Online Observer-Based Inverse Reinforcement Learning

3 Nov 2020  ·  Ryan Self, Kevin Coleman, He Bai, Rushikesh Kamalapurkar ·

In this paper, a novel approach to the output-feedback inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) problem is developed by casting the IRL problem, for linear systems with quadratic cost functions, as a state estimation problem. Two observer-based techniques for IRL are developed, including a novel observer method that re-uses previous state estimates via history stacks. Theoretical guarantees for convergence and robustness are established under appropriate excitation conditions. Simulations demonstrate the performance of the developed observers and filters under noisy and noise-free measurements.
