Genetic Programming Algorithm for Designing of Control Systems

Abstract

,andrzej.przybyl}@iisi.pcz.pl Genetic programming algorithms and other population-based methods are a convenient tool for solving complex interdisciplinary problems. Their characteristic feature is that they flexibly adapt to the problem and expectations of a designer. In this paper, they are used for designing complex control systems. In particular, a new approach for automatic designing of PID-based controllers which are resistant to noises in the measuring path is proposed. It is based on the knowledge about an object model and capabilities of the genetic algorithm and genetic programming. Not only do these make it possible to tune parameters and select the structure of PID-based controllers, but they also tune parameters of some additional components of a complex controller structure, like parameters of finite impulse response (FIR) filters. The idea of the proposed approach relies on proper encoding of the controller and a dedicated way of evolutionary processing of encoded solutions. The approach proposed in this paper has been tested using a typical control problem, i.e. a DC motor control problem.

A New Approach to Detecting and Preventing Populations Stagnation Through Dynamic Changes in Multi-Population-Based Algorithms

“…It is worth noting that in the case of the above equation, if ff bst i (iter − st p) − ff bst i (iter) = 0, the result should be equal to zero, and if iter < st p, the default value of the improvement γ should be used. To immunize the above improvement factor to small and large fluctuations in the improvement of the evaluation function, an infinite impulse response filter was used (see [10]). In this case, the general formula for proposed stagnation detection for single population is defined as follows:…”

Genetic Programming Guidance Control System for a Reentry Vehicle under Uncertainties

“…In [24] an adapted GP approach is used to generate the control law for a UAV which provides recovery onto a ship considering real world disturbances and uncertainties. Other control approaches involving GP are represented by [25] where GP is used to generate a control Lyapunov function and the modes of a switched state feedback controller; while in [26] GP is used to generate a PID based controller. All these approaches involving GP for control applications cannot be considered IC.…”
