As a research hotspot in the field of artificial intelligence, the application of deep reinforcement learning to the learning of the motion ability of a manipulator can help to improve the learning of the motion ability of a manipulator without a kinematic model. To suppress the overestimation bias of values in Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) networks, the Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) was proposed. This paper further suppresses the overestimation bias of values for multi-degree of freedom (DOF) manipulator learning based on deep reinforcement learning. Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient with Rebirth Mechanism (RTD3) was proposed. The experimental results show that RTD3 applied to multi degree freedom manipulators is in place,with an improved learning ability by 29.15% on the basis of TD3. In this paper, a step-by-step reward function is proposed specifically for the learning and innovation of the multi degree of freedom manipulator’s motion ability. The view of continuous decision-making and process problem is used to guide the learning of the manipulator, and the learning efficiency is improved by optimizing the playback of experience. In order to measure the point-to-point position motion ability of a manipulator, a new evaluation index based on the characteristics of the continuous decision process problem, energy efficiency distance, is presented in this paper, which can evaluate the learning quality of the manipulator motion ability by a more comprehensive and fair evaluation algorithm.

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has been an active research area in view of its capability in solving large-scale control problems. Until presently, many algorithms have been developed, such as Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG), Twin-Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3), and so on. However, the converging achievement of DRL often requires extensive collected data sets and training episodes, which is data inefficient and computing resource consuming. Motivated by the above problem, in this paper, we propose a Twin-Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient algorithm with a Rebirth Mechanism, Tetanic Stimulation and Amnesic Mechanisms (ATRTD3), for continuous control of a multi-DOF manipulator. In the training process of the proposed algorithm, the weighting parameters of the neural network are learned using Tetanic stimulation and Amnesia mechanism. The main contribution of this paper is that we show a biomimetic view to speed up the converging process by biochemical reactions generated by neurons in the biological brain during memory and forgetting. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is validated by a simulation example including the comparisons with previously developed DRL algorithms. The results indicate that our approach shows performance improvement in terms of convergence speed and precision.
