Computationally effective optimization methods for complex process control and scheduling problems
DownloadFall 2011
Over the years, how to reduce the operational cost, raise the profit and enhance the operational safety attracts tremendous interests in the chemical and petroleum industry. Since the regulatory control strategy may not achieve such rigorous requirements, higher level process control activities,...

Technical report TR09-10. We present four new reinforcement learning algorithms based on actor-critic, function approximation, and natural gradient ideas, and we provide their convergence proofs. Actor-critic reinforcement learning methods are online approximations to policy iteration in which...

Technical report TR09-13. This article presents a survey of reinforcement learning algorithms for Markov Decision Processes (MDP). In the first half of the article, the problem of value estimation is considered. Here we start by describing the idea of bootstrapping and temporal difference...
