چکیده

Reproducing the smooth vocal tract trajectories is critical for high quality articulatory speech synthesis. This paper presents an adaptive neural control scheme based on fuzzy logic and neural networks. The control scheme estimates motor commands from trajectories of flesh-points on selected articulators. These motor commands are then used to reproduce the trajectories based on 2nd order dynamical systems for the underlying articulators. Experiments show that the control scheme is able to manipulate the mass-spring based elastic tract walls in a 2-D articulatory synthesizer to realize efficient speech motor control. In particular, the proposed controller achieves high accuracy during on-line tracking of the lips, the tongue, and the jaw in the simulation of consonant-vowel sequences. It also offers salient features such as generality and adaptability for future developments of control models in articulatory synthesis.

Robust Adaptive Neural Control of the Blood Glucose for Type 1 Diabetic Patients in Presence of Meals

In this paper, the blood glucose control for type 1 diabetic patients in the presence of model uncertainties and uncertain meals is considered. In order to present an efficient control approach, it is assumed that the dynamics describe the mechanism of the blood glucose regulation in type 1 diabetic patients are completely unknown. Hence, based on the universal approximation property of the rad...

Coordinated Control of a Tractor-Trailer and a Combine Harvester by Neural Adaptive Robust Control

In this paper, the coordinated control problem of a tractor-trailer and a combine harvester is taken into account in the presence of model uncertainties by using the leader-following approach to track a reference trajectory for the first time. At first, a second-order leader-follower dynamic model is developed in Euler-Lagrange form which preserves all structural properties of the dynamic model...

Designing a Robust Control Scheme for Robotic Systems with an Adaptive Observer

This paper introduces a robust task-space control scheme for a robotic system with an adaptive observer. The proposed approach does not require the availability of the system states and an adaptive observer is developed to estimate the state variables. These estimated states are then used in the control scheme. First, the dynamic model of a robot is derived. Next, an observer-based robust contr...

Real-Time Output Feedback Neurolinearization

 An adaptive input-output linearization method for general nonlinear systems is developed without using states of the system. Another key feature of this structure is the fact that, it does not need model of the system. In this scheme, neurolinearizer has few weights, so it is practical in adaptive situations.  Online training of neuroline...
