Data-efficient Control of Two-link Robot Manipulator Using Event-triggered Neural Networks
摘要
This paper proposes an event-triggered identification and control strategy for a class of nonlinear dynamical systems. We leverage online trained feedforward neural networks to approximate the plant dynamics. To improve efficiency, the network updates and control actions are triggered only when necessary based on the error evolution. This approach significantly reduces computational demands by utilising a small fraction of available data points. In addition, we demonstrate that this technique is far superior to traditional controllers like PD and PID in terms of the number of samples required with comparable identification and control performance when applied to a two-link robot manipulator.
