Abstract
This paper presents a method of simple adaptive control for nonlinear systems using neural networks. The control input is given by the sum of the output of the simple adaptive controller and the output of the neural network. The neural network is used to compensate the nonlinearity of plant dynamics that is not taken into consideration in the usual simple adaptive control. The role of the neural network is to construct a linearized model by minimizing the output error caused by nonlinearities in the control systems.
