Relaxed Stability and Performance LMI Conditions for Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy Systems With Polynomial Constraints on Membership Function Shapes
2008
Most linear matrix inequality (LMI) fuzzy control results in literature are valid for any membership function, i.e., independent of the actual membership shape. Hence, they are conservative (with respect to other nonlinear control approaches) when specific knowledge of the shapes is available. This paper presents relaxed LMI conditions for fuzzy control that incorporate such shape information in the form of polynomial constraints, generalizing previous works by the authors. Interesting particular cases are overlap (product) bounds and ellipsoidal regions. Numerical examples illustrate the achieved improvements, as well as the possibilities of solving some multiobjective problems. The result…
Design of robust observer for T-S fuzzy time-delayed systems subject to unknown inputs
2013
In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to design a robust observer for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy models with unknown inputs and delays. The main contribution of this paper is to consider unknown inputs and a mixed neutral and discrete delay in the model. Also, the system is subject to disturbances, which are imposed on both state and output signals. Delay-dependent sufficient conditions for the design of an unknown input T-S observer with time delays are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Some relaxations are introduced by using intermediate variables. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the given results.
A fuzzy approach to the evaluation of image complexity
2009
The inherently multidimensional problem of evaluating the complexity of an image is of a certain relevance in both computer science and cognitive psychology. Computer scientists usually analyze spatial dimensions in order to deal with automatic vision problems, such as feature extraction. Psychologists seem more interested in the temporal dimension of complexity, as a means to explore attentional models. Is it possible to define, by merging both approaches, a more general index of visual complexity? The aim of this paper is the definition of objective measures of image complexity that fits with the so named perceived time. Towards the end we have defined a fuzzy mathematical model of visual…
Fuzzy Control Strategy for Cooperative Non-holonomic Motion of Cybercars with Passengers Vibration Analysis
2021
The cybercars are electric road wheeled non-holonomic vehicles with fully automated driving capabilities. They contribute to sustainable mobility and are employed as passenger vehicles. Non-holonomic mechanics describes the motion of the cybercar constrained by non-integrable constraints, i.e. constraints on the system velocities that do not arise from constraints on the configuration alone. First of all there are thus with dynamic nonholonomic constraints, i.e. constraints preserved by the basic Euler-Lagrange equations (Bloch, 2000; Melluso, 2007; Raimondi & Melluso, 2006-a). Of course, these constraints are not externally imposed on the system but rather are consequences of the equations…
Fuzzy EKF Control for Wheeled Nonholonomic Vehicles
2006
In this paper a new Fuzzy extended Kalman robust control system for position and orientation tracking of nonholonomic vehicles with two wheels actuated by two independent DC motors is presented. The problem of robustness and localization are solved simultaneously. About the robustness, some perturbations coming from the outside environment and depending on the contact between the wheels and the ground, involve violations of the nonholonomic constraints. The fuzzy controller of this work is able to obtain a dynamic term of robustness with respect to the perturbations above. However, by using encoders only, the measures of actual position and orientation of the vehicle are with Gaussian noise…
Fuzzy cooperative control of automated ground passenger vehicles
2007
In this paper a fuzzy motion control for cooperative passenger automated vehicles where there are not collisions between the closest ones is proposed. Based on the position of the target and on the initial position of each cooperative vehicle, a supervisory plans nonholonomic circular trajectories which are without intersections, while a fuzzy control strategy assures the asymptotical stability of the motion errors and the reaching of the target with low acceleration values along the planned trajectories. Based on the ISO 2631-1 standard, the saturation properties of the fuzzy maps guarantees low values of the longitudinal and lateral accelerations to assure the comfort of the passengers. T…
Predictive Intelligent Fuzzy Control for Cooperative Motion of Two Nonholonomic Wheeled Cars
2007
In this paper a problem of intelligent cooperative motion control of two wheeled nonholonomic cars (target and follower) is considered. Once a target car converges to a fixed state (position and orientation), a follower car coming from different position and orientation, converges to the state above, without excessive delay between the known arrival time of the target car and the arrival time of the follower. In this sense we present a new predictive fuzzy control system. A Kalman's filter and an odometric model are used to predict the future position and orientation of the target car. The prediction above is employed to plane a circular nonholonomic reference motion for the follower car. A…
Non-fragile fuzzy control design for nonlinear time-delay systems
2013
In this paper, a non-fragile fuzzy control design is proposed for a class of nonlinear systems with mixed discrete and distributed time delays. The Takagi and Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy set approach is applied to the modelling of the nonlinear dynamics, and a T-S fuzzy model is constructed, which can represent the nonlinear system. Then, based on the fuzzy linear model, a fuzzy linear controller is developed to stabilize the nonlinear system. The control law is obtained to ensure stochastically exponentially stability in the mean square. The sufficient conditions for the existence of such a control are proposed in terms of certain linear matrix inequalities.
Observer-based finite-time control for discrete fuzzy jump nonlinear systems with time delays
2013
This paper investigates the problem of observer-based finite-time H∞ control for a family of discrete jump nonlinear systems with time delays represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) model. The main contribution of this paper is to design an observer-based finite-time H∞ controller such that the resulting closed-loop system is stochastic finite-time bounded and satisfies a prescribed H∞ disturbance attenuation level over the given finite-time interval. Sufficient criteria on stochastic finite-time H∞ stabilization via observer-based fuzzy state feedback are provided for the solvability of the problem, which can be tackled by a feasibility problem in terms of linear matrix inequalities. A simulati…
Finite-time stabilization for discrete fuzzy jump nonlinear systems with time delays
2013
This paper is concerned with the problem of finite-time H∞ control for a class of discrete-time Markovian jump nonlinear systems with time delays represented by Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) model. First, by using fuzzy stochastic Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach, sufficient conditions are derived such that the resulting close-loop system is stochastic finite-time bounded and satisfies a prescribed H∞ disturbance attenuation level in a given finite-time interval. Second, sufficient criteria on stochastic finite-time H∞ stabilization via fuzzy state feedback are provided, and the fuzzy state feedback controller is designed by solving an optimization problem in terms of linear matrix inequalitie…
