Abstract
Optimal control describes the problem of finding a control to minimize an objective function for a dynamical system over a period of time. It has been applied in a wide variety of applications in robotics, signal processing, and machine learning over several decades. On the other hand, reinforcement learning (RL) assumes the uncertain model of transition dynamics and has achieved great empirical success in recent years including simulated game scenarios and robotics. This thesis focuses on topics in both optimal control and reinforcement learning.
