory and identify model parameters.Furthermore,an enhanced mutation strategy is adopted to avoid whale evolution’s unsatisfactory local optimal value.

A hybrid identification model based on multilayer artificial neural networks(ANNs) and particle swarm optimization(PSO) algorithm is developed to improve the simultaneous identification efficiency of thermal conductivity and effective absorption coefficient of semitransparent materials.For the direct model,the spherical harmonic method and the finite volume method are used to solve the coupled conduction-radiation heat transfer problem in an absorbing,emitting,and non-scattering 2D axisymmetric gray medium in the background of laser flash method.For the identification part,firstly,the temperature field and the incident radiation field in different positions are chosen as observables.Then,a traditional identification model based on PSO algorithm is established.Finally,multilayer ANNs are built to fit and replace the direct model in the traditional identification model to speed up the identification process.The results show that compared with the traditional identification model,the time cost of the hybrid identification model is reduced by about 1 000 times.Besides,the hybrid identification model remains a high level of accuracy even with measurement errors.

Generalized Yule-walker and two-stage identification algorithms for dual-rate systems

In this paper, two approaches are developed for directly identifying single-rate models of dual-rate stochastic systems in which the input updating frequency is an integer multiple of the output sampling frequency. The first is the generalized Yule-Walker algorithm and the second is a two-stage algorithm based on the correlation technique. The basic idea is to directly identify the parameters of underlying single-rate models instead of the lifted models of dual-rate systems from the dual-rate input-output data, assuming that the measurement data are stationary and ergodic. An example is given.

Nonlinear Modeling and Identification of the Electro-hydraulic Control System of an Excavator Arm Using BONL Model

Electro-hydraulic control systems are nonlinear in nature and their mathematic models have unknown parameters. Existing research of modeling and identification of the electro-hydraulic control system is mainly based on theoretical state space model, and the parameters identification is hard due to its demand on internal states measurement. Moreover, there are also some hard-to-model nonlinearities in theoretical model, which needs to be overcome. Modeling and identification of the electro-hydraulic control system of an excavator arm based on block-oriented nonlinear（BONL） models is investigated. The nonlinear state space model of the system is built first, and field tests are carried out to reveal the nonlinear characteristics of the system. Based on the physic insight into the system, three BONL models are adopted to describe the highly nonlinear system. The Hammerstein model is composed of a two-segment polynomial nonlinearity followed by a linear dynamic subsystem. The Hammerstein-Wiener（H-W） model is represented by the Hammerstein model in cascade with another single polynomial nonlinearity. A novel Pseudo-Hammerstein-Wiener（P-H-W） model is developed by replacing the single polynomial of the H-W model by a non-smooth backlash function. The key term separation principle is applied to simplify the BONL models into linear-in-parameters struc^tres. Then, a modified recursive least square algorithm（MRLSA） with iterative estimation of internal variables is developed to identify the all the parameters simultaneously. The identification results demonstrate that the BONL models with two-segment polynomial nonlinearities are able to capture the system behavior, and the P-H-W model has the best prediction accuracy. Comparison experiments show that the velocity prediction error of the P-H-W model is reduced by 14%, 30% and 75% to the H-W model, Hammerstein model, and extended auto-regressive （ARX） model, respectively. This research is helpful in controller design, system monitoring and diagnosis.

This paper proposes a system identification framework based on eigensystem realization to accurately model power electronic converters.The proposed framework affords an energy-based optimal reduction method to precisely identify the dynamics of power electronic converters from simulated or actual raw data measured at the converter’s ports.This method does not require any prior knowledge of the topology or internal parameters of the converter to derive the system modal information.The accuracy and feasibility of the proposed method are exhaustively evaluated via simulations and practical tests on a software-simulated and hardware-implemented dual active bridge(DAB)converter under steady-state and transient conditions.After various comparisons with the Fourier series-based generalized average model,switching model,and experimental measurements,the proposed method attains a root mean square error(RMSE)of less than 1%with respect to the actual raw data.Moreover,the computational effort is reduced to 1/8.6 of the Fourier series-based model.

System Identification Method for Small Unmanned Helicopter Based on Improved Particle Swarm Optimization

This paper proposes a novel method for Small Unmanned Helicopter （SUH） system identification based on Improved Particle Swarm Optimization （IPSO）. In the proposed IPSO, every particle will do a local search as a ＂self-check＂ before up- dating the global velocity and position. Then, the global best particle is created by a certain number of elitist particles in order to get a rapid rate of convergence during calculation. Thus both the diversity and convergence speed can be taken into considera- tion during a search. Formulated by the first principles derivation, a state-space model is built for the analysis of dynamic modes of an experimental SUH. The helicopter is equipped with an Attitude Heading Reference System （AHRS） and the corresponding data storage modules, which are used for flight test data measurement and recording. After data collection and reconstruction, the input and output data are utilized to determine the corresponding aerodynamic parameters of the state-space model. The predictive accuracy and fidelity of the identified model are verified by making a time-domain comparison between the responses from the simulation model and the responses from actual flight experiments. The results show that the characteristics of the experimental SUH can be determined accurately using the identified model and the new method can be used for SUH system identification with high efficiency and reliability.

An Approach to Polynomial NARX/NARMAX Systems Identification in a Closed-loop with Variable Structure Control

Many physical processes have nonlinear behavior which can be well represented by a polynomial NARX or NARMAX model. The identification of such models has been widely explored in literature. The majority of these approaches are for the open-loop identification. However, for reasons such as safety and production restrictions, open-loop identification cannot always be done. In such cases, closed-loop identification is necessary. This paper presents a two-step approach to closed-loop identification of the polynomial NARX/NARMAX systems with variable structure control （VSC）. First, a genetic algorithm （GA） is used to maximize the similarity of VSC signal to white noise by tuning the switching function parameters. Second, the system is simulated again and its parameters are estimated by an algorithm of the least square （LS） family. Finally, simulation examples are given to show the validity of the proposed approach.

Recursive State-space Model Identification of Non-uniformly Sampled Systems Using Singular Value Decomposition

In this paper a recursive state-space model identification method is proposed for non-uniformly sampled systems in industrial applications. Two cases for measuring all states and only output(s) of such a system are considered for identification. In the case of state measurement, an identification algorithm based on the singular value decomposition(SVD) is developed to estimate the model parameter matrices by using the least-squares fitting. In the case of output measurement only, another identification algorithm is given by combining the SVD approach with a hierarchical identification strategy. An example is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed identification method.

Industrial practical results show that the whole system can greatly decrease the power consumption of EZP and increase the time sharing profits.

Parameter Identification Based on a Modified PSO Applied to Suspension System

This paper presents a novel modified particle swarm optimization algorithm (MPSO) for both offline and online parametric identification of dynamic models. The MPSO is applied for identifying a suspension system introduced by a quarter-car model. A novel mutation mechanism is employed in MPSO to enhance global search ability and increase convergence speed of basic PSO (BPSO) algorithm. MPSO optimization is used to find the optimum values of parameters by minimizing the sum of squares error. The performance of the MPSO is compared with other optimization methods including BPSO and Genetic Algorithm (GA) in offline parameter identification. The simulating results show that this algorithm not only has advantage of convergence property over BPSO and GA, but also can avoid the premature convergence problem effectively. The MPSO algorithm is also improved to detect and determine the variation of parameters. This novel algorithm is successfully applied for online parameter identification of suspension system.

DC-FIPD: Fraudulent IP Identification Method Based on Homology Detection

Currently,telecom fraud is expanding from the traditional telephone network to the Internet,and identifying fraudulent IPs is of great significance for reducing Internet telecom fraud and protecting consumer rights.However,existing telecom fraud identification methods based on blacklists,reputation,content and behavioral characteristics have good identification performance in the telephone network,but it is difficult to apply to the Internet where IP(Internet Protocol)addresses change dynamically.To address this issue,we propose a fraudulent IP identification method based on homology detection and DBSCAN(Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise)clustering(DC-FIPD).First,we analyze the aggregation of fraudulent IP geographies and the homology of IP addresses.Next,the collected fraudulent IPs are clustered geographically to obtain the regional distribution of fraudulent IPs.Then,we constructed the fraudulent IP feature set,used the genetic optimization algorithm to determine the weights of the fraudulent IP features,and designed the calculation method of the IP risk value to give the risk value threshold of the fraudulent IP.Finally,the risk value of the target IP is calculated and the IP is identified based on the risk value threshold.Experimental results on a real-world telecom fraud detection dataset show that the DC-FIPD method achieves an average identification accuracy of 86.64%for fraudulent IPs.Additionally,the method records a precision of 86.08%,a recall of 45.24%,and an F1-score of 59.31%,offering a comprehensive evaluation of its performance in fraud detection.These results highlight the DC-FIPD method’s effectiveness in addressing the challenges of fraudulent IP identification.
