Literature Review Title: Reinforcement learning in robotics: A survey 
Chapter Title:  Hand-crafted policies 
1. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB001):  Reinforcement learning (RL) methods provide a means for solving optimal control problems when accurate models are unavailable. For many such problems, however, RL alone is impractical and the associated learning problem must be structured somehow to take advantage of prior knowledge. In this paper we examine the use of such knowledge in the form of a stable controller that generates control inputs in parallel with an RL system. The controller acts as a supervisor that not only teaches the RL system about favorable control actions but also protects the learning system from risky behavior. We demonstrate the approach with a simulated robotic arm and a real seven-DOF manipulator. 
2. Abstract of Cited Paper (BIB002):  In this paper the problem of free gait generation and adaptability with reinforcement learning are addressed for a six-legged robot. Using the developed free gait generation algorithm the robot maintains to generate stable gaits according to the commanded velocity. The reinforcement learning scheme incorporated into the free gait generation makes the robot choose more stable states and develop a continuous walking pattern with a larger average stability margin. While walking in normal conditions with no external effects causing unstability, the robot is guaranteed to have stable walk, and the reinforcement learning only improves the stability. The adaptability of the learning scheme is tested also for the abnormal case of deficiency in one of the rear-legs. The robot gets a negative reinforcement when it falls, and a positive reinforcement when a stable transition is achieved. In this way the robot learns to achieve a continuous pattern of stable walk with five legs. The developed free gait generation with reinforcement learning is applied in real-time on the actual robot both for normal walking with different speeds and learning of five-legged walking in the abnormal case.

Literature Review:
When human interaction with the system is not straightforward due to technical reasons or human limitations, a pre-programmed policy can provide alternative demonstrations. For example, a visionbased mobile robot docking task can be learned faster with such a basic behavior than using Q-learning alone, as demonstrated by Martínez-Marín and Duckett (2005) Providing hand-coded, stable initial gaits can significantly help in learning robot locomotion, as shown on a six-legged robot BIB003 as well as on a biped BIB001  . Alternatively, handcrafted policies can yield important corrective actions as prior knowledge that prevent the robot to deviates significantly from the desired behavior and endanger itself. This approach has been applied to adapt the walking patterns of a robot dog to new surfaces  by Q-learning. BIB002 employed a stable controller to teach the robot about favorable actions and avoid risky behavior while learning to move from a start to a goal position.
