Maximum-entropy based adaptive control of machining process

With the aim of validating the feasibility of applying a maximum-entropy-based adaptive control program to the constant force control of a machining process, the maximum-entropy criterion is first introduced. The control flow of the machining process and the mathematic model of the machine tool for experiment are then explained. Finally, both simulation and experiment results are studied to compare the proposed controller and the conventional PID controller. It thus indicates that maximum-entropy based controller is appropriate for the machining process.
