Jacobian-Free Backpropagation shows convergence for implicit Hamiltonian optimal control

Researchers have established convergence guarantees for Jacobian-Free Backpropagation (JFB) in stochastic minibatch settings for optimal control problems with implicit Hamiltonians. This theoretical advancement demonstrates that JFB updates can converge to stationary points of the expected optimal control objective. The study also empirically validates JFB's scalability on complex, high-dimensional problems, including multi-agent consumption and quadrotor control. AI

    On the Convergence of Jacobian-Free Backpropagation for Optimal Control Problems with Implicit Hamiltonians

    arXiv:2602.00921v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Optimal feedback control with implicit Hamiltonians poses a fundamental challenge for learning-based value function methods due to the absence of closed-form optimal control laws. Recent work~\cite{gelphman2025end} introdu…
