The Autonomous Adaptive Control Method

摘要

The paper considers the main concepts of a methodology for constructing control systems that are based on imitation principles, which is called the autonomous adaptive control method. From properties common to all nerve systems, i.e., from discreteness of construction and method of action, higher intedeterminancy of the initial knowledge, adaptability of the device program component, and also from the necessity to carry out the control and learning in one process, a method of action and construction of the control system is deduced. Specific decisions that allow one to construct practically acting control systems that work with comparatively simple knowledge are proposed. The decisions describe the methods for constructing formal neurons, subsystems of patterns generation and pattern recognition, knowledge bases, decision making, and an emotion apparatus. Examples of practical applications are enumerated.
