Going Pro with Artificial Brains – Deep Q-Learning

This next AI model is fantastic, because it is the first AI model that is really inspired by human intelligence. I hope you're ready to go pro on the next exciting step in your AI journey; this book is not only a crash course on AI, but also an introduction to deep learning.

Today, some of the top AI models integrate deep learning. They form a new branch of AI called deep Reinforcement Learning. The model we'll cover in this chapter belongs to that branch, and is called deep Q-learning. You already know what Q-learning is all about, but you might not know anything about deep learning and Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs); we'll start with them. Of course, if you are an expert in deep learning, you can skip the first sections of this chapter, but consider that a little refresher never hurt anyone.

Before we start going through the theory, you'll begin with real, working code written in...
