• Abstract: We present a Reinforcement Learning-based Robust Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (RL-RNMPC) framework for controlling nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties. An approximate Robust Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (RNMPC) of low computational complexity is used in which the state trajectory uncertainty is modelled via ellipsoids. Reinforcement Learning is then used in order to handle the ellipsoidal approximation and improve the closed-loop performance of the scheme by adjusting the MPC parameters generating the ellipsoids. The approach is tested on a simulated Wheeled Mobile Robot (WMR) tracking a desired trajectory while avoiding static obstacles.

  We propose a novel framework, Neural Internal Model Control, which integrates model-based control with RL-based control to enhance robustness. Our framework streamlines the predictive model by applying Newton-Euler equations for rigid-body dynamics, eliminating the need to capture complex high-dimensional nonlinearities. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework on both quadrotors and quadrupedal robots, achieving superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.

  This paper presents a policy parameterization for learning-based control on nonlinear, partially-observed dynamical systems. We prove that the resulting Youla-REN parameterization automatically satisfies stability (contraction) and user-tunable robustness (Lipschitz) conditions. We find that the Youla-REN performs similarly to existing learning-based and optimal control methods while also ensuring stability and exhibiting improved robustness to adversarial disturbances.
