    A Survey on Policy Search for Robotics

    , Publisher: now Publishers

    Policy search is a subfield in reinforcement learning which focuses onfinding good parameters for a given policy parametrization. It is wellsuited for robotics as it can cope with high-dimensional state and actionspaces, one of the main challenges in robot learning. We review recentsuccesses of both model-free and model-based policy search in robotlearning.Model-free policy search is a general approach to learn policiesbased on sampled trajectories. We classify model-free methods based ontheir policy evaluation strategy, policy update strategy, and explorationstrategy and present a unified view on existing algorithms. Learning apolicy is often easier than learning an accurate forward model, and,hence, model-free methods are more frequently used in practice. How-ever, for each sampled trajectory, it is necessary to interact with the robot, which can be time consuming and challenging in practice. Model-based policy search addresses this problem by first learning a simulatorof the robot’s dynamics from data. Subsequently, the simulator gen-erates trajectories that are used for policy learning. For both model-free and model-based policy search methods, we review their respectiveproperties and their applicability to robotic systems.
