Practical Reinforcement Learning

Practical Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning (RL) is becoming a popular tool for constructing autonomous systems that improve themselves with experience. We will break the RL framework into its core building blocks, and provide you with details of each element. This book is divided into three parts. The first part defines Reinforcement Learning and describes the basics and the Python and Java frameworks, which we are going to use later in the book. The second part discusses learning techniques with basic algorithms such as Temporal Difference, Monte Carlo, and Policy Gradient—all with practical examples. Lastly, in the third part we apply Reinforcement Learning with the most recent and widely used algorithms, via practical applications.
