Deep Reinforcement Learning: Write Bots in Python that can Play Games
Deep Reinforcement Learning: Write Bots in Python that can Play Games
About the Book
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is an exciting new field of machine learning, in which bots learn by playing games.
It is different from traditional machine learning (supervised or unsupervised) in that there are no training samples with expected outputs.
In this book, we'll learn RL by programming bots that can play games. We will go over basic Q learning techniques, as well as Deep Reinforcement Learning, that uses Neural Networks.
My book Build Your Own Neural Network is a per-requisite.
