From linearly-solvable optimal control to trajectory optimization, and (hopefully) back

Published on Oct 16, 20124191 Views

We have identified a general class of stochastic optimal control problems which are inherently linear, in the sense that the exponentiated optimal value function satisfies a linear equation. These pro
