About this guide

course is to help you discover this structure, and to learn how to use this structure to develop stronger algorithms and to guide your scientific endeavors into learning-based control. [...] Today, the conversations about reinforcement learning (RL) are loud and passionate enough to drown out almost every other conversation in the room. Ironically, now I am the older professor and I find myself still believing in RL, but not with the complete faith of my youth. There is so much one can understan
