Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a dynamic field where agents learn optimal strategies through interaction with an environment. This tutorial dives into advanced concepts and techniques to elevate your understanding.
🔍 Key Topics Covered
- Deep Q-Networks (DQN)
- Combines Q-learning with deep neural networks for high-dimensional state spaces.
- Deep Q-Network
- Policy Gradients
- Directly optimizes policies using gradient ascent.
- Suitable for continuous action spaces.
- Actor-Critic Methods
- Balances exploration and exploitation with actor and critic networks.
- Actor-Critic Architecture
- Multi-Agent Systems
- Collaborative or competitive learning in environments with multiple agents.
- Explore multi-agent RL basics for foundational concepts.
🧠 Advanced Techniques
- Experience Replay
- Stores past experiences to break correlation in training data.
- Target Networks
- Stabilizes training by using a separate network for target value estimation.
- Distributional RL
- Models the full distribution of returns instead of just their expectations.
- Meta-RL
- Enables agents to learn how to learn across tasks.
