Control of chaotic systems using targeting by extended control regions method

摘要

In this work, the previously proposed extended control regions (ECR) algorithm for targeting is improved by using individual neural networks for each activation region. The improved version, which exploits the short time predictability of the chaotic system more efficiently, gives better performance with respect to training time and average reaching time while maintaining the advantages of the previous method. Moreover, the simulation results revealed that the meaningful number of activation regions of the controller using improved ECR is nearly linearly related with the prediction horizon of the chaotic system to be targeted, which can be used as a criterion for choosing the number of activation region.
