Transactions on Cybernetics

Scope

The scope of the IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics includes computational approaches to the field of cybernetics. Specifically, the transactions welcomes papers on communication and control across machines or between machine, human, and organizations. The scope includes such areas as computational intelligence, computer vision, neural networks, genetic algorithms, machine learning, fuzzy systems, cognitive systems, decision making, and robotics, to the extent that they contribute to the theme of cybernetics or demonstrate an application of cybernetics principles.

IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics replaced the IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Part B: Cybernetics on January 1, 2013.

This article aims to investigate the performance-guaranteed tracking problem for a class of uncertain nonlinear systems. The main goal is to attain control performance within prescribed-time (PT) limits despite the existence of mismatched disturbances. First, the mismatched disturbances are transformed into the equivalent forms. Second, for the unknown disturbance estimation,...

This article addresses the problem of adaptive prescribed-time distributed consensus tracking with dynamic full-state and input triggering for a class of uncertain state-constrained strict-feedback multiagent systems with external disturbances. The primary contribution lies in developing of a novel prescribed-time disturbance observer-based adaptive chainlike filter, capable of generating smooth estimates of...

Underwater vehicle-manipulator systems (UVMSs) play crucial roles in the fields of underwater target monitoring and pipeline maintenance. However, achieving accurate tracking for underwater pipelines is challenging due to the complexity of UVMSs in terms of nonlinearity, strong coupling and underactuation. To solve the aforementioned problems, an underwater biomimetic vehicle-manipulator system...

Accurate recognition of human motion intention (HMI) is beneficial for exoskeleton robots to improve the wearing comfort level and achieve natural human-robot interaction. A classifier trained on labeled source subjects (domains) performs poorly on unlabeled target subject since the difference in individual motor characteristics. The unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) method...

We consider a joint uplink and downlink scheduling problem of a fully distributed wireless networked control system (WNCS) with a limited number of frequency channels. Using elements of stochastic systems theory, we derive a sufficient stability condition of the WNCS, which is stated in terms of both the control and...
