This paper proposes an approach for the minimum time swing upof a rotary inverted pendulum. Our rotary inverted pendulum is supported bya pivot arm. The pivot arm rotates in a horizontal plane by means of a servomotor. The opposite end of the arm is instrumented with a joint whose axisis along the radial direction of the motor. A pendulum is suspended at thejoint. The task is to design a contro...

A proportional integral derivative (PID) controller is the most commonly used controller in controlling industrial loops due to its simple structure, robust nature and easy implementation. Tuning a PID controller is an important task. The conventional methods for tuning a PID controller have certain limitations. These limitations can be taken care by tuning the PID controller using intelligent ...

This study considers an intelligent control system to integrate flexibly its components by using weighted information where the system evaluation is reflected. Such system evaluates the information flowing through the components and converts them by weighting depending on the degree of importance. Integration of components based on the system evaluation enables a system consisting of them to re...

Proportional + Integral + Derivative (PID) controllers are widely used in engineering applications such that more than half of the industrial controllers are PID controllers. There are many methods for tuning the PID parameters in the literature. In this paper an intelligent technique based on eXtended Classifier System (XCS) is presented to tune the PID controller parameters. The PID controlle...

Autonomous vehicles are likely to require sophisticated software controllers to maintain vehicle performance in the presence of vehicle faults. The test and evaluation of complex software controllers is expected to be a challenging task. The goal of this effort is to apply machine learning techniques from the field of artificial intelligence to the general problem of evaluating an intelligent c...

This paper presents the use of different artificial life-based optimization algorithms and cerebellar model articulation controllers (CMACs) in aircraft automatic landing control. The proposed intelligent control system can act as an experienced pilot and guide the aircraft landed safely in wind disturbance condition. Lyapunov theory is applied to obtain adaptive learning rule and stability ana...

This paper proposes an intelligent control approach towards Inverted Pendulum in mechanical engineering. Inverted Pendulum is a well known topic in process control and offering a diverse range of research in the area of the mechanical and control engineering. Fuzzy controller is an intelligent controller based on the model of fuzzy logic i.e. it does not require accurate mathematical modelling ...

Disciple is a shell for developing intelligent agents where an expert teaches the agent how to perform domain-specific tasks in a way that resembles the way the expert would teach an apprentice. This paper discusses the application of Disciple to the development of educational agents that generate test questions for students, together with hints, answers and explanations, and assist in the asse...
