    Enhancing Thickness Determination of Nanoscale Dielectric Films in Phase Diffraction-Based Optical Characterization Systems With Radial Basis Function Neural Networks
    (IOP Publishing, 2023) Ataç, Enes; Karatay, Anıl; Dinleyici, Mehmet Salih
    Accurate determination of the optical properties of ultra-thin dielectric films is an essential and challenging task in optical fiber sensor systems. However, nanoscale thickness identification of these films may be laborious due to insufficient and protracted classical curve matching algorithms. Therefore, this experimental study presents an application of a radial basis function neural network in phase diffraction-based optical characterization systems to determine the thickness of nanoscale polymer films. The non-stationary measurement data with environmental and detector noise were subjected to a detailed analysis. The outcomes of this investigation are benchmarked against the linear discriminant analysis method and further verified by means of scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the neural network has reached a remarkable accuracy of 98% and 82.5%, respectively, in tests with simulation and experimental data. In this way, rapid and precise thickness estimation may be realized within the tolerance range of 25 nm, offering a significant improvement over conventional measurement techniques.

    Neural Network-Based Repetitive Learning Control of Euler Lagrange Systems: an Output Feedback Approach
    (IEEE, 2018) Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Çobanoğlu, Necati; Zergeroǧlu, Erkan
    In this letter, position tracking control problem of a class of fully actuated Euler Lagrange (EL) systems is aimed. The reference position vector is considered to be periodic with a known period. Only position measurements are available for control design while velocity measurements are not. Furthermore, the dynamic model of the EL systems has parametric and/or unstructured uncertainties which avoid it to be used as part of the control design. To address these constraints, an output feedback neural network-based repetitive learning control strategy is preferred. Via the design of a dynamic model independent velocity observer, the lack of velocity measurements is addressed. To compensate for the lack of dynamic model knowledge, universal approximation property of neural networks is utilized where an online adaptive update rule is designed for the weight matrix. The functional reconstruction error is dealt with the design of a novel repetitive learning feedforward term. The outcome is a dynamic model independent output feedback neural network-based controller with a repetitive learning feedforward component. The stability of the closed-loop system is investigated via rigorous mathematical tools with which semi-global asymptotic stability is ensured. © 2017 IEEE.
