Actor-Critic Reinforcement Learning with Phased Actor

no code implementations18 Apr 2024 Ruofan Wu, Junmin Zhong, Jennie Si

We prove qualitative properties of PAAC for learning convergence of the value and policy, solution optimality, and stability of system dynamics.

Mitigating Estimation Errors by Twin TD-Regularized Actor and Critic for Deep Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations7 Nov 2023 Junmin Zhong, Ruofan Wu, Jennie Si

We address the issue of estimation bias in deep reinforcement learning (DRL) by introducing solution mechanisms that include a new, twin TD-regularized actor-critic (TDR) method.

Modulation-Enhanced Excitation for Continuous-Time Reinforcement Learning via Symmetric Kronecker Products

no code implementations31 Jul 2023 Brent A. Wallace, Jennie Si

This work introduces new results in continuous-time reinforcement learning (CT-RL) control of affine nonlinear systems to address a major algorithmic challenge due to a lack of persistence of excitation (PE).

Toward Reliable Designs of Data-Driven Reinforcement Learning Tracking Control for Euler-Lagrange Systems

no code implementations31 Dec 2020 Zhikai Yao, Jennie Si, Ruofan Wu, Jianyong Yao

Our proposed new design takes advantage of two control design frameworks: a reinforcement learning based, data-driven approach to provide the needed adaptation and (sub)optimality, and a backstepping based approach to provide closed-loop system stability framework.

Reinforcement Learning Control of Robotic Knee with Human in the Loop by Flexible Policy Iteration

no code implementations16 Jun 2020 Xiang Gao, Jennie Si, Yue Wen, Minhan Li, He, Huang

We are motivated by the real challenges presented in a human-robot system to develop new designs that are efficient at data level and with performance guarantees such as stability and optimality at systems level.
