Autonomous Helicopter Flight via Reinforcement Learning

چکیده
Autonomous helicopter flight represents a challenging control problem, with complex, noisy, dynamics. In this paper, we describe a successful application of reinforcement learning to autonomous helicopter flight. We first fit a stochastic, nonlinear model of the helicopter dynamics. We then use the model to learn to hover in place, and to fly a number of maneuvers taken from an RC helicopter competition.

Autonomous Inverted Helicopter Flight via Reinforcement Learning
Helicopters have highly stochastic, nonlinear, dynamics, and autonomous helicopter flight is widely regarded to be a challenging control problem. As helicopters are highly unstable at low speeds, it is particularly difficult to design controllers for low speed aerobatic maneuvers. In this paper, we describe a successful application of reinforcement learning to designing a controller for sustain...
متن کاملLearning Through Interaction
Reinforcement learning is an approach for learning optimal action policy via experiencing, i.e. using observed reward in environment states. Reinforcement learning algorithms include adaptive dynamic programming, temporal difference learning and Q-learning[1]. Examples of successful applications of reinforcement learning are controller for sustained inverted flight on an autonomous helicopter [...
متن کاملAn Application of Reinforcement Learning to Aerobatic Helicopter Flight
Autonomous helicopter flight is widely regarded to be a highly challenging control problem. This paper presents the first successful autonomous completion on a real RC helicopter of the following four aerobatic maneuvers: forward flip and sideways roll at low speed, tail-in funnel, and nose-in funnel. Our experimental results significantly extend the state of the art in autonomous helicopter fl...
متن کاملMulti-Strategy Learning of Robotic Behaviours via Qualitative Reasoning
Introduction When given a task, an autonomous agent must plan a series of actions to perform in order to complete the goal. In robotics, planners face additional challenges as the domain is typically large (even infinite) continuous, noisy, and nondeterministic. Typically stochastic planning has been used to solve robotic control tasks. Particular success has been achieved with Model-Based Rein...
متن کاملIntelligent Auto pilot Design for a Nonlinear Model of an Autonomous Helicopter by Adaptive Emotional Approach
There is a growing interest in the modeling and control of model helicopters using nonlinear dynamic models and nonlinear control. Application of a new intelligent control approach called Brain Emotional Learning Based Intelligent Controller (BELBIC) to design autopilot for an autonomous helicopter is addressed in this paper. This controller is applied to a nonlinear model of a helicopter. This...
