Abstract

In this paper, we study an entropy-regularized continuous-time linear-quadratic two-person zero-sum stochastic differential game problem from the perspective of reinforcement learning (RL). By the solvability of a discounted algebraic Riccati equation, we construct a Gaussian closed-loop optimal control pair for the problem, which achieves the best tradeoff between exploration and exploitation. Then, in this exploratory framework, we propose an RL algorithm that relies on only partial system information to solve a stochastic H∞ control problem. The corresponding convergence analysis and simulation examples are also provided to verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
