This paper introduces a new modified Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) algorithm for improving the result of basic algorithm. The modified BBO is employed to tune the PID parameters of a nonlinear five-bar linkage robot. This robot manipulator has nonlinear dynamics with coupling effects. Firstly, the manipulator is linearized and decoupled using the feedback linearization technique. The linearized system is controlled with a PID controller. To illustrate the effictivness of the proposed controller, The simulation results are presented and compared with the conventional artificial intelligence algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
