Infinite horizon self-learning optimal control of nonaffine discrete-time nonlinear systems.
In this paper, a novel iterative adaptive dynamic programming (ADP)-based infinite horizon self-learning optimal control algorithm, called generalized policy iteration algorithm, is developed for nonaffine discrete-time (DT) nonlinear systems. Generalized policy iteration algorithm is a general idea of interacting policy and value iteration algorithms of ADP. The developed generalized policy iteration algorithm permits an arbitrary positive semidefinite function to initialize the algorithm, where two iteration indices are used for policy improvement and policy evaluation, respectively. It is the first time that the convergence, admissibility, and optimality properties of the generalized policy iteration algorithm for DT nonlinear systems are analyzed. Neural networks are used to implement the developed algorithm. Finally, numerical examples are presented to illustrate the performance of the developed algorithm.
