| Summary, etc |
Reinforcement learning (RL) is a field of artificial intelligence (AI) used to create self-learning, autonomous agents. Building on a strong theoretical foundation, this book takes a practical approach, using examples inspired by real-world industry problems to teach you state-of-the-art RL.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Starting with bandit problems, Markov decision processes, and dynamic programming, the book provides an in-depth review of classical RL techniques, including Monte Carlo methods and temporal-difference learning. After that, you will learn about deep Q-learning, policy gradient algorithms, actor-critic methods, model-based methods, and multi-agent reinforcement learning. Then, you'll be introduced to some of the key approaches behind the most successful RL implementations, such as domain randomisation and curiosity-driven learning.<br/><br/><br/><br/>As you advance, you'll explore many novel algorithms and their advanced implementations using modern Python libraries such as TensorFlow and Ray's RLlib. You'll also learn how to implement RL across robotics, supply chain management, marketing, finance, smart cities, and cybersecurity, while assessing trade-offs and avoiding common pitfalls.<br/><br/><br/><br/>By the end of this book, you'll have mastered how to train and deploy your own RL agents for solving RL problems.<br/><br/><br/><br/>What You Will Learn:<br/><br/>Model and solve complex sequential decision-making problems using RL<br/>Develop a solid understanding of how state-of-the-art RL methods work<br/>Use Python and TensorFlow to code RL algorithms from scratch<br/>Parallelise and scale up your RL implementations using Ray's RLlib package<br/>Get in-depth knowledge of a wide variety of RL topics<br/>Understand the trade-offs between different RL approaches<br/>Discover and address the challenges of implementing RL in the real world |
