An Online Actor–Critic Algorithm with Function Approximation for Constrained Markov Decision Processes

We develop an online actor–critic reinforcement learning algorithm with function approximation for a problem of control under inequality constraints. We consider the long-run average cost Markov decision process (MDP) framework in which both the objective and the constraint functions are suitable po...
