The double-ended queue

Familiarize yourself the with Double-Ended Queue data structure which you will use as replay buffer.

The Double Ended Queue, or deque is a limited capacity queue which 'forgets' its oldest items as new items are added over time. This provides a well suited abstraction to support the replay buffer.

Learn about the foundational concepts of policy gradient methods found in DRL. You will begin with the policy gradient theorem, which forms the basis for these methods. Then, you will implement the REINFORCE algorithm, a powerful approach to learning policies. The chapter will then guide you through Actor-Critic methods, focusing on the Advantage Actor-Critic (A2C) algorithm, which combines the strengths of both policy gradient and value-based methods to enhance learning efficiency and stability.

Explore Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) for robust DRL performance. Next, you will examine using an entropy bonus in PPO, which encourages exploration by preventing premature convergence to deterministic policies. You'll also learn about batch updates in policy gradient methods. Finally, you will learn about hyperparameter optimization with Optuna, a powerful tool for optimizing performance in your DRL models.
