FS-DDPG: Optimal Control of a Fan Coil Unit System Based on Safe Reinforcement Learning by Chenyang Li, Qiming Fu, Jianping Chen, You Lu, Yunzhe Wang, Hongjie Wu

“…To address this issue, we propose a novel FCU control method, Fluctuation Suppression–Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (FS-DDPG). The key innovation lies in applying a constrained Markov decision process to model the FCU control problem, where a penalty term for process constraints is incorporated into the reward function, and constraint tightening is introduced to limit the action space. …”
