Reinforcement Learning in the Context of Robotics
Months ago, I came across this video of a robot hand rotating a cube (in all 3D) to achieve specific configurations of that cube. This is extremely difficult - the robot has 20 degrees of freedom! This got me interested in the idea of reinforcement learning, a framework that allows the development of agents for a wide variety of problems. Luckily, this coincided with OpenAI releasing the fantastic Spinning Up in Deep RL guide, written by Josh Achiam, a Ph....
