Deep Reinforcement Learning with Python

Gain a theoretical understanding of the most popular libraries in deep reinforcement learning (deep RL). This new edition focuses on the latest advances in deep RL using a learn-by-coding approach, allowing readers to assimilate and replicate the latest research in this field.

New agent environments ranging from games, and robotics to finance are explained to help you try different ways to apply reinforcement learning. A chapter on multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) covers how multiple agents can be trained, while another chapter focuses on the widely used deep RL algorithm, proximal policy optimization (PPO). You’ll see how reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) has been used to fine-tune Large Language Models (LLMs) to chat and follow instructions. An example of this is the OpenAI ChatGPT offering human like conversational capabilities.

You’ll also review the steps for using the code on multiple cloud systems and deploying models on platforms such as Hugging Face Hub. The code is in Jupyter Notebook, which can be run on Google Colab, and other similar deep learning cloud platforms, allowing you to tailor the code to your own needs.

Whether it’s for applications in gaming, robotics, or Generative AI, Deep Reinforcement Learning with Python will help keep you ahead of the curve.
