arXiv:2606. 05888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retry-based objectives such as pass@K and max@K optimize the best return obtained from multiple sampled trajectories, and recent work has shown that they can promote exploration without explicit exploration bonuses.
The paper introduces Solver-Gradient Guided Reinforcement Learning (SG‑RL), a method that augments standard RL with bounded gradients from a differentiable MPC solver to adapt cost‑function weights online. SG‑RL integrates solver‑gradient guidance into PPO through actor‑update scaling, policy loss, advantage estimation, and value‑function learning, achieving comparable or superior closed‑loop performance while requiring up to 70.6% fewer samples. Experiments on two autonomous racing platforms with intentional model mismatch demonstrate that SG‑RL outperforms both RL and gradient‑based policy learning baselines and generalizes zero‑shot to unseen environments.
BVR Sim is an open‑source, Gymnasium‑style environment for heterogeneous air‑combat reinforcement learning, supporting multiple JSBSim aircraft models (F‑15, F‑16, F/A‑18, F‑22) with configurable weapons, sensors, and opponents. It offers a unified tactical action interface, interchangeable Python and accelerated C++ backends, entity‑oriented observations, compositional rewards, scripted opponents, replay and visualization, and adapters for multi‑agent learning frameworks. At a 0.4‑second decision interval, the C++ backend achieves 104 simulated seconds per wall‑clock second in 1‑vs‑1 and remains practical through 10‑vs‑10 scenarios, and a policy trained on the F‑16 transfers to four unseen aircraft with a 45.5% mean win rate after controller adaptation.

The paper proposes a hybrid PID–Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) controller for industrial processes, addressing the limitations of traditional PID controllers in complex, non‑linear, multi‑input environments. Using the Industrial Benchmark (IB) to test DRL, the authors develop a multi‑objective reward function and employ a TD3 agent to discover optimal settings for the IB’s ‘Gain’ and ‘Shift’ parameters. These parameters are then fed into a tuned PID controller, yielding a system that combines the optimal performance and efficiency of DRL with the reliability of classical control.
