Control of uncertain highly nonlinear biological process based on Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy models

2015

This note deals with the control of uncertain highly nonlinear biological processes. Indeed, an adaptive fuzzy control (AFC) scheme is developed for the pre-treatment of wastewater represented by a Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy model. The proposed approach uses a fuzzy system to approximate the unknown substrate consumption rate in designing the adaptive controller, and then an observer is designed to estimate the concentration in substrate at the outlet bioreactor. The observer is employed to generate an error signal for the adaptive control law which permits to minimize the influence of the measurement noise on the estimation of the substrate concentration. An update of the fuzzy models parame…

Design of unknown inputs proportional integral observers for TS fuzzy models

2014

In this paper the design of unknown inputs proportional integral observers for Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models subject to unmeasurable decision variables is proposed. These unknown inputs affect both state and output of the system. The synthesis of these observers is based on two hypotheses that the unknown inputs are under the polynomials form with their kth derivatives zero for the first one and bounded norm for the second one, hence two approaches. The Lyapunov theory and L"2-gain technique are used to develop the stability conditions of such observers in LMIs (linear matrix inequality) formulation. A simulation example is given to validate and compare the proposed design conditions for …

Stability analysis and controller design for a class of T-S fuzzy Markov jump system with uncertain expectation of packet dropouts

2013

This paper is concerned with an H∞ control for a class of Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy Markov jump system under unreliable communication links. It is assumed that the transition probabilities determining the dynamical behavior of the underlying system are partially unknown and the communication links between the plant and the controller are imperfect (the packet dropouts occur intermittently). In this paper, a more practical scenario is considered in the setting, i.e., the expectation of packet losses represented as a description of Bernoulli-distributed stochastic process is uncertain. Attention is focused on the design of H∞ controllers such that the closed-loop system is stochastically stab…

Chaos Synchronization Based on Unknown Input Proportional Multiple-Integral Fuzzy Observer

2013

Published version of an article in the journal: Abstract and Applied Analysis. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/670878 Open Access This paper presents an unknown input Proportional Multiple-Integral Observer (PIO) for synchronization of chaotic systems based on Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy chaotic models subject to unmeasurable decision variables and unknown input. In a secure communication configuration, this unknown input is regarded as a message encoded in the chaotic system and recovered by the proposed PIO. Both states and outputs of the fuzzy chaotic models are subject to polynomial unknown input with kth derivative zero. Using Lyapunov stability theory…

Dynamic Output-Feedback Passivity Control for Fuzzy Systems under Variable Sampling

2013

Published version of an article in the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2013/767093 Open Access This paper concerns the problem of dynamic output-feedback control for a class of nonlinear systems with nonuniform uncertain sampling via Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy control approach. The sampling is not required to be periodic, and the state variables are not required to be measurable. A new type fuzzy dynamic output-feedback sampled-data controller is constructed, and a novel time-dependent Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is chosen for fuzzy systems under variable sampling. By using Lyapunov stability theory, a sufficie…

USE OF FUZZY NEURAL NETWORKS IN MODELING RELATIONSHIPS OF HPV INFECTION WITH APOPTOTIC AND PROLIFERATION MARKERS IN POTENTIALLY MALIGNANT ORAL LESIONS

2005

To evaluate in oral leukoplakia the relationship between HPV infection and markers of apoptosis (bcl-2, survivin) and proliferation (PCNA), also conditionally to age, gender, smoking and drinking habits of patients, by means of Fuzzy neural networks (FNN) system 21 cases of oral leukopakia, clinically and histologically diagnosed, were examined for HPV DNA presence, bcl-2, survivin and PCNA expression. HPV DNA was investigated in exfoliated oral mucosa cells by nested PCR (nPCR: MY09-MY11/GP5-GP6), and the HPV genotype determined by direct DNA sequencing. All markers were investigated by means of standardised immunohistochemistry procedure. Data were analysed by chi-square test, crude OR an…

Do Financial Crises Moderate Entrepreneurial Recipes? A Comparative Fuzzy Analysis

2016

ABSTRACTThis study performs a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) on entrepreneurial recipes. The research focuses on the moderating role of the 2007 financial crisis on the antecedents of entrepreneurship. Standard regressions analysis proves insufficient to uncover asymmetrical and complex relationships that explain the effect of credit constraints on new business. Empirical results on longitudinal data suggest that the crisis moderated entrepreneurial recipes in Spain. This research contributes to QCA analysis by studying moderation effects on time-series data.

Fuzzy Distributed Genetic Approaches for Image Segmentation

2010

This paper presents a new image segmentation algorithm (called FDGA-Seg) based on a combination of fuzzy logic, multiagent systems and genetic algorithms. We propose to use a fuzzy representation of the image site labels by introducing some imprecision in the gray tones values. The distributivity of FDGA-Seg comes from the fact that it is designed around a MultiAgent System (MAS) working with two different architectures based on the master-slave and island models. A rich set of experimental segmentation results given by FDGA-Seg is discussed and compared to the ICM results in the last section.

A Computer Control System for the Hydraulic Stand MZPK 100 for Biaxial Fatigue Testing

2006

This paper presents a two-channel digital control system for the hydraulic stand MZPK 100 designed for fatigue tests of cruciform specimens under biaxial tension-compression. In the past, the fatigue test stand MZPK 100 was provided with unreliable analog control power cubicles. Application of the computer with an analog and digital input-output signal path board, Matlab/Simulink software and a new control box equipped with the necessary electronic subassemblies (responsible for proper switching of the hydraulic supplier, command electrovalves, conditioning of signals from sensors and so on) enables replacement of the old analog system by a new two-channel digital control system. Nowadays, …
