Adaptive Guidance and Integrated Navigation with Reinforcement Meta-Learning

no code implementations18 Apr 2019 Brian Gaudet, Richard Linares, Roberto Furfaro

We also demonstrate the ability of a RL meta-learning optimized policy to implement a guidance law using observations consisting of only Doppler radar altimeter readings in a Mars landing environment, and LIDAR altimeter readings in an asteroid landing environment, thus integrating guidance and navigation.
