“…As an alternative one can use a Monte Carlo scheme and this is the main idea of path integral control (Kappen, 2005;Theodorou, Buchli and Schaal, 2010;Theodorou, 2011;Morzfeld, 2015). Path integral control solves a class of stochastic control problems with a Monte Carlo method (Uddin et al, 2020;Islam, Alam and Afzal, 2021;Alam, 2021Alam, , 2022 for an HJB equation and this approach avoids the need for a global grid of the domain of the HJB equation (Yang et al, 2014). If the objective function is quadratic and the differential equations are linear, then the solution is given in terms of several Ricatti equations that can be solved efficiently (Kappen, 2007;Pramanik and Polansky, 2020b;Pramanik, 2021b;Pramanik and Polansky, 2021b).…”
