In this paper, a new adaptive critic design is proposed to approximate the online Nash equilibrium solution for the robust trajectory tracking control of non-zero-sum (NZS) games for continuous-time uncertain nonlinear systems. First, the augmented system was constructed by combining the tracking error and the reference trajectory. By modifying the cost function, the robust tracking control problem was transformed into an optimal tracking control problem. Based on adaptive dynamic programming (ADP), a single critic neural network (NN) was applied for each player to solve the coupled Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equations approximately, and the obtained control laws were regarded as the feedback Nash equilibrium. Two additional terms were introduced in the weight update law of each critic NN, which strengthened the weight update process and eliminated the strict requirements for the initial stability control policy. More importantly, in theory, through the Lyapunov theory, the stability of the closed-loop system was guaranteed, and the robust tracking performance was analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed scheme was verified by two examples.

This paper addresses the problem of decentralized safety control (DSC) of constrained interconnected nonlinear safety-critical systems under reinforcement learning strategies, where asymmetric input constraints and security constraints are considered. To begin with, improved performance functions associated with the actuator estimates for each auxiliary subsystem are constructed. Then, the decentralized control problem with security constraints and asymmetric input constraints is transformed into an equivalent decentralized control problem with asymmetric input constraints using the barrier function. This approach ensures that safety-critical systems operate and learn optimal DSC policies within their safe global domains. Then, the optimal control strategy is shown to ensure that the entire system is uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB). In addition, all signals in the closed-loop auxiliary subsystem, based on Lyapunov theory, are uniformly ultimately bounded, and the effectiveness of the designed method is verified by practical simulation.
