Mahalanobis-Guided Latent OOD Detection for Hybrid ES-DRL Control in Time-Varying Systems
Shaifalee Saxena, Alexander Scheinker
In this paper, we study Mahalanobis-guided latent out-of-distribution (OOD) detection for test-time RL controller switching in nonlinear time-varying systems. RL controllers can qu…

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Robotic Manipulation under Distribution Shift with Bounded Extremum Seeking
Shaifalee Saxena, Rafael Fierro, Alexander Scheinker
Reinforcement learning has shown strong performance in robotic manipulation, but learned policies often degrade in performance when test conditions differ from the training distrib…

Improved Robustness of Deep Reinforcement Learning for Control of Time-Varying Systems by Bounded Extremum Seeking
Shaifalee Saxena, Alan Williams, Rafael Fierro +1
In this paper, we study the use of robust model independent bounded extremum seeking (ES) feedback control to improve the robustness of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) controller…
