Accurate estimation of sideslip angle is essential for vehicle stability control. For commercial vehicles, the estimation of sideslip angle is challenging due to severe load transfer and tire nonlinearity. This paper presents a robust sideslip angle observer of commercial vehicles based on identification of tire cornering stiffness. Since tire cornering stiffness of commercial vehicles is greatly affected by tire force and road adhesion coefficient, it cannot be treated as a constant. To estimate the cornering stiffness in real time, the neural network model constructed by Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation (LMBP) algorithm is employed. LMBP is a fast convergent supervised learning algorithm, which combines the steepest descent method and gauss-newton method, and is widely used in system parameter estimation. LMBP does not rely on the mathematical model of the actual system when building the neural network. Therefore, when the mathematical model is difficult to establish, LMBP can play a very good role. Considering the complexity of tire modeling, this study adopted LMBP algorithm to estimate tire cornering stiffness, which have simplified the tire model and improved the estimation accuracy. Combined with neural network, A time-varying Kalman filter (TVKF) is designed to observe the sideslip angle of commercial vehicles. To validate the feasibility of the proposed estimation algorithm, multiple driving maneuvers under different road surface friction have been carried out. The test results show that the proposed method has better accuracy than the existing algorithm, and it’s robust over a wide range of driving conditions.

AbstractDespite the rapid progress and interest in brain-machine interfaces that restore motor function, the performance of prosthetic fingers and limbs has yet to mimic native function. The algorithm that converts brain signals to a control signal for the prosthetic device is one of the limitations in achieving rapid and realistic finger movements. To achieve more realistic finger movements, we developed a shallow feed-forward neural network, loosely inspired by the biological neural pathway, to decode real-time two-degree-of-freedom finger movements. Using a two-step training method, a recalibrated feedback intention–trained (ReFIT) neural network achieved a higher throughput with higher finger velocities and more natural appearing finger movements than the ReFIT Kalman filter, which represents the current standard. The neural network decoders introduced herein are the first to demonstrate real-time decoding of continuous movements at a level superior to the current state-of-the-art and could provide a starting point to using neural networks for the development of more naturalistic brain-controlled prostheses.

In this paper authors present the results of a research that had a purpose to develop a method of constructing a neuroregulator model for the case of optimization of the control structure of a technological cycle. The method's implementation is based upon the automation of a production process when a physical controller, that operates the technological process according to a given program, is present. In order to achieve this goal, the artificial neural network approaches were implemented to create a mathematical model of the neuroregulator. The mathematical model of the neuroregulator is based on a physical prototype, and the procedure of a real-time control synthesis (adaptive control) is based on recurrent neural network training. The neural network architecture includes LSTM blocks, which are capable of storing information for long periods of time. A method is proposed for constructing a neuroregulator model for control of a production cycle when solving the task of the optimal trajectory finding on the phase plane of the technological cycle states. In the considered task of the optimal trajectory finding the mathematical model of the neuroregulator receives at each moment of time information about the current system state, the adjacent system states and the movement direction on the phase plane of states. Movement direction is determined by the given control optimization criteria. Based on the research results it was found that recurrent networks with LSTM modules can be used successfully as an approximator for the agent's Q-function to solve the given problem when the partially observed region of system states has a complex structure. The choice of the method of adaptation to the control actions and the external environmental disturbances proposed in the paper satisfies the requirements for the adatation process performance, as well as the requierments for the control processes quality, when there is lack of information about the nature of random control disturbances. The experimental environment, as well as the neural network models was implemented using the Python programming language with TensorFlow library.

he paper presents a procedure for studying the stability of modeling an artificial neural network as applied to the thermal characteristics of machine tools. The topicality of this procedure is dictated by the ambiguity of the results generated by the neural network when constructing the predicted thermal characteristics of machine tools. Therefore, to select one of the possible solutions generated by the neural network, it was proposed to use two criteria. The effectiveness of their use is confirmed by the presented machine experiments. The methodology proposed in this work has made it possible to form a generalized concept for studying the effectiveness of the use of neural network technologies in thermal modeling of machine tools. This concept defines a typical set of variable modeling parameters, a basic mathematical model based on a modal approach, and an architecture of a typical software tool that can be developed to study the effectiveness of artificial neural network modeling. For each variant of the input data of the network, the following parameters were varied: the number of neurons in the hidden layer; the size of the input and output vectors; input vectors error; the size of the training, validation and test sample; functional features of thermal characteristics supplied to the network input or their multimodality; the presence and absence of normalization of the input vector. The paper presents experimental thermal characteristics for two spindle speeds of a vertical CNC machine. The results of the machine experiment are presented for six variants of the variable parameters of the mathematical model. The software tool used to carry out the machine experiment was developed in Matlab.

An attempt has been made in this paper to develop a appropriate model for predicting the output responses of Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) process with the help of neural network technique. Also a mathematical model has been developed to study the effects of input variable (i.e. current, voltage, travel speed) on output responses (i.e. reinforcement height, weld bead width, metal deposition rate). SAW process has been chosen for this application because of the complex set of variables involved in the process as well as its significant application in the manufacturing of critical equipments which have a lot of economic and social implications. Under this study the neural network model is trained according to the actual inputs and outputs. When the training is completed then the desired inputs are given to the model and it gives the estimated output value. And according to this we can also estimate the error between the actual and predicted results. Side by side accurecy of mathematical model has been checked.

The strut is one of the most important components in a vehicle suspension system. Since it is highly non-linear it is difficult to predict its performance characteristics using a physical mathematical model. However, neural networks have been successfully used as universal ‘black-box’ models in the identification and control of non-linear systems. This approach has been used to model a novel gas strut and the neural network was trained with experimental data obtained in the laboratory from simulated road profiles. The results obtained from the neural network demonstrated good agreement with the experimental results over a wide range of operation conditions. In contrast a linearised mathematical model using least square estimates of system parameters was shown to perform badly due to the highly non-linear nature of the system. A quarter car mathematical model was developed to predict strut behavior. It was shown that the two models produced different predictions of ride performance and it was argued that the neural network was preferable as it included the effects of non-linearities. Although the neural network model does not provide a good understanding of the physical behavior of the strut it is a useful tool for assessing vehicle ride and NVH performance due to its good computational efficiency and accuracy.
