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.

CALOS is a runtime safety layer for quadrotor control that enforces attitude constraints without altering the underlying deep reinforcement learning algorithm. It formulates tilt-angle inequalities and a Lyapunov descent condition into a single quadratic program, solved exactly via active-set enumeration over a three-dimensional torque space. In NVIDIA Isaac Lab trajectory-tracking tasks, CALOS reduces lateral tracking error by 55‑60% compared to an unconstrained Proximal Policy Optimization baseline and eliminates attitude-constraint violations during training.
