Abstract

The paper introduces artificial neural networks for the conventional control of robotic systems for better tracking performance. Different advanced dynamic control techniques are explained and a new second order recursive algorithm has been developed to tune the weights of the neural network. The problem of real-time control of a Pendubot system in difficult situations has been addressed. Examples, such as positioning and balancing structures, are presented and performances are compared to a conventional PD controller.
