TL;DR
A robust neural-network (NN) controller is proposed for the motion control of rigid-link electrically driven (RLED) robots that can be regarded as a universal reusable controller because the same controller can be applied to any type of RLED robots without any modifications.
Abstract
A robust neural-network (NN) controller is proposed for the motion control of rigid-link electrically driven (RLED) robots. Two-layer NN's are used to approximate two very complicated nonlinear functions. The main advantage of our approach is that the NN weights are tuned on-line, with no off-line learning phase required. Most importantly, we can guarantee the uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) stability of tracking errors and NN weights. When compared with standard adaptive robot controllers, we do not require lengthy and tedious preliminary analysis to determine a regression matrix. The controller can be regarded as a universal reusable controller because the same controller can be applied to any type of RLED robots without any modifications.

Experimental results demonstrate that the adaptive controller enjoys essentially the same level of robustness to unmodeled dynamics as a PD (proportional and differential) controller, yet achieves much better tracking accuracy than either PD or computed-torque schemes.

The algorithm is divided into two phases, a dynamical neural network identifier is employed to perform "black box" identification and then a dynamic state feedback is developed to appropriately control the unknown system.

It is shown that standard backpropagation, when used for real time closed-loop control, can yield unbounded NN weights if (1) the net cannot exactly reconstruct a certain required control function, or (2) there are bounded unknown disturbances in the robot dynamics.
