Hands-on Reinforcement Learning with TensorFlow [Video]

Overview of this book

<p>You’ve probably heard of Deepmind’s AI playing games and getting really good at playing them (like AlphaGo beating the Go world champion). Such agents are built with the help of a paradigm of machine learning called “Reinforcement Learning” (RL).</p> <p>In this course, you’ll walk through different approaches to RL. You’ll move from a simple Q-learning to a more complex, deep RL architecture and implement your algorithms using Tensorflow’s Python API. You’ll be training your agents on two different games in a number of complex scenarios to make them more intelligent and perceptive.<br />By the end of this course, you’ll be able to implement RL-based solutions in your projects from scratch using Tensorflow and Python.</p> <p>The code bundle for this video course is available at:&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacktPublishing/-Hands-on-Reinforcement-Learning-with-TensorFlow" target="_blank">https://github.com/PacktPublishing/-Hands-on-Reinforcement-Learning-with-TensorFlow</a></p> <h1>Style and Approach</h1> <p>A practical guide that demonstrates how to create smart agents by implementing different Reinforcement Learning techniques with Python and Tensorflow, and how to easily improve their performance in different games and environments.</p>

Introduction to Reinforcement Learning
The aim of the video is to familiarize viewers with reinforcement learning and common terminologies used in the reinforcement learning world with the help of real-life analogies. - Understand the typical reinforcement learning setup - Understand terminologies using a couple of real world analogies - Draw similarities with the analogies and concluding what exactly is reinforcement learning
