For marine development in harsh sea states, floating-body salvage equipment serves as critical support infrastructure. Aiming at the challenges of nonlinear dead-zone, model uncertainty, and actuator failures in the wave compensation systems of such equipment, this paper proposes an intelligent fault-tolerant control method based on neural networks. First, the dead-zone nonlinearity of the hydraulic system is compensated using an inverse model approach. Then, neural networks are employed to online learn unmodeled dynamics, while adaptive laws are designed to handle partial actuator failures and Lyapunov theory is used to prove the global stability of the closed-loop system, effectively enhancing the robustness and fault-tolerance of the wave compensation system under complex sea conditions. Unlike existing studies that rely on accurate system models, the proposed method integrates data-driven learning with model-based compensation. This integration enables adaptive handling of wave disturbances, model uncertainties, and actuator faults, thereby overcoming the strong model dependence and complex observer design inherent in traditional sliding-mode fault-tolerant control. Simulation and experiment results show that the method ensures high-precision dynamic tracking and compensation performance under various sea conditions.
