Comparison of alternative approaches to neural network PID autotuning

In this paper, a scheme for the automatic tuning of PID controllers on-line, with the assistance of trained neural networks, is proposed. The alternative approaches are presented and compared.

Training multilayer perceptrons for control systems applications - a comparison of different approaches

Multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) (1) are the most common artificial neural networks employed in a large field of applications. In control and signal processing applications, MLPs are mainly used as nonlinear mapping approximators. The most common training algorithm used with MLPs is the error back-propagation (BP) alg. (1).
