Asymptotic stability of a set of matrices requires that all infinite products of matrices from that set tend to zero. Asymptotic stabilizability of a set of matrices, however, requires that there is at least one such sequence in the set. The upper and lower spectral radius of a set are defined to aid in the analysis. Necessary and sufficient conditions for asymptotic stability and stabilizability are provided leading to some methods using Lyapunov theory. Finally hybrid system stability is considered when the continuous state part of the hybrid system is modeled as a linear discrete time system. It is shown that the concept of stability of matrix sets may be helpful in analysis and control design of such hybrid systems.","PeriodicalId":219623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127897923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This scheme combines centralized and decentralized control strategies. A server-client model is used to implement this scheme where the server is a process that caries out the commands to be executed, and each client is a process with a certain task. The clients are running in parallel issuing commands to the server which selects the command to be executed based on a predefined priority scheme. In this scheme, a collision avoidance client is running all the time with the highest priority. This improves the performance of the other clients since it removes the burden of avoiding obstacles and allows each client to concentrate on performing its task. The logical sensor approach is used to model the sensory system which provides different levels of data representation with tolerance measures and analysis. The simulation results of this model are presented with a brief discussion and conclusion on these results.","PeriodicalId":219623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130746330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this method, algebraic equations of motion characterize the system dynamics. The algebraic optimal control laws can be derived in an explicit form for general nonlinear time-varying and time-invariant systems by minimizing an algebraic performance measure. The essence of the approach is based on using assumed-time-modes expansions of generalized coordinates and inputs in conjunction with the variational work-energy principles that govern the physical system. However, to implement these control laws an algebraic state estimator must be designed. The development of such an estimator is incorporated by utilizing neural networks within a hybrid algebraic equations of motion for general nonlinear systems. To proof of concept, computer simulations are validated on linear systems under deterministic, noisy and modeling uncertainty cases. As modeling uncertainty is concerned, both parameter uncertainty and model truncation have been considered.","PeriodicalId":219623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134303541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed estimation algorithm consists of two components: a recurrent neural network to model the tool wear dynamics, and a robust observer to estimate the tool wear from this model using measurements of cutting force. It is shown that the algorithm ensures that the tool wear estimation error is uniformly bounded in the presence of bounded unmodeled effects, and that the ultimate bound on this error can be made as small as desired. The proposed approach is applied to the problem of estimating tool wear in turning and is shown to provide wear estimates which are in close agreement with experimental results.","PeriodicalId":219623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123030684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our method is built on the basic idea due to Penna (1991), and it effectively deals with situations where Penna's method would produce inaccurate results. The proposed technique images a sphere orthographically, as a circle on the image plane, and estimates the scale factor from the observed shape (in the digitized image) of that circle. Our motivation to project the sphere orthographically as against perspectively as was done by Penna, is that it does not impose the constraint that the center of the sphere be on the optical axis of the camera. There is an additional advantage in that, the estimation of the scale factor becomes independent of the radial distortion introduced by the lens, which is an additional cause of concern when the circle is obtained by perspective projection.","PeriodicalId":219623,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of Tenth International Symposium on Intelligent Control","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126143092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
