What is the most exciting AI news in recent years? AlphaGo!
What are key techniques for AlphaGo? Deep learning and reinforcement learning (RL)!
What are application areas for deep RL? A lot! In fact, besides games, deep RL has been making tremendous achievements in diverse areas like recommender systems and robotics.
In this talk, we will introduce deep reinforcement learning, present several applications, and discuss issues and potential solutions for successfully applying deep RL in real life scenarios.
