Discrete control stabilizes unstable equilibria by creating chaotic attractors. Artificial neural networks with reinforcement learning can learn these complex control schemes, exhibiting chaos in both the system and controller.

Area of Science:

  • Control Theory
  • Dynamical Systems
  • Artificial Intelligence

Background:

  • Stabilizing unstable equilibria is a fundamental challenge in control theory.
  • Discrete control, involving controls at discrete times and values, presents unique difficulties.
  • Artificial neural networks (ANNs) with reinforcement learning (RL) show promise in learning complex control strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the dynamics arising from stabilizing unstable equilibria using discrete control.
  • To demonstrate that discrete control typically induces chaotic attractors near equilibria.
  • To explore the application of ANNs with RL for learning such discrete control schemes.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical analysis to prove the emergence of chaotic attractors.

  • Implementation of reinforcement learning algorithms for discrete control.
  • Numerical simulations to analyze system dynamics and controller activity.
  • Main Results:

    • Discrete control of unstable equilibria characteristically generates chaotic attractors.
    • Reinforcement learning successfully learns control schemes for these systems.
    • The resulting dynamics exhibit positive Lyapunov exponents, confirming chaos.
    • Chaos is observable in both the controlled system and the ANN controller's patterns.

    Conclusions:

    • Discrete control, while stabilizing, inherently introduces chaotic dynamics.
    • ANNs with RL provide a viable method for learning effective discrete control strategies.
    • The study highlights the interplay between control, chaos, and artificial intelligence in complex systems.
