Dear all, Final reminder for this exciting Workshop on Modern Applications of Control Theory and Reinforcement Learning: https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/workshop-on-modern-applications-of-control-theory-and-reinforcement-learning/ Control theory and reinforcement learning (RL) converge on a shared objective: facilitating autonomous, real-time decision-making to optimise dynamical processes. Methods from control and RL are being increasingly applied to diverse fields, in particular complex adaptive systems such as climate-socio-economics, neuroscience, and similar. Finding safe, robust and optimal interventions on these systems will be crucial for the benefit of society. This workshop aims to foster the transfer of methods of control and RL across these upcoming domains. The workshop is open to all, especially (budding) researchers who would like to apply these methods to real-world complex systems. Dates: 20-21 May 2025 Venue: CWI (Research Institute for Mathematics and Computer Science), Amsterdam, Netherlands We welcome poster presentations from attendees. Distinguished researchers will discuss methods used in a variety of domains, from critical network infrastructure like power grids, to sustainability economics and neuroscience: Diederik Roijers <https://roijers.info/>, VU Brussel, Belgium - *A Plea for User-Centred RL* Elena Rovenskaya <https://iiasa.ac.at/staff/elena-rovenskaya>, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), Austria - *Optimal Control and the Stories We Tell About Climate Change Economics* Herke van Hoof <https://staff.fnwi.uva.nl/h.c.vanhoof/homepage/>, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands - *Reinforcement learning for real-world network infrastructure* Marcel van Gerven <https://www.ru.nl/en/people/gerven-m-van>, Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands - *Harnessing Noise for Neuromorphic Control* Marta Kwiatkowska <https://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/people/marta.kwiatkowska/bio.html>, University of Oxford, United Kingdom - *Provable guarantees for data-driven policy synthesis: a formal verification perspective* Sander Bohté <https://www.cwi.nl/en/people/sander-bohte/>, CWI, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands - *Scaling Biologically Plausible Deep Reinforcement Learning* Sander Keemink <https://www.ru.nl/en/people/keemink-s>, Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands - *To spike or not to spike: using brain-like signals for control* Timm Faulwasser <https://www.tuhh.de/ics/teampages/timm-faulwasser>, Hamburg University of Technology, Germany - *TBA* Wolfram Barfuss <https://www.uni-bonn.de/en/research-and-teaching/research-profile/transdisciplinary-research-areas/tra-6-sustainable-futures/members-directory/wolfram-barfuss>, University of Bonn, Germany - *Collective Reinforcement Learning Dynamics for Sustainability Economics* [image: Banner Workhop on Modern Applications of Control Theory and Reinforcement Learning] Please register as soon as possible! https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/workshop-on-modern-applications-of-control-theory-and-reinforcement-learning/ This workshop is part of a research semester programme on Control Theory and Reinforcement Learning at CWI, Amsterdam, NL <https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/control-theory-and-reinforcement/>. It follows a Spring School (17-21 March) <https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/spring-school-control-theory-and-reinforcement-learning/> and a Workshop on Themes (24-25 March) <https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/workshop-themes-across-control-and-reinforcement-learning/>, and is followed by an upcoming Workshop on Theory (19-20 June) <https://www.cwi.nl/en/events/cwi-research-semester-programmes/workshop-on-theory-of-control-and-reinforcement-learning/> .
