Advanced and accurate modelling of a Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicle (FW MAV) and its control is one of the recent research topics related to the field of autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In this work, a four wing Natureinspired (NI) FW MAV is modeled and controlled inspiring by its advanced features like quick flight, vertical take-off and landing, hovering, and fast turn, and enhanced manoeuvrability when contrasted with comparable-sized fixed and rotary wing UAVs. The Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering algorithm is utilized to demonstrate the NIFW MAV model, which has points of interest over first principle based modelling since it does not depend on the system dynamics, rather based on data and can incorporate various uncertainties like sensor error. The same clustering strategy is used to develop an adaptive fuzzy controller. The controller is then utilized to control the altitude of the NIFW MAV, that can adapt with environmental disturbances by tuning the antecedent and consequent parameters of the fuzzy system.

Controlling of a flapping flight is one of the recent research topics related to the field of Flapping Wing Micro Air Vehicle (FW MAV). In this work, an adaptive control system for a four-wing FW MAV is proposed, inspired by its advanced features lik e quick flight, vertical take-off and landing, hovering, and fast turn, and enhanced manoeuvrability. Sliding Mode Control (SMC) theory has been used to develop the adaptation laws for the proposed adaptive fuzzy controller. The SMC theory confirms the closed-loop stability of the controller. The controller is utilized to control the altitude of the FW MAV, that can adapt to environmental disturbances by tuning the antecedent and consequent parameters of the fuzzy system.
We investigate the effect of wing twist flexibility on lift and efficiency of a flapping-wing micro air vehicle capable of liftoff. Wings used previously were chosen to be fully rigid due to modeling and fabrication constraints. However, biological w ings are highly flexible and other micro air vehicles have successfully utilized flexible wing structures for specialized tasks. The goal of our study is to determine if dynamic twisting of flexible wings can increase overall aerodynamic lift and efficiency. A flexible twisting wing design was found to increase aerodynamic efficiency by 41.3%, translational lift production by 35.3%, and the effective lift coefficient by 63.7% compared to the rigid-wing design. These results exceed the predictions of quasi-steady blade element models, indicating the need for unsteady computational fluid dynamics simulations of twisted flapping wings.
The flapping-wing aerial vehicle (FWAV) is a new type of flying robot that mimics the flight mode of birds and insects. However, FWAVs have their special characteristics of less load capacity and short endurance time, so that most existing systems of ground target localization are not suitable for them. In this paper, a vision-based target localization algorithm is proposed for FWAVs based on a generic camera model. Since sensors exist measurement error and the camera exists jitter and motion blur during flight, Gaussian noises are introduced in the simulation experiment, and then a first-order low-pass filter is used to stabilize the localization values. Moreover, in order to verify the feasibility and accuracy of the target localization algorithm, we design a set of simulation experiments where various noises are added. From the simulation results, it is found that the target localization algorithm has a good performance.
There exists an increasing demand for a flexible and computationally efficient controller for micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) due to a high degree of environmental perturbations. In this work, an evolving neuro-fuzzy controller, namely Parsimonious Cont roller (PAC) is proposed. It features fewer network parameters than conventional approaches due to the absence of rule premise parameters. PAC is built upon a recently developed evolving neuro-fuzzy system known as parsimonious learning machine (PALM) and adopts new rule growing and pruning modules derived from the approximation of bias and variance. These rule adaptation methods have no reliance on user-defined thresholds, thereby increasing the PACs autonomy for real-time deployment. PAC adapts the consequent parameters with the sliding mode control (SMC) theory in the single-pass fashion. The boundedness and convergence of the closed-loop control systems tracking error and the controllers consequent parameters are confirmed by utilizing the LaSalle-Yoshizawa theorem. Lastly, the controllers efficacy is evaluated by observing various trajectory tracking performance from a bio-inspired flapping-wing micro aerial vehicle (BI-FWMAV) and a rotary wing micro aerial vehicle called hexacopter. Furthermore, it is compared to three distinctive controllers. Our PAC outperforms the linear PID controller and feed-forward neural network (FFNN) based nonlinear adaptive controller. Compared to its predecessor, G-controller, the tracking accuracy is comparable, but the PAC incurs significantly fewer parameters to attain similar or better performance than the G-controller.
Due to its inferior characteristics, an observed (noisy) images direct use gives rise to poor segmentation results. Intuitively, using its noise-free image can favorably impact image segmentation. Hence, the accurate estimation of the residual betwee n observed and noise-free images is an important task. To do so, we elaborate on residual-driven Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) for image segmentation, which is the first approach that realizes accurate residual estimation and leads noise-free image to participate in clustering. We propose a residual-driven FCM framework by integrating into FCM a residual-related fidelity term derived from the distribution of different types of noise. Built on this framework, we present a weighted $ell_{2}$-norm fidelity term by weighting mixed noise distribution, thus resulting in a universal residual-driven FCM algorithm in presence of mixed or unknown noise. Besides, with the constraint of spatial information, the residual estimation becomes more reliable than that only considering an observed image itself. Supporting experiments on synthetic, medical, and real-world images are conducted. The results demonstrate the superior effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed algorithm over existing FCM-related algorithms.
