Featured Paper: Reinforcement Learning Control With Knowledge Shaping
An example of the impactful research published in the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning Systems is the featured paper titled “Reinforcement Learning Control With Knowledge Shaping” (Volume 35, Issue 3, March 2024). This article delves into the innovative area of transfer reinforcement learning, presenting a framework (RL-KS) that leverages prior knowledge to enhance the learning performance of new tasks.
The research distinguishes itself by providing not only empirical validation through simulations but also rigorous analysis of algorithm convergence and solution optimality. Unlike traditional potential-based reward shaping methods, this work offers a novel theoretical perspective on positive knowledge transfer. Furthermore, it introduces two principled approaches for representing prior knowledge within the RL-KS framework, offering practical realization schemes. Evaluations span classical RL benchmarks and a complex real-time robotic lower limb control task involving human-in-the-loop interaction.
