Self tuning function has become a standard function of distributed control systems.
Moreover, distributed tuning function is designed to minimize the order of the parameter updater.
We propose a variable structure (VS) based adaptive control with tuning function design to achieve better results than the MRAC approach.
To make a fair comparison with the overparametrization and tuning function methods, a second-order nonlinear engine cooling system is taken as a benchmark problem.
In contrast to conventional adaptive backstepping procedure, both the parameter updating law and tuning function of the proposed scheme take advantage of information flow among networked agents and thus distributive in nature.
A tuning function describes the relative sensitivity of a neuron to variations along a particular stimulus dimension (e.g., orientation, frequency).
If you have an annoying voice (as I do, for example), you can just use the Tereshiba's voice tuning function.
In this study, a building wall with a thermal tuning function is further investigated.
In the second example the tuning function design and the overparameterised adaptive backstepping design are compared.
Meanwhile, in order to avoid the over-parameters, a tuning function technique is utilized.
With the same tuning function, the simplified MA algorithm reduces the complexity compared with the original one.
