Neuro-adaptive control of robotic manipulators

摘要

SUMMARY The need to meet demanding control requirements in increasingly complex dynamical control systems under significant uncertainties makes neural networks very attractive, because of their ability to learn, to approximate functions, to classify patterns and because of their potential for massively parallel hardware implementation. This paper proposes the use of artificial neural networks (ANN) as a novel approach to the control of robot manipulators. These are part of the general class of non-linear dynamic systems where non-linear compensators are required in the controller.
