Abstract

Nowadays, a good control system must meet some complex requirements. Two important ones are: quick and accurate responses to sudden changes in systems. This paper presents a control strategy for Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) that can do so. The proposed SOM-based control has a multiple-module architecture and learns from feedback on errors which enables it to generate appropriate controllers. Simulations of the mass-spring-damper system and the inverted pendulum validated the model. In the experiments, the systems had time-varying parameters. The results from the method proposed were compared with conventional methods and previous self-organizing control and suggest that the proposed control is suitable for controlling linear and nonlinear systems which undergo sudden changes.
