Keras Reinforcement Learning Projects

By: Giuseppe Ciaburro

Overview of this book

Reinforcement learning has evolved a lot in the last couple of years and proven to be a successful technique in building smart and intelligent AI networks. Keras Reinforcement Learning Projects installs human-level performance into your applications using algorithms and techniques of reinforcement learning, coupled with Keras, a faster experimental library. The book begins with getting you up and running with the concepts of reinforcement learning using Keras. You’ll learn how to simulate a random walk using Markov chains and select the best portfolio using dynamic programming (DP) and Python. You’ll also explore projects such as forecasting stock prices using Monte Carlo methods, delivering vehicle routing application using Temporal Distance (TD) learning algorithms, and balancing a Rotating Mechanical System using Markov decision processes. Once you’ve understood the basics, you’ll move on to Modeling of a Segway, running a robot control system using deep reinforcement learning, and building a handwritten digit recognition model in Python using an image dataset. Finally, you’ll excel in playing the board game Go with the help of Q-Learning and reinforcement learning algorithms. By the end of this book, you’ll not only have developed hands-on training on concepts, algorithms, and techniques of reinforcement learning but also be all set to explore the world of AI.

Amazon stock price prediction using Python

The stock market forecast has always been a very popular topic: this is because stock market trends involve a truly impressive turnover. The interest that this topic arouses in public opinion is clearly linked to the opportunity to get rich through good forecasts of a stock market title. A positive difference between the purchased stock price and that of the sold stock price entails a gain on the part of the investor. But, as we know, the performance of the stock market depends on multiple factors. In this section, we'll see how Monte Carlo methods can be applied to predict the future stock price of a very popular company: I refer to Amazon, the US e-commerce company, based in Seattle, Washington, which is the largest internet company in the world.

Amazon has been listed on Wall Street since 1997 with the AMZN symbol; its title is...
