This paper presents new learning schemes using feedback-error-learning for a neural network model applied to adaptive nonlinear feedback control. Feedback-error-learning was proposed as a learning method for forming a feedforward controller that uses the output of a feedback controller as the error for training a neural network model. Using new schemes for nonlinear feedback control, the actual...

This study examined age differences in error processing and reinforcement learning. We were interested in whether the electrophysiological correlates of error processing, the error-related negativity (ERN) and the feedback-related negativity (FRN), reflect learning-related changes in younger and older adults. To do so, we applied a probabilistic learning task in which we manipulated the validit...

In this paper, a new control method based on FEL electro hydraulic servo control withnonlinear flux and internal friction, has been presented. The new approach based oncontrollers combined by a classic PD controller and a fuzzy controller is smart. This newtechnique has a good ability to control the performance and stability. Simulations have beencarried out in Matlab environment and the result...

We discuss the feasibility of a soft-x-ray distributed feedback laser (DFL) pumped by an xray free electron laser (X-FEL). The DFL under consideration is a Mg/SiC bi-layered Bragg reflector pumped by a single X-FEL bunch at 57.4 eV, stimulating the Mg L2,3 emission at 49 eV corresponding to the 3s-3d -> 2p1/2,3/2 transition. Based on a model developed by Yariv and Yeh and an extended coupled-wa...

The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) will be the world’s first x-ray free-electron laser (FEL). To ensure the vitality of FEL lasing, a longitudinal feedback system is required together with other diagnostics. In this paper, we study the possibility of using Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) from the chicane as a diagnostic tool for bunch length feedback. Studies show that CSR is a good ca...

Accumulating evidence suggests that individual differences in punishment and reward sensitivity are associated with functional alterations in neural systems underlying error and feedback processing. In particular, individuals highly sensitive to punishment have been found to be characterized by larger mediofrontal error signals as reflected in the error negativity/error-related negativity (Ne/E...

In human motor learning, it is thought that the more information we have about our errors, the faster we learn. Here, we show that additional error information can lead to improved motor performance without any concomitant improvement in learning. We studied split-belt treadmill walking that drives people to learn a new gait pattern using sensory prediction errors detected by proprioceptive fee...

100-200 MeV range ERL driven high gain FEL oscillators generating few cycle short, high intensity midIR pulses with tens of MHz repetition rates might become attractive tools in various strong field applications. In a recent study a mode-locked, coupled FEL oscillator scheme has been presented to generate multi-mJ level, ultra-short (<10 cycles) output pulses tunable within the entire IR region...
