If you are new to the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or machine learning, you might be wondering what reinforcement learning is all about. In simple terms, it is learning through reinforcement. Reinforcement, as you know from general English or psychology, is the act of increasing or strengthening the choice to take a particular action in response to something, because of the perceived benefit of receiving higher rewards for taking that action. We humans are good at learning through reinforcement from a very young age. Those who have kids may be utilizing this fact more often to teach good habits to them. Nevertheless, we will all be able to relate to this, because not so long ago we all went through that phase of life! Say parents reward their kid with chocolate if the kid completes their homework on time after school every day. The kid...

Overview of this book
Many real-world problems can be broken down into tasks that require a series of decisions to be made or actions to be taken. The ability to solve such tasks without a machine being programmed requires a machine to be artificially intelligent and capable of learning to adapt. This book is an easy-to-follow guide to implementing learning algorithms for machine software agents in order to solve discrete or continuous sequential decision making and control tasks.
Hands-On Intelligent Agents with OpenAI Gym takes you through the process of building intelligent agent algorithms using deep reinforcement learning starting from the implementation of the building blocks for configuring, training, logging, visualizing, testing, and monitoring the agent. You will walk through the process of building intelligent agents from scratch to perform a variety of tasks. In the closing chapters, the book provides an overview of the latest learning environments and learning algorithms, along with pointers to more resources that will help you take your deep reinforcement learning skills to the next level.
