[The researchers] propose a Lyapunov theory based linguistic reinforcement learning (RL) framework for stable tracking control of robotic manipulators. … Controlling robot manipulators is an extremely challenging and complex control problem due to their highly nonlinear and coupled dynamics. Flawless modeling of robotic manipulators is an equally daunting task; forcing the designer to make idealizing assumptions with consequent modeling errors. This has prompted designers to go for model free approaches. RL has emerged as an alternative technique to design high performance controllers for robot manipulators. [The] Lyapunov theory offers a powerful platform for designing controllers that are guaranteed to be stable and can handle model uncertainties and parameter variations. 2, record 2, English, - Lyapunov%20stability%20theory

There are two main ways that the offense can advance the ball: running and passing. In a typical play, the quarterback calls the play, and the center passes the ball backwards and under his legs to the quarterback in a process known as the snap. The quarterback then either hands the ball off to a back, throws the ball or runs with it himself. 2, record 4, English, - run%20the%20ball
