Article Summary

We propose a reinforcement learning (RL) based optimal distributed control algorithm for the multi-agent systems (MASs) with stochastic uncertainties. Unlike existing methods, during the optimized backstepping design process, we use the actor-critic-identifier structure. The actor neural network is used to reflect control behavior, the critic neural network works to evaluate control performance and the unknown stochastic uncertainties are handled by identifier neural network. Furthermore, a low-pass filter effectively suppresses problems stemming from non-affine nonlinear faults and a hybrid event-triggered control (ETC) strategy is proposed to reduce control frequency. We analyze our algorithm's operation, and we provide a Lyapunov-based stability proof that guarantees all errors are bounded, ensuring precise tracking between the leader and followers. We validate its correctness in a single-axis robotic manipulator simulation and finally, we compare against the non-optimal control algorithm highlighting our optimal control algorithm's operational advantages.
