Recently, there has been a lot of excitement surrounding the use of reinforcement learning for robot control and navigation. However, many of these algorithms encounter difficulty navigating long or complex trajectories. This paper presents a new mobile robot control system called Stochastic Neural Control (SNC), that uses a stochastic policy gradient algorithm for local control and a modified pro...
