This work proposes novel Neural Network (NN) training algorithms and architectures to solve with lowcost general Optimal Control problems: regression of the optimal control policy for a given state trajectory. This is achieved via two novelties: first, a novel cost-effective optimal control solver is used for low-cost data augmentation of optimal state-control trajectories, and then combined with Feedforward and General Regression Neural Networks to solve the so-called direct regression problem. Secondly, Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle is leveraged to modify physics-informed NN to embed the Hamiltonian structure of Optimal Control within the training algorithm for enhanced robustness and generalized performance.
