A Predefined-Time Convergent and Noise-Tolerant Zeroing Neural Network Model for Time Variant Quadratic Programming With Application to Robot Motion Planning
Abstract
This paper develops a predefined-time convergent and noise-tolerant fractional-order zeroing neural network (PTC-NT-FOZNN) model, innovatively engineered to tackle time-variant quadratic programming (TVQP) challenges. The PTC-NT-FOZNN, stemming from a novel iteration within the variable-gain ZNN spectrum, known as FOZNNs, features diminishing gains over time and marries noise resistance with predefined-time convergence, making it ideal for energy-efficient robotic motion planning tasks. The PTC-NT-FOZNN enhances traditional ZNN models by incorporating a newly developed activation function that promotes optimal convergence irrespective of the model's order. When evaluated against six established ZNNs, the PTC-NT-FOZNN, with parameters 0 < α ≤ 1, demonstrates enhanced positional precision and resilience to additive noises, making it exceptionally suitable for TVQP tasks. Thorough practical assessments, including simulations and experiments using a Flexiv Rizon robotic arm, confirm the PTC-NT-FOZNN's capabilities in achieving precise tracking and high computational efficiency, thereby proving its effectiveness for robust kinematic control applications.
