Adaptive Neuron-Like Control of Time-Delay Systems Enhanced with Feedforward and Supervisory Strategies

Tracking control of nonlinear systems with significant delay effects has been the focus of intensive research. In this paper, we propose an effective supervised adaptive control scheme to tackle the problem. The scheme is composed of an adaptive control part of two neuron-like models with delay effe...
