ADP and Reinforcement Learning Technical Committee

TC ADPRLTC

Who We Are

The Adaptive Dynamic Programming and Reinforcement Learning Technical Committee (ADPRLTC) is established to promote the research, development, education, and understanding of adaptive dynamic programming and reinforcement learning methods, including both theoretical and experimental approaches.

What We Do

The ADPRLTC shall engage in various activities in order to promote adaptive dynamic programming and reinforcement learning as a viable technology, including but not limited to the following:

  • Identify and promote new areas of research
  • Propose special sessions to the CIS-sponsored conference organizers
  • Participate in paper review and selection for CIS-sponsored conferences and publications
  • Coordinate with the International Neural Network Society for the International Joint Conference on Neural Networks in which ADPRL is also active
  • Recommend candidates to different Award Committees such as for the best papers published in the Transactions on Neural Networks
  • Promote IEEE Senior Members and Fellows program
  • Collaborate on production of tutorials and book series
  • Maintain the Committee's website
  • Facilitate local chapters activities and organize specialized workshops or meetings
  • The ADPRLTC will assist in soliciting conference proposals and actively work with the organizers of CIS-sponsored conferences to insure their technical excellence
