Abstract

In the control of robot manipulators, input torque constraints and system nonlinearities present significant challenges for precise trajectory tracking. However, fuzzy adaptive logic control (FALC) often fails to generate the optimal membership functions or function intervals. This paper proposes a modified greater cane rat algorithm (MGCRA) to optimize a fuzzy adaptive logic controller (FALC) for minimizing input torques during trajectory tracking tasks. The main innovation lies in integrating the improved MGCRA with FALC, which enhances the controller’s adaptability and performance. For benchmarking, several state-of-the-art swarm intelligence algorithms—including particle swarm optimization (PSO), artificial bee colony (ABC), ant colony optimization (ACO), gray wolf optimization (GWO), covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy (CMA-ES), adaptive guided differential evolution (AGDE), the basic greater cane rat algorithm (GCRA), and a trial-and-error method—are compared under identical conditions. Experimental results show that the MGCRA-tuned FALC achieves lower input torques and improved trajectory tracking accuracy compared to other methods. The findings demonstrate the effectiveness and potential of the proposed MGCRA-FALC framework for advanced robotic manipulator control.
