Researchers achieve near-optimal regret in safe learning-based control for constrained LQR

Researchers have developed a new algorithm for adaptive control of stochastic linear quadratic regulators with constraints. This algorithm achieves near-optimal regret of $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{T})$ and satisfies chance constraints, which allows for handling unbounded noise. The method involves selecting an optimistic policy using semidefinite programming and then scaling it back to ensure safety, with theoretical guarantees derived from a novel covariance-based analysis.
