Welcome to my reinforcement learning course! ❤️ Let’s walk this beautiful path from the fundamentals to cutting edge reinforcement learning (RL), step-by-step, with coding examples and tutorials in Python, together! This first part covers the bare minimum concept and theory you need to embark on this journey. Then, in each following chapter, we will solve …
Wanna learn with me? 📜 Reinforcement learning is a powerful framework and a family of algorithms you can use to solve many real-world problems. Many call it the third big subdiscipline in ML, together with supervised ML and unsupervised ML. It is actually a well-matured field, that recently got a breed of fresh air coming …
When you create machine learning models in the real world, as opposed to online courses or Kaggle-style competitions, you need to generate the training data yourself. This is the first step in any ML project. And as crucial as it is, it is the one we overlook the most. As a freelance ML engineer, I …
