Abstract

Abstract : A comparative study between static and dynamic neural networks for robotic systems control is considered. So, two approaches of neural robot control were selected, exposed, and compared. One uses a static neural network; the other uses a dynamic neural network. Both compensate the nonlinear modeling and uncertainties of robotic systems. The first approach is direct; it approximates the nonlinearities and uncertainties by a static neural network. The second approach is indirect; it uses a dynamic neural network for the identification of the robot state. The neural network weight tuning algorithms, for the two approaches, are developed based on Lyapunov theory. Simulation results show that the system response, equipped by dynamic neural network controller, has better tracking performance, has faster response time, and is more reliable to face disturbances and robotic uncertainties.
