Model-free approaches for reinforcement learning (RL) and continuous control find policies based only on past states and rewards, without fitting a model of the system dynamics. They are appealing as they are general purpose and easy to…

This paper applies a reinforcement learning (RL) method to solve infinite horizon continuous-time stochastic linear quadratic problems, where drift and diffusion terms in the dynamics may depend on both the state and control. Based on…

This paper is concerned with a backward stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ, for short) optimal control problem with deterministic coefficients. The weighting matrices are allowed to be indefinite, and cross-product terms in the control and…

Geometry-aware optimizers such as Newton and natural gradient can improve conditioning in deep learning, but scalable variants such as K-FAC, Shampoo, and related preconditioners usually impose structural approximations early, often…

This paper considers a stochastic linear quadratic problem for discrete-time systems with multiplicative noises over an infinite horizon. To obtain the optimal solution, we propose an online iterative algorithm of reinforcement learning…

We study the convergence of deterministic policy gradient algorithms in continuous state and action space for the prototypical Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problem when the search space is not limited to the family of linear policies.…

There has been substantial recent progress on the theoretical understanding of model-free approaches to Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) problems. Much attention has been devoted to the special case when the goal is to drive the state close…

We consider the problem of conformal prediction under covariate shift. Given labeled data from a source domain and unlabeled data from a covariate shifted target domain, we seek to construct prediction sets with valid marginal coverage in…

We present an efficient algorithm to compute the induced norms of finite-horizon Linear Time-Varying (LTV) systems. The formulation includes both induced $\mathcal{L}_2$ and terminal Euclidean norm penalties. Existing computational…

Dynamic decision-making under distributional shifts is of fundamental interest in theory and applications of reinforcement learning: The distribution of the environment in which the data is collected can differ from that of the environment…

The linear quadratic regulator (LQR) problem has reemerged as an important theoretical benchmark for reinforcement learning-based control of complex dynamical systems with continuous state and action spaces. In contrast with nearly all…

While differentiable control has emerged as a powerful paradigm combining model-free flexibility with model-based efficiency, the iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator (iLQR) remains underexplored as a differentiable component. The…
