Workshop

Foundations of Reinforcement Learning and Control: Connections and Perspectives

Claire Vernade · Michael Muehlebach · Johannes Kirschner · Dylan Foster · Alexandre Proutiere · Csaba Szepesvari · Andreas Krause · Onno Eberhard

Schubert 4 - 6

Sat 27 Jul, midnight PDT

Despite rapid advances in machine learning, solving large-scale stochastic dynamic programming problems remains a significant challenge. The combination of neural networks with RL has opened new avenues for algorithm design, but the lack of theoretical guarantees of these approaches hinders their applicability to high-stake problems traditionally addressed using control theory, such as online supply chain optimization, industrial automation, and adaptive transportation systems. This workshop focuses on recent advances in developing a learning theory of decision (control) systems, that builds on techniques and concepts from two communities that have had limited interactions despite their shared target: reinforcement learning and control theory.
