System identification of a mechanical system with impacts using model reference adaptive control

Design of a Model Reference Adaptive Controller Using Modified MIT Rule for a Second Order System

Sometimes conventional feedback controllers may not perform well online because of the variation in process dynamics due to nonlinear actuators, changes in environmental conditions and variation in the character of the disturbances. To overcome the above problem, this paper deals with the designing of a controller for a second order system with Model Reference Adaptive Control (MRAC) scheme usi...

Fuzzy Model Reference Adaptive Control System

– When using the Lyapunov synthesis approach to construct a stable fuzzy control system, one important way is to regard the fuzzy systems as approximators to approximate the unknown functions in the system to be controlled. Concerning the unknownness of the unknown functions, generally there are two cases: a completely unknown case, and a partly unknown case. However, most of the schemes presen...

Simulation of Direct Model Reference Adaptive Control on a Coupled-Tank System using Nonlinear Plant Model

This paper presents the application of direct model reference adaptive control (DMRAC) on a nonlinear model of coupled-tank liquid level control system through simulation. The coupled-tank liquid level control system is regarded as the relevant plant to emulate the process control in petrol and chemical industries. The processing plants in these industries largely involve in controlling the liq...

Multiclient Identification System Using Adaptive Probabilistic Model

This paper aims at integrating detection and identification of human faces in a more practical and real-time face recognition system. The proposed face detection system is based on the cascade Adaboost method to improve the precision and robustness toward unstable surrounding lightings. Our Adaboost method innovates to adjust the environmental lighting conditions by histogram lighting normaliza...
