Equivalence of Optimality Criteria for Markov Decision Process and Model Predictive Control
Arash Bahari Kordabad, Mario Zanon, Sebastien Gros
This paper shows that the optimal policy and value functions of a Markov Decision Process (MDP), either discounted or not, can be captured by a finite-horizon undiscounted Optimal…
Functional Stability of Discounted Markov Decision Processes Using Economic MPC Dissipativity Theory
Arash Bahari Kordabad, Sebastien Gros
This paper discusses the functional stability of closed-loop Markov Chains under optimal policies resulting from a discounted optimality criterion, forming Markov Decision Processe…
Quasi-Newton Iteration in Deterministic Policy Gradient
Arash Bahari Kordabad, Hossein Nejatbakhsh Esfahani, Wenqi Cai +1
This paper presents a model-free approximation for the Hessian of the performance of deterministic policies to use in the context of Reinforcement Learning based on Quasi-Newton st…
Optimal Management of the Peak Power Penalty for Smart Grids Using MPC-based Reinforcement Learning
Wenqi Cai, Hossein N. Esfahani, Arash B. Kordabad +1
The cost of the power distribution infrastructures is driven by the peak power encountered in the system. Therefore, the distribution network operators consider billing consumers b…
Multi-agent Battery Storage Management using MPC-based Reinforcement Learning
A. Bahari Kordabad, W. Cai, S. Gros
In this paper, we present the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) based on Reinforcement Learning (RL) to find the optimal policy for a multi-agent battery storage system. A time…
MPC-based Reinforcement Learning for a Simplified Freight Mission of Autonomous Surface Vehicles
Wenqi Cai, Arash B. Kordabad, Hossein N. Esfahani +2
In this work, we propose a Model Predictive Control (MPC)-based Reinforcement Learning (RL) method for Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs). The objective is to find an optimal polic…
