Accounts of using the Tustin-Net architecture on a rotary inverted pendulum
In this report we investigate the use of the Tustin neural network architecture (Tustin-Net) for the identification of a physical rotary inverse pendulum. This physics-based architecture is of particular interest as it builds on the known relationship between velocities and positions. We here aim at discussing the advantages, limitations and performance of Tustin-Nets compared to first-principles grey-box models on a real physical apparatus, showing how, with a standard training procedure, the former can hardly achieve the same accuracy as the latter. To address this limitation, we present a training strategy based on transfer learning that yields Tustin-Nets that are competitive with the first-principles model, without requiring extensive knowledge of the setup as the latter.

Tustin neural networks: a class of recurrent nets for adaptive MPC of mechanical systems
The use of recurrent neural networks to represent the dynamics of unstable systems is difficult due to the need to properly initialize their internal states, which in most of the cases do not have any physical meaning, c…

This paper presents the control and stabilization of the rotary inverted pendulum based on a general controller scheme. The proposed scheme has its foundation in classical control theory, and the importance of an integra…
Enhancement of Energy-Based Swing-Up Controller via Entropy Search
An energy based approach for stabilizing a mechanical system has offered a simple yet powerful control scheme. However, since it does not impose such strong constraints on parameter space of the controller, finding appro…

Linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control is a well-established method for optimal control through state estimation, particularly in stabilizing an inverted pendulum on a cart. In standard laboratory setups, sensor redunda…
