Research on Improved Intelligent Control Processes Based on Three Kinds of Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

Autotuning and online tuning of control parameters in control processes (OTP) are widely used in practice, such as in chemical production and industrial control processes. Better performance (such as dynamic speed and steady-state error) and less repeated manual-tuning workloads in bad environments for engineers are expected. The main works are as follows: Firstly, a change ratio for expert system and fuzzy-reasoning-based OTP methods is proposed. Secondly, a wavelet neural-network-based OTP method is proposed. Thirdly, comparative simulations are implemented in order to verify the performance. Finally, the stability of the proposed methods is analyzed based on the theory of stability. Results and effects are as follows: Firstly, the proposed control parameters of online tuning methods of artificial-intelligence-based classical control (AI-CC) systems had better performance, such as faster speed and smaller error. Secondly, stability was verified theoretically, so the proposed method could be applied with a guarantee. Thirdly, a lot of repeated and unsafe manual-based tuning work for engineers can be replaced by AI-CC systems. Finally, an upgrade solution AI-CC, with low cost, is provided for a large number of existing classical control systems.
