ISBN: 1000519589

This book categorizes the wide area of data-driven model-free controllers, reveals the exact benefits of such controllers, gives the in-depth theory and mathematical proofs behind them, and finally discusses their applications. Each chapter includes a section for presenting the theory and mathematical definitions of one of the above mentioned algorithms. The second section of each chapter is dedicated to the examples and applications of the corresponding control algorithms in practical engineering problems. This book proposes to avoid complex mathematical equations, being generic as it includes several types of data-driven model-free controllers, such as Iterative Feedback Tuning controllers, Model-Free Controllers (intelligent PID controllers), Model-Free Adaptive Controllers, model-free sliding mode controllers, hybrid model‐free and model‐free adaptive‐Virtual Reference Feedback Tuning controllers, hybrid model-free and model-free adaptive fuzzy controllers and cooperative model-free controllers. The book includes the topic of optimal model-free controllers, as well. The optimal tuning of model-free controllers is treated in the chapters that deal with Iterative Feedback Tuning and Virtual Reference Feedback Tuning. Moreover, the extension of some model-free control algorithms to the consensus and formation-tracking problem of multi-agent dynamic systems is provided. This book can be considered as a textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as a professional reference for industrial and academic researchers, attracting the readers from both industry and academia.

This book introduces multi-objective design methods to solve multi-objective optimization problems (MOPs) of linear/nonlinear dynamic systems under intrinsic random fluctuation and external disturbance. The MOPs of multiple targets for systems are all transformed into equivalent linear matrix inequality (LMI)-constrained MOPs. Corresponding reverse-order LMI-constrained multi-objective evolution algorithms are introduced to solve LMI-constrained MOPs using MATLAB®. All proposed design methods are based on rigorous theoretical results, and their applications are focused on more practical engineering design examples. Features: Discusses multi-objective optimization from an engineer’s perspective. Contains the theoretical design methods of multi-objective optimization schemes. Includes a wide spectrum of recent research topics in control design, especially for stochastic mean field diffusion problems. Covers practical applications in each chapter, like missile guidance design, economic and financial systems, power control tracking, minimization design in communication, and so forth. Explores practical multi-objective optimization design examples in control, signal processing, communication, and cyber-financial systems. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in electrical engineering, control design, and optimization.

The Handbook on Computer Learning and Intelligence is a second edition which aims to be a one-stop-shop for the various aspects of the broad research area of computer learning and intelligence. This field of research evolved so much in the last five years that it necessitates this new edition of the earlier Handbook on Computational Intelligence.This two-volume handbook is divided into five parts. Volume 1 covers Explainable AI and Supervised Learning. Volume 2 covers three parts: Deep Learning, Intelligent Control, and Evolutionary Computation. The chapters detail the theory, methodology and applications of computer learning and intelligence, and are authored by some of the leading experts in the respective areas. The fifteen core chapters of the previous edition have been written and significantly refreshed by the same authors. Parts of the handbook have evolved to keep pace with the latest developments in computational intelligence in the areas that span across Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence. The Handbook remains dedicated to applications and engineering-orientated aspects of these areas over abstract theories.Related Link(s)

With the Internet, the proliferation of Big Data, and autonomous systems, mankind has entered into an era of 'digital obesity'. In this century, computational intelligence, such as thinking machines, have been brought forth to process complex human problems in a wide scope of areas — from social sciences, economics and biology, medicine and social networks, to cyber security.The Handbook of Computational Intelligence (in two volumes) prompts readers to look at these problems from a non-traditional angle. It takes a step by step approach, supported by case studies, to explore the issues that have arisen in the process. The Handbook covers many classic paradigms, as well as recent achievements and future promising developments to solve some of these very complex problems. Volume one explores the subjects of fuzzy logic and systems, artificial neural networks, and learning systems. Volume two delves into evolutionary computation, hybrid systems, as well as the applications of computational intelligence in decision making, the process industry, robotics, and autonomous systems.This work is a 'one-stop-shop' for beginners, as well as an inspirational source for more advanced researchers. It is a useful resource for lecturers and learners alike.
