In this method, the long-short-term memory(LSTM) neural network is nested into the extended Kalman filter(EKF) to modify the Kalman gain such that the filtering performance is improved in the presence of large model uncertainties. To avoid the unstable network output caused by the abrupt changes of system states,an adaptive correction factor is introduced to correct the network output online. In the process of training the network, a multi-gradient descent learning mode is proposed to better fit the internal state of the system, and a rolling training is used to implement an online prediction logic. Based on the Lyapunov second method, we discuss the stability of the system, the result shows that when the training error of neural network is sufficiently small, the system is asymptotically stable. With its application to the estimation of time-varying parameters of a missile dual control system, the LSTM-EKF shows better filtering performance than the EKF and adaptive EKF(AEKF) when there exist large uncertainties in the system model.展开更多

The ...The precise control of turbofan engines thrust is an important guarantee for an aircraft to obtain good flight performance and a challenge due to complex nonlinear dynamics of engines and time-varying parameters. The main difficulties lie in the following two aspects. Firstly, it is hard to obtain an accurate kinetic model for the turbofan engine. Secondly, some model parameters often change in different flight conditions and states and even fluctuate sharply in some cases. These variable parameters bring huge challenge for the turbofan engine control. To solve the turbofan engine control problem, this paper presents a non-affine parameter-dependent Linear Parameter Varying(LPV) model-based adaptive control approach. In this approach, polynomial-based LPV modeling method is firstly employed to obtain the basis matrices, and then the Radial Basis Function Neural Networks(RBFNN) is introduced for the online estimation of the non-affine model parameters to improve the simulation performance. LPV model-based Linear Matrix Inequality(LMI) control method is applied to derive the control law. A robust control term is introduced to fix the estimation error of the nonlinear time-varying model parameters for better control performance. Finally, the Lyapunov stability analysis is performed to ensure the asymptotical convergence of the closed loop system. The simulation results show that the states of the engine can change smoothly and the thrust of the engine can accurately follow the desired trajectory, indicating that the proposed control approach is effective. The contribution of this work lies in the combination of linear system control and nonlinear system control methods to design an effective controller for the turbofan engine and to provide a new way for turbofan engine control research.展开更多

The m...This paper proposes a parameter determination method of distribution voltage regulators load ratio control transformers (LRT) and step voltage regulators (SVR) considering the tap change and voltage profile. The method takes two procedures in order to simplify the optimization problem and to reduce calculation time. One is to simultaneously determine the control parameters of LRT and SVR minimizing voltage violations and voltage variations. The algorithm is based on particle swarm optimization (PSO), which is one of non-linear optimization methods by using a concept of swarm intelligence. Another is to determine the dead-band width of LRT and SVR on the basis of bi-evaluation of tap change and voltage margin. The concept of a Pareto optimal solution is used for the decision of the best dead-band width. As the results of numerical simulations using distribution network model, the validity of the proposed method has been affirmed.展开更多

There are two main approaches to parameter setting: parameter tuning and parameter control. In this paper, we introduce self-adaptive parameter control of a genetic algorithm based on Bayesian network learning and simulation. The nodes of this Bayesian network are genetic algorithm parameters to be controlled. Its structure captures probabilistie conditional (in)dependence relationships between the parameters. They are learned from the best individuals, i.e., the best configurations of the genetic algorithm. Individuals are evaluated by running the genetic algorithm for the respective parameter configuration. Since all these runs are time-consuming tasks, each genetic algorithm uses a small-sized population and is stopped before convergence. In this way promising individuals should not be lost. Experiments with an optimal search problem for simultaneous row and column orderings yield the same optima as state-of-the-art methods but with a sharp reduction in computational time. Moreover, our approach can cope with as yet unsolved high-dimensional problems.展开更多
