Bridging Reinforcement Learning and Optimal Control via Feasible Action Mapping
arXiv eess.SY0 views
arXiv:2607.23930v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Operating constrained dynamical systems requires controllers to efficiently solve complex tasks while enforcing recursive feasibility and physical constraints. To address these competing requirements, we present Feasible Action for Optimal Control (FAOC), a novel control framework integrating Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Optimal Control (OC). The core contribution is a computationally efficient, optimization-based mapping algorithm that transforms the RL agent's action from a static abstract set into a state-dependent feasible parameter set of the Optimal Control Problem (OCP), guaranteeing instantaneous parameter feasibility. When paired with invariant terminal sets, FAOC guarantees strict recursive feasibility and safe operation, effectively combining the predictable safety of OC with the behavioral flexibility of RL. Unlike prior work, the abstract action space does not require expert tuning, nor is the OCP formulation compromised by the inability of RL to guarantee feasibility. We evaluate FAOC on real-time motion planning for robot table tennis, where simulated experiments demonstrate superior sample efficiency and closed-loop performance compared to state-of-the-art baselines. We open-source the used implementation of the mapping algorithm and OCP for motion planning https://github.com/SonyResearch/feasible_action_for_optimal_control.
