Deep Reinforcement Learning with Python

Course Code: C1045

What's This Course About

Step into the cutting-edge domain of Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) with our tailored program at Tertiary Courses. Beginning with the foundational concepts of Markov Decision Process (MDP) and Reinforcement Learning (RL), we ensure a profound understanding, setting the stage for more advanced subjects. With hands-on exercises, participants will grasp RL dynamics using prominent tools like OpenAI Gym and Stable Baselines, paving the way to practical application and comprehension.

Venturing further, the course covers the intricacies of algorithms such as Q-Learning, DQN, Policy Gradient, A2C, A3C, and PPO. Custom Policy Networks on Stable Baselines enrich the learning experience, allowing participants to tweak and adapt as per specific requirements. Concluding with a brief insight into Model-based RL, this program encapsulates the broad spectrum of DRL, ensuring participants are well-equipped to handle real-world AI challenges.
