In this paper, Artificial Neural Network, one of the Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, for the Volt / Var control in power distribution systems with dispersed generation (DG) is proposed. Artificial neural networks have been considered due to their ability for real time control, simpler calculations and adaptability to different operating conditions. Neuro-controllers are much more effec...

Neural networks and fuzzy systems have been the subject of much interest in recent years for the control of nonlinear processes. Much research has been directed at indirect control schemes where, basically, the neural network or fuzzy system has been used to identify the process, and a controller has been synthesised from this model. An alternative approach is that of direct control where the n...

Recently with the rapid development of technology, there are a lot of applications require to achieve low-cost learning in order to accomplish inexpensive computation. However the known computational power of classical artificial neural networks (CANN), they are not capable to provide low-cost learning due to many reasons such as linearity, complexity of architecture, etc. In contrast, quantum ...

An accurate simulation of a heating coil is used to compare the performance of a PI controller, a neural network trained to predict the steady-state output of the PI controller, a neural network trained to minimize the n-step ahead error between the coil output and the set point, and a reinforcement learning agent trained to minimize the sum of the squared error over time. Although the PI contr...

Pneumatic actuation systems are widely used in industrial automation, such as drilling, sawing, squeezing, gripping, and spraying. Also, they are used in motion control of materials and parts handling, packing machines, machine tools, food processing industry and in robotics; e.g. two-legged robot. In this paper, a Neural Network based intelligent PI controller is designed and simulated to incr...

This paper presents an off-line (finite time interval) and on-line learning direct adaptive neural controller for an unstable helicopter. The neural controller is designed to track pitch rate command signal generated using the reference model. A helicopter having a soft inplane four-bladed hingeless main rotor and a four-bladed tail rotor with conventional mechanical controls is used for the si...

A novel neural network model, termed the standard neural network model (SNNM), similar to the nominal model in linear robust control theory, is suggested to facilitate the synthesis of controllers for delayed (or non-delayed) nonlinear systems composed of neural networks. The model is composed of a linear dynamic system and a bounded static delayed (or non-delayed) nonlinear operator. Based on ...

Abstract: This paper investigates a novel recurrent neural network (NN)-based vector control approach for single-phase grid-connected converters (GCCs) with L (inductor), LC (inductor-capacitor) and LCL (inductor-capacitor-inductor) filters and provides their comparison study with the conventional standard vector control method. A single neural network controller replaces two current-loop PI co...

The use of a proposed recurrent neural network control system to control a four-legged walking robot is presented in this paper. The control system consists of a neural controller, a standard PD controller, and the walking robot. The robot is a planar four-legged walking robot. The proposed Neural Network (NN) is employed as an inverse controller of the robot. The NN has three layers, which are...

In this paper, the problems faced in the constrained force control is studied (uncertainties in dynamic model and the unknown constraints). A neural network (NN) controller is proposed based on the derived dynamic model of robot in the task space. The feed-forward neural network is used to adaptively compensate for the uncertainties in the robot dynamics. Training signals are proposed for the f...
