Abstract

In this paper, a reinforcement learning technique is applied for a vehicle to learn and copy the trace of the forward driving path so that the vehicle can drive the path back to the initial position autonomously. Reinforcement learning algorithm is used to correct the trajectory tracking control where there are both lateral and longitudinal slips of the vehicle. Simulation studies of following the forward path a vehicle passed backward are conducted.
