Reinforcement learning (RL) based control is explored in order to minimize model design efforts and regulate PBCNs with high complexities. A Q-learning random forest ( QLRF) algorithm is proposed; by making use of the algorithm, state feedback controllers are designed to stabilize the PBCNs at a given equilibrium point. Further, by adopting QLRF stabilized closed-loop PBCNs, a Lyapunov function is defined, and a method to construct the same is presented. By utilizing such Lyapunov functions, a novel self-triggered control (STC) strategy is proposed, whereby the controller is recomputed according to a triggering schedule, resulting in an optimal control strategy while retaining the closed-loop PBCN stability. Finally, the results are verified using computer simulations. (c) 2022 The Franklin Institute. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. 收起
