Webinar Details
In this webinar, Prof. Vinodh Kumar will discuss a deep reinforcement learning (RL) control framework for a rotary flexible link system. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) control combines deep neural network with reinforcement learning to solve multi-dimensional control and optimization problems. The session will discuss the potentials of DRL and how it can be used for tracking and vibration suppression of the flexible link system using a continuous action space RL algorithm. The benefits of DRL control over a model-based control will be demonstrated with videos of several experiments.
