Reinforcement learning
Reinforcement learning and neurocontrol

Objective

In a joint project with the Control Group from the Delft University of Technology we investigate Reinforcement learning (RL) for control applications. The objective is to investigate RL in the continuous state domain and to study the applicability for real control problems.

Research Achievements

We investigated how much exploration (exitation) we have to add to the control signal in order to get good learning performance. For the LQR framework we found that conventional system identification approach needed less exploration. For non-linear systems we developed `Neural-Q' learning.
