Abstract
A novel technique, directly using artificial neural networks, is proposed for the adaptive control of nonlinear systems. The ability of neural networks to model arbitrary nonlinear functions and their inverses is exploited. The use of nonlinear function inverses raises questions of the existence of the inverse operators. These are investigated and results are given characterising the invertibility of a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. The control structure used is internal model control. It is used to directly incorporate networks modelling the plant and its inverse within the control strategy. The potential of the proposed method is demonstrated by an example.

Partitioned model-based IMC design using JITL modeling technique

TL;DR: It is shown that PM-IMC using the database-updating JITL is more desirable owing to the relative ease in collecting the process data required to construct its initial database, while achieving comparable control performance as that obtained by PM- IMC using a just-in-time learning method with fixed-database.

Learning a Nonlinear Controller From Data: Theory, Computation, and Experimental Results

TL;DR: The problem of learning a nonlinear controller directly from experimental data is considered and a theoretical analysis shows that the error between the input issued by the existing controller and the input given by the learned one shall have low variability in order to achieve closed loop stability.

Nonlinear internal model controller design for wastegate control of a turbocharged gasoline engine

TL;DR: A fourth-order nonlinear model which sufficiently describes the dynamic behavior of the turbocharged engine is implemented to serve as the model in the IMC structure and the controller based on structured quasi-LPV model inverse is designed to achieve boost pressure tracking.
