This paper investigates the problem of neural adaptive prescribed performance coordinated tracking control for dual-arm robots, subject to completely unknown robot and object dynamics. By using a fixed-time prescribed performance function and a shifting function, it ensures the quantifiable adjustment of overshoot, peak value, settling time, and accuracy, and guarantees the natural satisfaction of initial conditions. The unknown dynamics of the robot and object are approximated and compensated using a neural network. The stability of the dual-arm robots system and the boundedness of all internal signals are ensured by the Lyapunov method.

To further alleviate the transmission burden on the communication network, dynamic event-triggering rules are proposed. Considering the impact of both deception attacks and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on the discussed discrete-time MJSPSs, a novel hybrid cyber attacks model is initially constructed to consolidate these two types of attacks. An asynchronous controller is well constructed considering the mode information of Markov chain is exceedingly hard to obtain. Consequently, a hidden Markov model (HMM) is proposed to formulate the asynchronous situation between modes of the original Markov chain and the constructed asynchronous controller. By constructing the Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional concerning the singular perturbation parameter (SPP), sufficient criteria of achieving stochastic stability with a specific dissipative performance for the closed-loop MJSPSs are secured. Subsequently, the design methodology of non-synchronous controller and the dynamic event-triggering rules are furnished in a systematical way.

While several studies have adopted this formulation to address system constraints in <em>generic</em> dynamic models, we demonstrate that the existing theoretical framework requires a critical, previously unstated assumption: the boundedness of the commanded control signal. This revelation has significant implications for the method’s practical applicability. Thus, it is shown that a well-known alternative to this method, i.e., the Modified Tracking Error (MTE), which necessitates the same theoretical assumptions as that of the Nussbaum function method to tackle input constraints, can be a more effective and simpler option to deal with this issue, particularly in the case of uncertain dynamic systems. We extend this analysis to systems with dead-zone nonlinearities, where the MTE method demonstrates superior performance due to its inherent compensation mechanism through the auxiliary state variable. Through extensive comparisons between these control schemes, we illustrate the limitations and capabilities of each method in the case of constrained dynamic systems. The results highlight that despite being more complicated, the Nussbaum function method does not provide advantages over the MTE approach, while the latter enables effective identification of model uncertainties even in the presence of input constraints and dead-zone nonlinearities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17283,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Franklin Institute-engineering and Applied Mathematics","volume":"362 7","pages":"Article 107655"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143760937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, reconstructing hyperspectral images from their measurement scenes is an ill-posed and challenging problem. By applying deep learning methods to solve this ill-posed issue, it becomes possible to reconstruct high-quality hyperspectral images from measurement images in real time. However, mainstream models typically use an encoder–decoder structure, connecting the output of the encoder and the input of decoder only along the channels. This limits the ability of network to learn detailed image information. In addition, since the planar image sensor array causes varying wavelengths to experience different optical path differences after dispersion, the actual mask cannot be derived solely from a single known mask through different dispersion steps. To address these issues, this paper proposes a deep unfolding method called the channel-wise mask learning based mixing Transformer network (CML-MT). We design a denoising model based on window attention and a dual block, using the dual block as the decoder to fully utilize information from the encoder layers. Additionally, we introduce a channel-wise degradation mask learning module that implicitly learns to approximate the latent real mask under the constraint of multi-stage reprojection loss.
