PD Control with Neural Compensation

Abstract

In this chapter, we use a neural network to estimate the nonlinear terms of the exoskeleton robots, such as friction, gravity forces, and unmodeled dynamics, to guarantee stability of the closed-loop system with simple PD control law. This approach reduces the computation time with a simple neural network (NN). The learning rules obtained for the NN are very closed to the backpropagation rules [64]. This NN does not need offline previous learning, and the initial parameters are independent of the robot dynamics.

The other part of the chapter uses a modified algorithm to overcome the two drawbacks of PD control at the same time. First, the high-gain observer is joined with the normal ...
