TL;DR: This article investigates the adaptive fault-tolerant tracking control problem for a class of discrete-time multiagent systems via a reinforcement learning algorithm and proves that all signals of the closed-loop system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded.
Abstract: This article investigates the adaptive fault-tolerant tracking control problem for a class of discrete-time multiagent systems via a reinforcement learning algorithm. The action neural networks (NNs) are used to approximate unknown and desired control input signals, and the critic NNs are employed to estimate the cost function in the design procedure. Furthermore, the direct adaptive optimal controllers are designed by combining the backstepping technique with the reinforcement learning algorithm. Comparing the existing reinforcement learning algorithm, the computational burden can be effectively reduced by using the method of less learning parameters. The adaptive auxiliary signals are established to compensate for the influence of the dead zones and actuator faults on the control performance. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved that all signals of the closed-loop system are semiglobally uniformly ultimately bounded. Finally, some simulation results are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, an integral sliding mode controller (ISMC) for a general type of underwater robots based on multiple-input and multiple-output extended-state-observer (MIMO-ESO) was developed.
Abstract: This paper develops a novel integral sliding mode controller (ISMC) for a general type of underwater robots based on multiple-input and multiple-output extended-state-observer (MIMO-ESO). The difficulties associated with the unmeasured velocities, unknown disturbances, and uncertain hydrodynamics of the robot have been successfully solved in the control design. An adaptive MIMO-ESO is designed not only to estimate the unmeasurable linear and angular velocities, but also to estimate the unknown external disturbances. An ISMC is then designed using Lyapunov synthesis, and an adaptive gain update algorithm is introduced to estimate the upper bound of the uncertainties. Rigorous theoretical analysis is performed to show that the proposed control method is able to achieve asymptotical tracking performance for the underwater robot. Experimental studies are also carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control, and to show that the proposed approach performs better than a conventional potential difference (PD) control approach.

TL;DR: A robust tracking control scheme is proposed for wheeled mobile robots with skidding, slipping, and input disturbance by considering the prescribed tracking performance requirement and using the disturbance observer.
Abstract: In this paper, a robust tracking control scheme is proposed for wheeled mobile robots with skidding, slipping, and input disturbance. Considering the existing skidding and slipping, a desired disturbance-observer-based virtual velocity control law is first designed. Then, the robust tracking control scheme is developed by considering the prescribed tracking performance requirement and using the disturbance observer. In the tracking control scheme design, the prescribed performance function method is employed to guarantee the desired tracking performance. To handle the skidding, slipping, and input disturbance, the disturbance observer is developed in the control scheme design. Experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed tracking control scheme for wheeled mobile robots with skidding, slipping, and input disturbance.

TL;DR: In this paper, a robust attitude control with neural network approximation and backstepping technique is proposed for a helicopter with actuator dynamics, considering unknown moment coefficients and the mass of the helicopter.
Abstract: In this study, attitude control is proposed for helicopters with actuator dynamics. For the nominal helicopter dynamics, model-based control is firstly presented to keep the desired helicopter attitude. To handle the model uncertainty and the external disturbance, radial basis function neural networks are adopted in the attitude control design. Using neural network approximation and the backstepping technique, robust attitude control is proposed with full state feedback. Considering unknown moment coefficients and the mass of helicopters, approximation-based attitude control is developed for the helicopter dynamics. In all proposed attitude control techniques, multi-input and multi-output non-linear dynamics are considered and the stability of the closed-loop system is proved via rigorous Lyapunov analysis. Extensive numerical simulation studies are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed attitude control.

TL;DR: This paper constructs an Underwater Image Enhancement Benchmark (UIEB) including 950 real-world underwater images, 890 of which have the corresponding reference images and proposes an underwater image enhancement network (called Water-Net) trained on this benchmark as a baseline, which indicates the generalization of the proposed UIEB for training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs).
Abstract: Underwater image enhancement has been attracting much attention due to its significance in marine engineering and aquatic robotics. Numerous underwater image enhancement algorithms have been proposed in the last few years. However, these algorithms are mainly evaluated using either synthetic datasets or few selected real-world images. It is thus unclear how these algorithms would perform on images acquired in the wild and how we could gauge the progress in the field. To bridge this gap, we present the first comprehensive perceptual study and analysis of underwater image enhancement using large-scale real-world images. In this paper, we construct an Underwater Image Enhancement Benchmark (UIEB) including 950 real-world underwater images, 890 of which have the corresponding reference images. We treat the rest 60 underwater images which cannot obtain satisfactory reference images as challenging data. Using this dataset, we conduct a comprehensive study of the state-of-the-art underwater image enhancement algorithms qualitatively and quantitatively. In addition, we propose an underwater image enhancement network (called Water-Net) trained on this benchmark as a baseline, which indicates the generalization of the proposed UIEB for training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). The benchmark evaluations and the proposed Water-Net demonstrate the performance and limitations of state-of-the-art algorithms, which shed light on future research in underwater image enhancement.

TL;DR: In this article, an adaptive impedance controller for a robotic manipulator with input saturation was developed by employing neural networks. But the adaptive impedance control was not considered in the tracking control design, and the input saturation is handled by designing an auxiliary system.
Abstract: In this paper, adaptive impedance control is developed for an ${n}$ -link robotic manipulator with input saturation by employing neural networks. Both uncertainties and input saturation are considered in the tracking control design. In order to approximate the system uncertainties, we introduce a radial basis function neural network controller, and the input saturation is handled by designing an auxiliary system. By using Lyapunov’s method, we design adaptive neural impedance controllers. Both state and output feedbacks are constructed. To verify the proposed control, extensive simulations are conducted.
