Global Convergence of Localized Policy Iteration in Networked Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning

Yizhou Zhang, Guannan Qu, Pan Xu +3

We study a multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) problem where the agents interact over a given network. The goal of the agents is to cooperatively maximize the average of thei…

Bounded-Regret MPC via Perturbation Analysis: Prediction Error, Constraints, and Nonlinearity

Yiheng Lin, Yang Hu, Guannan Qu +2

We study Model Predictive Control (MPC) and propose a general analysis pipeline to bound its dynamic regret. The pipeline first requires deriving a perturbation bound for a finite-…

Decentralized Online Convex Optimization in Networked Systems

Yiheng Lin, Judy Gan, Guannan Qu +2

We study the problem of networked online convex optimization, where each agent individually decides on an action at every time step and agents cooperatively seek to minimize the to…

KCRL: Krasovskii-Constrained Reinforcement Learning with Guaranteed Stability in Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

Sahin Lale, Yuanyuan Shi, Guannan Qu +3

Learning a dynamical system requires stabilizing the unknown dynamics to avoid state blow-ups. However, current reinforcement learning (RL) methods lack stabilization guarantees, w…

Equipping Black-Box Policies with Model-Based Advice for Stable Nonlinear Control

Tongxin Li, Ruixiao Yang, Guannan Qu +3

Machine-learned black-box policies are ubiquitous for nonlinear control problems. Meanwhile, crude model information is often available for these problems from, e.g., linear approx…

On the Sample Complexity of Stabilizing LTI Systems on a Single Trajectory

Yang Hu, Adam Wierman, Guannan Qu

Stabilizing an unknown dynamical system is one of the central problems in control theory. In this paper, we study the sample complexity of the learn-to-stabilize problem in Linear…
