A real-time Deep Neural Network (DNN) adaptive control architecture is developed for general uncertain nonlinear dynamical systems to track a desired time-varying trajectory. Lyapunov-based method leveraged develop adaptation laws the output-layer weights of DNN model in while data-driven supervised learning algorithm used update inner-layer DNN. Specifically, are estimated using an unsupervised provide responsiveness and guaranteed tracking performance with feedback. The trained collected...

We propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) methodology for the tracking, obstacle avoidance, and formation control of nonholonomic robots. By separating vision-based into perception module controller module, we can train DRL agent without sophisticated physics or 3D modeling.

This work explores the distributed state estimation problem for an uncertain, nonlinear, and continuous-time system. Given a sensor network, each agent is assigned deep neural network (DNN) that used to approximate system's dynamics. Each updates weights of their DNN through multiple timescale approach, i.e., outer layer are updated online with Lyapunov-based gradient descent update law, inner concurrently using supervised learning strategy. To promote efficient use resources, observer uses...

Data-based, exponentially converging observers are developed for a network of stationary cooperative cameras estimating the Euclidean distance to features on moving object (and hence, objects' accurately scaled structure), without requiring typical positive depth constraint and only remain in one camera's field-of-view.
