用收缩度量指导强化学习，让非线性控制更稳定且抗模型误差。

Control contraction metrics (CCMs)-defined by Riemannian metrics under which a closed-loop system is incrementally exponentially stable-offer a constructive framework for synthesizing contracting policies in nonlinear path-tracking problems. However, while the synthesized policies ensure pointwise satisfaction of the CCM conditions, they may not ensure long-term optimality (i.e., minimizing cumulative trajectory-level tracking error) over both transient and steady-state regimes. Furthermore, the myopic nature of these policies could also make them more susceptible to learning biases when approximate dynamics are used to formulate CCMs. To address these issues, we propose to integrate CCMs into reinforcement learning (RL). CCMs provide dynamics-informed feedback for learning a policy that has a stability guarantee-i.e., is contraction-aware-while RL provides a framework for minimizing cumulative tracking error under approximate dynamics. Given a pretrained dynamics model, our algorithm, contraction-aware RL (CARL), simultaneously learns to generate CCMs and optimize a policy for rewards defined by those CCMs. We demonstrate that CARL enhances path-tracking performance and is robust to errors in approximated dynamics compared to relevant baselines in both simulated and real-world robot experiments. We also provide theoretical rationale for integrating CCMs into RL.
