1. IntroductionThe continuum manipulator is a bionic, slender super-redundant manipulator that provides superior reach and dexterity capabilities in cluttered environments. However, because of its high nonlinearity, the precise control of a continuum manipulator still remains a significant challenge. Reinforcement learning is a model-free control method and has been used for the control of continuum manipulators.

1. IntroductionPneumatic artificial muscles (PAMs) are mainly made up of braided woven meshes, rubber tubes, and sealed connectors [1]. As a kind of soft actuator, the PAM features a high power density ratio and a large driving force, breaking through the flexibility limitations of the rigid actuator to widely serve as a bionic actuator in robotic fields for underwater tasks [2], elderly care services [3,4], rescues [5], rehabilitation [6,7,8], and other flexible manipulations [9].
