Design of Optical Tweezers Manipulation Control System Based on Novel Self-Organizing Fuzzy Cerebellar Model Neural Network

Holographic optical tweezers have unique non-physical contact and can manipulate and control single or multiple cells in a non-invasive way. In this paper, the dynamics model of the cells captured by the optical trap is analyzed, and a control system based on a novel self-organizing fuzzy cerebellar model neural network (NSOFCMNN) is proposed and applied to the cell manipulation control of holographic optical tweezers. This control system consists of a main controller using the NSOFCMNN with a new self-organization mechanism, a robust compensation controller, and a higher order sliding mode. It can accurately move the captured cells to the expected position through the optical trap generated by the holographic optical tweezers system. Both the layers and blocks of the proposed NSOFCMNN can be adjusted online according to the new self-organization mechanism. The compensation controller is used to eliminate the approximation errors. The higher order sliding surface can enhance the performance of controllers. The distances between cells are considered in order to further realize multi-cell cooperative control. In addition, the stability and convergence of the proposed NSOFCMNN are proved by the Lyapunov function, and the learning law is updated online by the gradient descent method. The simulation results show that the control system based on the proposed NSOFCMNN can effectively complete the cell manipulation task of optical tweezers and has better control performance than other neural network controllers.
