Abstract-- We propose a model-based reinforcement learning
algorithm for biped walking in which the robot learns to
appropriately place the swing leg. This decision is based on
a learned model of the Poincare map of the periodic walking
pattern. The model maps from a state at the middle of a step
and foot placement to a state at next middle of a step. We
also modify the desired walking cycle frequency based on online
