A Feedback-Assisted Inverse Neural Network Controller for Cart-Mounted Inverted Pendulum by ManMahendra Singh Daksh, Puneet Mishra

“…Further, a significant number of existing works in this domain employ randomized or suboptimal initial NN weights, which can potentially hamper the transient performance of the control loop. To address these issues, this paper proposes an innovative control scheme that utilizes the strength of indirect adaptive control of NN, along with the robustness of the PID controller. …”
