We propose a novel framework for solving continuous-time non-Markovian stochastic control problems by means of neural rough differential equations (Neural RDEs) introduced in Morrill et al. (2021). Non-Markovianity naturally arises in…

The main contributions of this paper are three fold. First, our primary concern is to investigate a class of stochastic recursive delayed control problems which arise naturally with sound backgrounds but have not been well-studied yet. For…
