- Present
See projectThe goal of this project was to develop all Dynamic Programming and Reinforcement Learning algorithms from scratch (i.e., with no use of standard libraries, except for basic numpy and scipy tools). The "develop from scratch" goal was motivated by educational purposes - students learning this topic can understand the concepts thoroughly only when they develop and work with code developed from scratch. I teach courses on this topic to a variety of student backgrounds, and each such course is big…

I teach courses on this topic to a variety of student backgrounds, and each such course is big on precise programming implementations of the techniques/algorithms.
