In this paper, an adaptive control approach based on the multidimensional Taylor network (MTN) is proposed here for the real‐time tracking control of multiple‐input–multiple‐output (MIMO) time‐varying uncertain nonlinear systems with noises. Two MTNs are used to formulate the optimum control and adaptive filtering approaches. The feed‐forward MTN controller (MTNC) is developed to realize the precise tracking control. The closed‐loop errors between the filtered outputs and expected values are directly chosen as the MTNC's inputs. A valid initial value selection scheme for the weights of the MTNC, which can ensure the initial stability of adaptive process, is introduced. The proposed MTNC can update its weights online according to errors caused by system's uncertain factors, based on stable learning rate. The resilient backpropagation algorithm and the adaptive variable step size algorithm via linear reinforcement are utilized to update the MTNC's weights. The MTN filter (MTNF) is developed to eliminate measurement noises and other stochastic factors. The proposed adaptive MTN filtering system possesses the distinctive properties of the Lyapunov theory–based adaptive filtering system and MTN. Lyapunov function of the filtering errors between the measured values and MTNF's outputs is defined. By properly choosing the weights update law in the Lyapunov sense, the MTNF's outputs can asymptotically converge to the desired signals. The design is independent of the stochastic properties of the input disturbances. Simulation of the MTN‐based control is conducted to test the effectiveness of the presented results.
