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.

A novel approach is proposed for flexible performance-based control of strict-feedback systems subject to input saturation. The core design consists of three key components. First, the regulation of the performance function (PF) is achieved by reformulating it as an adaptive modification of its exponential index, exploiting its inherent structural properties....

This article proposes an adjustable-error neural network (NN) approximator and incorporates it into the adaptive neural tracking controller design of uncertain nonlinear systems. Noted that the error between the unknown nonlinear function and the NN approximator cannot be adjusted under the traditional NN control framework, as it is solely determined...

The problem of command-filter-based adaptive fixed-time tracking control is investigated for nonlinear systems with time-varying uncertain parameters and disturbances in this article. Existing fixed-time control strategies via an adaptive approach are primarily bounded-error, trajectory tracking-oriented. Different from previous results, we propose a new fixed-time stability lemma utilizing an exponential decay...

Given the high coupling of state variables in second-order chaotic systems, the projective synchronization control schemes for first- or fractional-order chaotic systems are not applicable in second-order chaotic systems. Also, the current control schemes on second-order chaotic systems are difficult to tradeoff between convergence and robustness. To address the above...

Electroencephalography (EEG) emotion recognition plays a key role in improving human–machine interactions. Advanced algorithms have been proposed for this task. However, two challenges remain, i.e., unclear decision boundary in the embedded space and noise in physiological signals from various devices. To this end, we develop a novel framework, namely, UACL-Net,...
