The main objective of this paper is to demonstrate that fractional order operators
(differentiator/integrator) can increased the robustness of an intelligent controller. In this …

In this work, a novel model predictive control (MPC) scheme is introduced, by integrating
direct and indirect neural control methodologies. The proposed approach makes use of a …
