About the course

Aim

The course gives an introduction to the field reinforcement learning. The aim is that students should be acquainted with different methods that are used for learning based on feedback.

On completion of the course, you should be able to:

  • identify basic concepts, terminology, theories, models and methods in reinforcement learning
  • develop and systematically test basic methods in reinforcement learning
  • evaluate different reinforcement learning algorithms experimentally as well as interpret and document results of experimental studies
  • have a broad knowledge to be able to read and profit by literature in the area

Content

Foundational course in reinforcement learning, mainly from a computer science perspective. The focus is on introducing the main concepts, techniques, and methods including

  • Value-based, policy-based, and model-based reinforcement learning methods
  • Actor-Critic methods
  • Multi-agent reinforcement learning
  • Multi-objective reinforcement learning
  • Hierarchical reinforcement learning
