Abstract(in English) Recently, Todorov [1] proposed a technique to strictly linearize a Bellman equation under a instruction on the cost function by exponential transformation of the variable. This enables deriving the value function and the optimal control law analytically, because the Bellman equation became an eigenvalue problem. In continuous state space case, a linearized bellman equation is required to solve an eigenfunction problem, Todorov has already shown a technique for deriving the eigenfunction by using the functional approximation [2]. Although these techniques are attractive for application to real system like robot, They assume that the dynamics of the system is already-known. In a real system, it is rare that they are already-known. It investigate only low dimensionality like swing-up balancing task. In this paper, We proposes a method for deriving an optimal control law from the estimated motor-visual dynamics from the sequence of experienced states and action and apply this method to real system with high state-actions space. In a visual guide task, Robot learn appropriate behavior and obtain better controller than LQR when the problem setting is equivalent to LQR.
