SuReLI
Supaero Reinforcement Learning Initiative
Supaero Reinforcement Learning Initiative
Who we are
Professors, researchers, engineers, students, researching open questions in Reinforcement Learning. Most of us are affiliated with ISAE-SUPAERO, where the team is hosted.
What we do
We work on state of the art algorithms, study their properties mathematically and empirically, and apply them to challenging problems to bridge a gap between theory and real applications. We focus on Reinforcement Learning for sequential decision making problems and its links with other disciplines (e.g. Operations Research, Evolutionary Computation, Planning, Optimization).
Our applications
Autonomous vehicles, control of optimization processes, rehabilitation exoskeleton control, video games, aircraft landing scheduling, satellite resources planning, sailboat and UAV planning and control, mobile robot mission planning, computer bug tracking, fluid flows control.
