This article deals with the dynamic trajectory tracking problem of the spherical robot BHQ-2 designed for unmanned environment exploration. The dynamic model of the spherical robot is established with a simplified Boltzmann-Hamel equation, based on which a trajectory tracking controller is designed by using the back-stepping method. The convergence of the controller is proved with the Lyapunov stability theory. Numerical simulations show that with the controller the robot can globally and asymptotically track desired trajectories, both linear and circular.展开更多

In this study, the positions of moving platform are changed by extension or shortening of the three pneumatic cylinders. The response of pneumatic cylinder is relatively slow for motor actuator and can get a good single-axis trajectory control by traditional P controller, but the trajectory tracking of platform has a delay phenomenon for angle instantly larger change. To improve this situation in this study, Fuzzy system is used in the trajectory pre-compensation. By the angle changes and the angle rates of change in Fuzzy systems, the value of a pre-compensation output and each axis value are calculated using the Jacobian matrix after compensation in each axis. Through experiments, this Fuzzy pre-compensation method is proved to be able to improve the delay situation of angle trajectory tracking.展开更多

文摘This work proposes the application of an iterative learning model predictive control(ILMPC)approach based on an adaptive fault observer(FOBILMPC)for fault-tolerant control and trajectory tracking in air-breathing hypersonic vehicles.In order to increase the control amount,this online control legislation makes use of model predictive control(MPC)that is based on the concept of iterative learning control(ILC).By using offline data to decrease the linearized model’s faults,the strategy may effectively increase the robustness of the control system and guarantee that disturbances can be suppressed.An adaptive fault observer is created based on the suggested ILMPC approach in order to enhance overall fault tolerance by estimating and compensating for actuator disturbance and fault degree.During the derivation process,a linearized model of longitudinal dynamics is established.The suggested ILMPC approach is likely to be used in the design of hypersonic vehicle control systems since numerical simulations have demonstrated that it can decrease tracking error and speed up convergence when compared to the offline controller.

文摘Multi-axle Swerve-drive Autonomous Mobile Robots(MS-AMRs)equipped with independently steerable wheels are commonly used for high-payload transportation.In this work,we present a novel Model Predictive Control(MPC)method for MS-AGV trajectory tracking that takes tire wear minimization consideration in the objective function.To speed up the problem-solving process,we propose a hierarchical controller design and simplify the dynamic model by integrating the magic formula tire model and simplified tire wear model.In the experiment,the proposed method can be solved by simulated annealing in real-time on a normal personal computer and by incorporating tire wear into the objective function,tire wear is reduced by 19.19%while maintaining the tracking accuracy in curve-tracking experiments.In the more challenging scene:the desired trajectory is offset by 60 degrees from the vehicle's heading,the reduction in tire wear increased to 65.20%compared to the kinematic model without considering the tire wear optimization.

文摘Inspired by the collective behaviors observed in bird flocks and fish schools,this paper proposes a novel Decentralized Model Predictive Flocking Control(DMPFC)framework to enable UAV swarms to autonomously track predefined reference trajectories while avoiding collisions and maintaining a stable quasi[Math Processing Error]-lattice formation.Unlike traditional approaches that rely on switching between predefined swarm formations,this framework utilizes identical local interaction rules for each UAV,allowing them to dynamically adjust their control inputs based on the motion states of neighboring UAVs,external environmental factors,and the desired reference trajectory,thereby enabling the swarm to adapt its formation dynamically.Through iterative state updates,the UAVs achieve consensus,allowing the swarm to follow the reference trajectory while self-organizing into a cohesive and stable group structure.To enhance computational efficiency,the framework integrates a closed-form solution for the optimization process,enabling real-time implementation even on computationally constrained micro-quadrotors.Theoretical analysis demonstrates that the proposed method ensures swarm consensus,maintains desired inter-agent distances,and stabilizes the swarm formation.Extensive simulations and real-world experiments validate the approach’s effectiveness and practicality,demonstrating that the proposed method achieves velocity consensus within approximately 200 ms and forms a stable quasi[Math Processing Error]-lattice structure nearly ten times faster than traditional models,with trajectory tracking errors on the order of millimeters.This underscores its potential for robust and efficient UAV swarm coordination in complex scenarios.

文摘Tracking control of tendon-driven manipulators has become a prevalent research area.However,the existence of flexible elastic tendons generates substantial residual vibrations,resulting in difficulties for trajectory tracking control of the manipulator.This paper proposes the radial basis function neural network adaptive hierarchical sliding mode control(RBFNNA-HSMC)method,which combines the dynamic model of the elastic tendon-driven manipulator(ETDM)with radial basis neural network adaptive control and hierarchical sliding mode control technology.The aim is to achieve trajectory tracking control of ETDM even under conditions of model inaccuracy and disturbance.The Lyapunov stability theory demonstrates the stability of the proposed RBFNNA-HSM controller.In order to assess the effectiveness and adaptability of the proposed control method,simulations and experiments were performed on a two-DOF ETDM.The RBFNNA-HSM method shows superior tracking accuracy compared to traditional modelbased HSM control.The experiment shows that the maximum tracking error for ETDM double-joint trajectory tracking is below 2.593×10-3rad and 1.624×10-3rad,respectively.

文摘The generation of synthetic trajectories has become essential in various fields for analyzing complex movement patterns.However,the use of real-world trajectory data poses significant privacy risks,such as location reidentification and correlation attacks.To address these challenges,privacy-preserving trajectory generation methods are critical for applications relying on sensitive location data.This paper introduces DPIL-Traj,an advanced framework designed to generate synthetic trajectories while achieving a superior balance between data utility and privacy preservation.Firstly,the framework incorporates Differential Privacy Clustering,which anonymizes trajectory data by applying differential privacy techniques that add noise,ensuring the protection of sensitive user information.Secondly,Imitation Learning is used to replicate decision-making behaviors observed in real-world trajectories.By learning from expert trajectories,this component generates synthetic data that closely mimics real-world decision-making processes while optimizing the quality of the generated trajectories.Finally,Markov-based Trajectory Generation is employed to capture and maintain the inherent temporal dynamics of movement patterns.Extensive experiments conducted on the GeoLife trajectory dataset show that DPIL-Traj improves utility performance by an average of 19.85%,and in terms of privacy performance by an average of 12.51%,compared to state-of-the-art approaches.Ablation studies further reveal that DP clustering effectively safeguards privacy,imitation learning enhances utility under noise,and the Markov module strengthens temporal coherence.

文摘BACKGROUND Lumbar interbody fusion(LIF)is the primary treatment for lumbar degenerative diseases.Elderly patients are prone to anxiety and depression after undergoing surgery,which affects their postoperative recovery speed and quality of life.Effective prevention of anxiety and depression in elderly patients has become an urgent problem.AIM To investigate the trajectory of anxiety and depression levels in elderly patients after LIF,and the influencing factors.METHODS Random sampling was used to select 239 elderly patients who underwent LIF from January 2020 to December 2024 in Shenzhen Pingle Orthopedic Hospital.General information and surgery-related indices were recorded,and participants completed measures of psychological status,lumbar spine dysfunction,and quality of life.A latent class growth model was used to analyze the post-LIF trajectory of anxiety and depression levels,and unordered multi-categorical logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors.RESULTS Three trajectories of change in anxiety level were identified:Increasing anxiety(n=26,10.88%),decreasing anxiety(n=27,11.30%),and stable anxiety(n=186,77.82%).Likewise,three trajectories of change in depression level were identified:Increasing depression(n=30,12.55%),decreasing depression(n=26,10.88%),and stable depression(n=183,76.57%).Regression analysis showed that having no partner,female sex,elevated Oswestry dysfunction index(ODI)scores,and reduced 36-Item Short Form Health Survey scores all contributed to increased anxiety levels,whereas female sex,postoperative opioid use,and elevated ODI scores all contributed to increased depression levels.CONCLUSION During clinical observation,combining factors to predict anxiety and depression in post-LIF elderly patients enables timely intervention,quickens recovery,and enhances quality of life.
文摘In the field of intelligent air combat,real-time and accurate recognition of within-visual-range(WVR)maneuver actions serves as the foundational cornerstone for constructing autonomous decision-making systems.However,existing methods face two major challenges:traditional feature engineering suffers from insufficient effective dimensionality in the feature space due to kinematic coupling,making it difficult to distinguish essential differences between maneuvers,while end-to-end deep learning models lack controllability in implicit feature learning and fail to model high-order long-range temporal dependencies.This paper proposes a trajectory feature pre-extraction method based on a Long-range Masked Autoencoder(LMAE),incorporating three key innovations:(1)Random Fragment High-ratio Masking(RFH-Mask),which enforces the model to learn long-range temporal correlations by masking 80%of trajectory data while retaining continuous fragments;(2)Kalman Filter-Guided Objective Function(KFG-OF),integrating trajectory continuity constraints to align the feature space with kinematic principles;and(3)Two-stage Decoupled Architecture,enabling efficient and controllable feature learning through unsupervised pre-training and frozen-feature transfer.Experimental results demonstrate that LMAE significantly improves the average recognition accuracy for 20-class maneuvers compared to traditional end-to-end models,while significantly accelerating convergence speed.The contributions of this work lie in:introducing high-masking-rate autoencoders into low-informationdensity trajectory analysis,proposing a feature engineering framework with enhanced controllability and efficiency,and providing a novel technical pathway for intelligent air combat decision-making systems.

文摘To address the issues of frequent identity switches(IDs)and degraded identification accuracy in multi object tracking(MOT)under complex occlusion scenarios,this study proposes an occlusion-robust tracking framework based on face-pedestrian joint feature modeling.By constructing a joint tracking model centered on“intra-class independent tracking+cross-category dynamic binding”,designing a multi-modal matching metric with spatio-temporal and appearance constraints,and innovatively introducing a cross-category feature mutual verification mechanism and a dual matching strategy,this work effectively resolves performance degradation in traditional single-category tracking methods caused by short-term occlusion,cross-camera tracking,and crowded environments.Experiments on the Chokepoint_Face_Pedestrian_Track test set demonstrate that in complex scenes,the proposed method improves Face-Pedestrian Matching F1 area under the curve(F1 AUC)by approximately 4 to 43 percentage points compared to several traditional methods.The joint tracking model achieves overall performance metrics of IDF1:85.1825%and MOTA:86.5956%,representing improvements of 0.91 and 0.06 percentage points,respectively,over the baseline model.Ablation studies confirm the effectiveness of key modules such as the Intersection over Area(IoA)/Intersection over Union(IoU)joint metric and dynamic threshold adjustment,validating the significant role of the cross-category identity matching mechanism in enhancing tracking stability.Our_model shows a 16.7%frame per second(FPS)drop vs.fairness of detection and re-identification in multiple object tracking(FairMOT),with its cross-category binding module adding aboute 10%overhead,yet maintains near-real-time performance for essential face-pedestrian tracking at small resolutions.

文摘Spherical robot has good static and dynamic stability, which provides it with strong viability in hostile environment, but the lack of effective control methods has hindered its application and development. This article deals with the dynamic trajectory tracking problem of the spherical robot BHQ-2 designed for unmanned environment exploration. The dynamic model of the spherical robot is established with a simplified Boltzmann-Hamel equation, based on which a trajectory tracking controller is designed by using the back-stepping method. The convergence of the controller is proved with the Lyapunov stability theory. Numerical simulations show that with the controller the robot can globally and asymptotically track desired trajectories, both linear and circular.

文摘In order to design a suitable controller which can achieve accurate trajectory tracking and a good control performance, and guarantee the stability and robustness of a robot system due to external disturbances error and internal parameter variations, an adaptive switching control strategy is proposed. The proposed scheme is designed under the condition of bounded distances and consists of an adaptive switching law and a PD controller. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved that the proposed scheme can guarantee the tracking performance of the robotic manipulator and is adapted to varying unknown loads. Simulations are carded out on a two-link robotic manipulator, which illustrate the feasibility and validity of the proposed control scheme and the robustness for variational payloads.
文摘An angle trajectory tracking of a 3-DOF （Degree Of Freedom） pneumatic motion platform by the NI Compact RIO control system was investigated. In this study, the positions of moving platform are changed by extension or shortening of the three pneumatic cylinders. The response of pneumatic cylinder is relatively slow for motor actuator and can get a good single-axis trajectory control by traditional P controller, but the trajectory tracking of platform has a delay phenomenon for angle instantly larger change. To improve this situation in this study, Fuzzy system is used in the trajectory pre-compensation. By the angle changes and the angle rates of change in Fuzzy systems, the value of a pre-compensation output and each axis value are calculated using the Jacobian matrix after compensation in each axis. Through experiments, this Fuzzy pre-compensation method is proved to be able to improve the delay situation of angle trajectory tracking.

文摘This paper studies the trajectory tracking problem of flapping-wing micro aerial vehicles(FWMAVs)in the longitudinal plane.First of all,the kinematics and dynamics of the FWMAV are established,wherein the aerodynamic force and torque generated by flapping wings and the tail wing are explicitly formulated with respect to the flapping frequency of the wings and the degree of tail wing inclination.To achieve autonomous tracking,an adaptive control scheme is proposed under the hierarchical framework.Specifically,a bounded position controller with hyperbolic tangent functions is designed to produce the desired aerodynamic force,and a pitch command is extracted from the designed position controller.Next,an adaptive attitude controller is designed to track the extracted pitch command,where a radial basis function neural network is introduced to approximate the unknown aerodynamic perturbation torque.Finally,the flapping frequency of the wings and the degree of tail wing inclination are calculated from the designed position and attitude controllers,respectively.In terms of Lyapunov's direct method,it is shown that the tracking errors are bounded and ultimately converge to a small neighborhood around the origin.Simulations are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.
