Distributed nonlinear model predictive control of an autonomous tractor-trailer system
Erkan Kayacan, Erdal Kayacan, Herman Ramon +1
This paper addresses the trajectory tracking problem of an autonomous tractor-trailer system by using a fast distributed nonlinear model predictive control algorithm in combination…
Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Control of a Spherical Rolling Robot Using Sliding-Mode-Control-Theory-Based Online Learning Algorithm
Erkan Kayacan, Erdal Kayacan, Herman Ramon +1
As a model is only an abstraction of the real system, unmodeled dynamics, parameter variations, and disturbances can result in poor performance of a conventional controller based o…
Towards agrobots: Identification of the yaw dynamics and trajectory tracking of an autonomous tractor
Erkan Kayacan, Erdal Kayacan, Herman Ramon +1
More efficient agricultural machinery is needed as agricultural areas become more limited and energy and labor costs increase. To increase their efficiency, trajectory tracking pro…
Towards Agrobots: Trajectory Control of an Autonomous Tractor Using Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Controllers
Erdal Kayacan, Erkan Kayacan, Herman Ramon +2
Provision of some autonomous functions to an agricultural vehicle would lighten the job of the operator but in doing so, the accuracy should not be lost to still obtain an optimal…
Identification of Nonlinear Dynamic Systems Using Type-2 Fuzzy Neural Networks -- A Novel Learning Algorithm and a Comparative Study
Erkan Kayacan, Erdal Kayacan, Mojtaba Ahmadieh Khanesar
In order to achieve faster and more robust convergence (especially under noisy working environments), a sliding mode theory-based learning algorithm has been proposed to tune both…
Robust Trajectory Tracking Error Model-Based Predictive Control for Unmanned Ground Vehicles
Erkan Kayacan, Herman Ramon, Wouter Saeys
This paper proposes a new robust trajectory tracking error-based control approach for unmanned ground vehicles. A trajectory tracking error-based model is used to design a linear m…
