Accelerating multi-objective control system design using a neuro-genetic approach

摘要

Designing control systems usingmultiobjective genetic algorithms can lead to a substatial computational load as a result of the repeated evaluation of the multiple objectives and the population-based nature of the search. Here, a neural network approach, based on radial basis functions, is introduced to alleviate this problem by providing computationally inexpensive estimates of objective values during the search. A straightforward example demonstrates the utility of the approach. Copyright ~direct 2000 IFAC
