RESUMO
This paper designs an interval type-2 fuzzy neural network sliding mode robust controller (IT2FNNSMRC) to improve the stability of the vibrational angle of the orbital plane in magnetic rigid spacecraft attitude control. The control system consists of an interval type-2 fuzzy neural network (IT2FNN) controller, a PD controller, and a robust controller in parallel connection. The IT2FNN controller, as a nonlinear regulator, compensates the nonlinearity of the controlled object; the PD controller, as a feedback controller, ensures the global asymptotic stability of the control system; the robust controller inhibits input load disturbance. The IT2FNN controller hereof has a self-organizing function which enables it to automatically determine the network structure and parameters online. At the stage of IT2FNN structure learning, the standard on rule growth is set according to the incentive intensities of IT2FNN rule premises. A new rule is generated when the incentive intensities of rules are all smaller than a certain threshold; next, a significance index is set for each rule. When the significance index of some rule decays to a certain threshold, the corresponding rule shall be deleted to achieve the goals of optimizing IT2FNN structure and reducing system complexity. At the stage of parameter learning, adaptive adjustment of IT2FNN parameters is made via the sliding mode control theory learning algorithm, and the stabilities of the algorithm and control system are proven using Lyapunov function. Finally, the proposed control scheme is used in the control of a magnetic rigid spacecraft, as compared to three other designed control methods. Simulation results show that IT2FNNSMRC has superior control precision and stability. And the IT2FNN which adopts the proposed learning algorithm can address uncertainty satisfactorily, with higher computational implementability.
RESUMO
This study introduces a novel self-organizing recurrent interval type-2 fuzzy neural network (SRIT2FNN) for the construction of a soft sensor model for a complex chemical process. The proposed SRIT2FNN combines interval type-2 fuzzy logic systems (IT2FLSs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) to improve the modeling precision. The Gaussian interval type-2 membership function is used to describe the antecedent part of the SRIT2FNN fuzzy rule, and the consequent part is of the Mamdani type with an interval random number. An adaptive optimal clustering number of fuzzy kernel clustering algorithm based on a Gaussian kernel validity index (GKVI-AOCN-FKCM) is developed to determine the structure of the SRIT2FNN and fuzzy rule antecedent parameters, and the parameter learning of SRIT2FNN used the gradient descent method. Finally, the proposed SRIT2FNN is applied to the soft sensor modeling of ethylene cracking furnace yield in a typical chemical process. Comparisons between the SRIT2FNN and conventional fuzzy neural network (FNN) and interval type-2 fuzzy neural network (IT2FNN) are made via simulation experiments. The results show that the proposed SRIT2FNN performs better than the conventional FNN and IT2FNN.
