项目摘要

0070039AnnaswamyThe use of neural networks in identification and control of engineering systems has been intensely debated over the past decade. Despite the fact that several stability results have been derived in the literature concerning neural networks in identification and control, most of them are local in nature and/or include fairly restrictive conditions under which the stability is valid. In contrast to these analytical results, the actual demonstration in applications and numerical simulations reports just the contrary: Neural networks indeed serve as powerful numerical computational units that are capable of very good approximations of nonlinear maps and provide complex functionalities of estimation, control, and optimization over a large region of operation. The goal of this project is to address this gap and develop global stability tools that are capable of explaining the true scope of operation of a neural network when used for nonlinear control. The main idea here is to directly address and exploit the distinguishing feature of nonlinear regression in neural networks and derive the underlying convergence and stability properties. Preliminary results in [I] show that it is possible to derive conditions under which global convergence takes place in identification problems using neural networks. The P.I. plans to derive training algorithms as well as conditions under which global system identification using neural networks as well as global stability using neural controllers can be derived. Various neural network structures including multi-layered perceptrons and radial basis functions will be examined. The applicability as well as limitations of gradient-like algorithms in these problems will be studied. All theoretical derivations will be complemented by simulation studies. The results from the proposed research will lead to fundamental advances in the analysis and design of complex dynamic systems in various engineering problems.***

0070039Annaswamy 在过去的十年里，神经网络在工程系统识别和控制中的使用一直受到激烈争论。尽管在有关识别和控制中的神经网络的文献中已经得出了一些稳定性结果，但其中大多数本质上是局部的和/或包括稳定性有效的相当限制性的条件。与这些分析结果相反，应用和数值模拟中的实际演示报告恰恰相反：神经网络确实作为强大的数值计算单元，能够很好地逼近非线性映射，并提供估计、控制和优化的复杂功能覆盖较大的运营区域。该项目的目标是解决这一差距并开发全局稳定性工具，这些工具能够解释神经网络用于非线性控制时的真实操作范围。这里的主要思想是直接解决和利用神经网络中非线性回归的显着特征，并推导出潜在的收敛性和稳定性特性。 [I]中的初步结果表明，可以使用神经网络导出识别问题中发生全局收敛的条件。 P.I.计划导出训练算法以及可以导出使用神经网络的全局系统识别以及使用神经控制器的全局稳定性的条件。将检查各种神经网络结构，包括多层感知器和径向基函数。将研究类梯度算法在这些问题中的适用性和局限性。所有理论推导都将得到模拟研究的补充。所提出的研究结果将导致各种工程问题中复杂动态系统的分析和设计取得根本性进展。***
