A stochastic maximum principle approach for reinforcement learning with parameterized environment
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: In this work, we introduce a stochastic maximum principle (SMP) approach for solving the reinforcement learning problem with the assumption that the unknowns in the environment can be parameterized based on physics knowledge. For the development of numerical algorithms, we shall apply an effective online parameter estimation method as our exploration technique to estimate the environment parameter during the training procedure, and the exploitation for the optimal policy will be achieved by an efficient backward action learning method for policy improvement under the SMP framework. Numerical experiments will be presented to demonstrate that our SMP approach for reinforcement learning can produce reliable control policy, and the gradient descent type optimization in the SMP solver requires less training episodes compared with the standard dynamic programming principle based methods.
