Approximation Error Back-Propagation for Q-Function in Scalable Reinforcement Learning with Tree Dependence Structure

ICASSP 2023accepted

This paper applies the exponential decay property of scalable RL theory to a specific scenario where the network structure is a tree, and use KL (Kullback-Leibler) divergence to analyze the propagation of approximation error along the structure over time, in order to quantify its backtracking result…

FIORA : A Flexible Tendon-Driven Continuum Manipulator for Laparoscopic Surgery

RA-L 2022

Aiming at solving the problems of low flexibility, poor internal extension, and chopstick effect in most laparoscopic surgical robots, this letter presents a flexible tendon-driven continuum surgical manipulator with eight degrees of freedom, called FIORA. The manipulator is composed of three indepe
