In the field of control systems it is common to use techniques based on model adaptation to carry out control for plants for which mathematical analysis may be intricate. Increasing interest in biologically inspired learning algorithms for control techniques such as Artificial Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems is in progress. In this line, this paper gives a perspective on the quality of results given by two different biologically connected learning algorithms for the design of B-spline neural networks (BNN) and fuzzy systems (FS). One approach used is the Genetic Programming (GP) for BNN design and the other is the Bacterial Evolutionary Algorithm (BEA) applied for fuzzy rule extraction. Also, the facility to incorporate a multi-objective approach to the GP algorithm is outlined, enabling the designer to obtain models more adequate for their intended use.

The design phase of B-spline neural networks is a highly computationally complex task. Existent heuristics have been found to be highly dependent on the initial conditions employed. Increasing interest in biologically inspired learning algorithms for control techniques such as Artificial Neural Networks and Fuzzy Systems is in progress. In this paper, the Bacterial Programming approach is presented, which is based on the replication of the microbial evolution phenomenon. This technique produces an efficient topology search, obtaining additionally more consistent solutions.

Current and past research has brought up new views related to the optimization of neural networks. For a fixed structure, second order methods are seen as the most promising. From previous works we have shown how second order methods are of easy applicability to a neural network. Namely, we have proved how the Levenberg-Marquard possesses not only better convergence but how it can assure the convergence to a local minima. However, as any gradient-based method, the results obtained depend on the startup point. In this work, a reformulated Evolutionary algorithm - the Bacterial Programming for Levenberg-Marquardt is proposed, as an heuristic which can be used to determine the most suitable starting points, therefore achieving, in most cases, the global optimum.

The design phase of B-spline neural networks represents a very high computational task. For this purpose, heuristics have been developed, but have been shown to be dependent on the initial conditions employed. In this paper a new technique, Bacterial Programming, is proposed, whose principles are based on the replication of the microbial evolution phenomenon. The performance of this approach is illustrated and compared with existing alternatives.

The aim of this chapter is to introduce background concepts in nonlinear systems identification and control with artificial neural networks. As this chapter is just an overview, with a limited page space, only the basic ideas will be explained here. The reader is encouraged, for a more detailed explanation of a specific topic of interest, to consult the references given throughout the text. Additionally, as general books in the field of neural networks, the books by Haykin [1] and Principe et al. [2] are suggested. Regarding nonlinear systems identification, covering both classical and neural and neuro-fuzzy methodologies, Reference 3 is recommended. References 4 and 5 should be used in the context of B-spline networks.

Complete supervised training algorithms for B-spline neural networks and fuzzy rule-based systems are discussed. By interducing the relationship between B-spline neural networks and certain types of fuzzy models, training algorithms developed initially for neural networks can be adapted by fuzzy systems.

The problem with the adequacy of radial basis function neural networks to model the inside air temperature as a function of the outside air temperature and solar radiation, and the inside relative humidity in an hydroponic greenhouse is addressed.

Despite the developments in more sophisticated controllers, still the Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) controller is by far the controller most widely used in industry automation.

This paper describes previous works (1), (2), on neural network pid autotuning. Basically, neural networks are employed to supply PID parameters, according to the ITAE criterion, to a standard PID controller.

The Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) controllers are standard building blocks for industrial automation. Their popularity comes from their rebust performance and also from their functional simplicity.
Resumo:
A scheme of automatically tuning the existing industrial PID controllers using neural networks is proposed. The scheme estimates the process critical data on-line in proportional control mode.

One of the basic aspects of some neural networks is their attempt to approximate as much as possible their biological counterparts. The goal is to achieve a simple and robust network, easy to understand and able of simulating the human brain at a computational level. Recently a third generation of neural networks (NN) [1], called Spiking Neural Networks(SNN) was appeared. This new kind of networks use the time of a electrical pulse, or spike, to encode the information. In the first and second generation of NN analog values are used in the communication between neurons.

In this study, Artificial Neural Networks are applied to multistep long term solar radiation prediction. The networks are trained as one-step-ahead predictors and iterated over time to obtain multi-step longer term predictions. Auto-regressive and Auto-regressive with exogenous inputs solar radiationmodels are compared, considering cloudiness indices as inputs in the latter case. These indices are obtained through pixel classification of ground-to-sky images. The input-output structure of the neural network models is selected using evolutionary computation methods.

The application of the Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Network (NN) to greenhouse inside air temperature modelling has been previously investigated (Ferreira et al., 2000a). In those studies, the inside air temperature is modelled as a function of the inside relative humidity and of the outside temperature and solar radiation. A second-order model structure previously selected (Cunha et al., 1996) in the context of dynamic temperature models identification, is used.
