Adaptive-Fourier-neural-network-based control for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems

Fourier neural networks: A comparative study

We review neural network architectures which were motivated by Fourier series and integrals and which are referred to as Fourier neural networks. These networks are empirically evaluated in synthetic and real-world tasks. Neither of them outperforms the standard neural network with sigmoid activation function in the real-world tasks. All neural networks, both Fourier and the standard one, empirically demonstrate lower approximation error than the truncated Fourier series when it comes to approximation of a known function of multiple variables.

Reinforcement Learning-Based Differential Evolution With Cooperative Coevolution for a Compensatory Neuro-Fuzzy Controller

This paper presents the integration of reinforcement learning-based differential evolution (DE) with the cooperative coevolution (R-CCDE) method in a compensatory neuro-fuzzy controller (CNFC). The CNFC model employs compensatory fuzzy operations, which increase the adaptability and effectiveness of the controller. The R-CCDE method was used to determine an adequate control policy for nonlinear system problems. The evolution of a population involved the use of DE with cooperative coevolution to adjust CNFC parameters, and the fitness function of the R-CCDE method is used by a reinforcement signal to determine the controller that can be used to solve the control problem. This paper identified the best performing controller to solve nonlinear system problems. The simulation results of the proposed R-CCDE method were compared with those of various DE methods and the performance of the proposed R-CCDE method was superior to that of the other methods.
