Fuzzy control has long been applied to industry with several important theoretical results
and successful results. Originally introduced as model-free control design approach, model …

This paper presents a new framework for the symbolic representation of data which is
referred to as signatures. The definitions of signatures and of signature trees are first given …

This paper suggests low-cost fuzzy control solutions that ensure the improvement of control
system (CS) performance indices by merging the benefits of fuzzy control and iterative …

The paper presents some main aspects regarding multi-parametric quadratic programming
(mp-QP) problems. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is considered as a particular mp-QP …

This paper presents a new stability analysis method dedicated to a class of fuzzy control
systems (FCSs) controlling multi input-multi output (MIMO) nonlinear processes by means of …

Human space exploration is continuously advancing despite the current financial difficulties,
and the new missions are targeting the Moon and the Mars with more effective human–robot …

This paper proposes a novel Adaptive Charged System Search (ACSS) algorithm for the
optimal tuning of Takagi–Sugeno proportional–integral fuzzy controllers (T–S PI-FCs). The …

This paper proposes the design of fuzzy control systems with a reduced parametric
sensitivity making use of Gravitational Search Algorithms (GSAs). The parametric variations …

The paper presents aspects concerning two iterative methods in control design: the Iterative
Feedback Tuning (IFT) and the Iterative Learning Control (ILC) approaches. The IFT is …

This paper presents a new stability analysis method for nonlinear processes with Takagi-
Sugeno (TS) fuzzy logic controllers (FLCs). The design of the FLCs is based on heuristic …
