In This Paper, We Investigate Lifelong Learning (LL)-Based Tracking Control for Partially Uncertain Strict Feedback Nonlinear Systems with State Constraints, employing a Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of the Multilayer Neural Networks (MNNs) Activation Function based Weight Tuning Scheme. the Novel SVD-Based Approach Extends the MNN Weight Tuning to (Formula Presented.) Layers. a Unique Online LL Method, based on Tracking Error, is Integrated into the MNN Weight Update Laws to Counteract Catastrophic Forgetting. to Adeptly Address Constraints for Safety Assurances, Taking into Account the Effects Caused by Disturbances, We Utilize a Time-Varying Barrier Lyapunov Function (TBLF) that Ensures a Uniformly Ultimately …

This study provides a lifelong integral reinforcement learning (LIRL)-based optimal tracking scheme for uncertain nonlinear continuous-time (CT) systems using multilayer neural network (MNN). In this LIRL framework, the optimal control policies are generated by using both the critic neural network (NN) weights and single-layer NN identifier. The critic MNN weight tuning is accomplished using an improved singular value decomposition (SVD) of its activation function gradient. The NN identifier, on the other hand, provides the control coefficient matrix for computing the control policies. An online weight velocity attenuation (WVA)-based consolidation scheme is proposed wherein the significance of weights is derived by …
