Adaptive control feedback

4 In most applications, the genetic algorithm is implemented as follows. An indi- , Vidual (i.e., a single pulse sequence) is coded for by a gene, which is a bit string of 

Although in principle a genetic algorithm, or other learning algorithm, shoutd f find the true optimum, the search is limited, either by computer limitations in th i case of numerical studies, or by experimental restrictions in the case of laboratory ir experiments. ij] 

Finally, note that Herek and co-workers [474] have demonstrated that it isippf ble to control the internal conversion channel in a light-harvesting antenna ccaftp of a photosynthetic purple bacterium. This implies the ability to control dynaipife a large complex system, as anticipated theoretically (see, e.g., Ref [181]).

Judson and Rabitz [60] have provided a numerical demonstration of an existence theorem for feedback control in the guiding of the evolution of the state of a system. The example they consider is the transfer of 100% of the population from the vibrationless ground rotational state of KC1 to the vibrationless state with j = 3, m = 0, by a suitable field. The novel idea they exploit is to use the population transfer generated by a trial field as input to an adaptive learning algorithm for comparison with the desired popula-... 

The architecture of the self-tuning regulator is shown in Fig. 7.99. It is similar to that of the Model Reference Adaptive Controller in that it also consists basically of two loops. The inner loop contains the process and a normal linear feedback controller. The outer loop is used to adjust the parameters of the feedback controller and comprises a recursive parameter estimator and an adjustment mechanism. 

The model reduction procedure must be adapted to the use of the simplified models and to the availability of experimental data needed to evaluate the unknown parameters, as discussed in Chap. 3. In general, more complex models are used for the design of the reactor and for the simulation of the entire process, whereas more simplified models are best fit for feedback control. In the following chapters it is shown that fairly accurate results are obtained when a strongly simplified kinetic model is used for control and fault diagnosis purposes. 

In order to tackle the problem of uncertainties in the available model, nonlinear robust and adaptive strategies have been developed, while, in the absence of full state measurements, output-feedback control schemes can be adopted, where the unmeasurable state variables can be estimated by resorting to state observers. The development of model-based nonlinear strategies has been fostered by the development of efficient experimental identification methods for nonlinear models and by significantly improved capabilities of computer-control hardware and software.
