Abstract

Conventional solutions, such as the conventional recurrent neural network (CRNN) and gradient recurrent neural network (GRNN), for the motion control of mobile robots in the unified framework of recurrent neural network (RNN) are difficult to simultaneously consider both criteria optimization and ph...
