Low-latitude climate change linked to high-latitude glaciation during the late paleozoic ice age: Evidence from terrigenous detrital kaolinite

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA; ca. 335–260 million years ago) was one of the most significant glacial events in Earth’s history. It records cycles of ice advance and retreat in southern high-latitude Gondwana and provides a deep-time perspective for ...

Characteristics of Pore Structure and Gas Content of the Lower Paleozoic Shale from the Upper Yangtze Plate, South China

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
This study is predominantly about the differences in shale pore structure and the controlling factors of shale gas content between Lower Silurian and Lower Cambrian from the upper Yangtze plate, which are of great significance to the occurrence mechanism

Robust Regression for Safe Exploration in Control

open access: yesCoRR, 2019
We study the problem of safe learning and exploration in sequential control problems. The goal is to safely collect data samples from operating in an environment, in order to learn to achieve a challenging control goal (e.g., an agile maneuver close to a boundary).

Verifiably safe exploration for end-to-end reinforcement learning [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 24th International Conference on Hybrid Systems: Computation and Control, 2021
Deploying deep reinforcement learning in safety-critical settings requires developing algorithms that obey hard constraints during exploration. This paper contributes a first approach toward enforcing formal safety constraints on end-to-end policies with visual inputs.

Safe Exploration in Continuous Action Spaces

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
We address the problem of deploying a reinforcement learning (RL) agent on a physical system such as a datacenter cooling unit or robot, where critical constraints must never be violated. We show how to exploit the typically smooth dynamics of these systems and enable RL algorithms to never violate constraints during learning.

Safe Exploration for Efficient Policy Evaluation and Comparison

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
High-quality data plays a central role in ensuring the accuracy of policy evaluation. This paper initiates the study of efficient and safe data collection for bandit policy evaluation. We formulate the problem and investigate its several representative variants.
