Entropie-speeltuin

Als je het concept entropie nog niet eerder bent tegengekomen, is het handig om het met een voorbeeld te verkennen.

Je bouwt een functie plot_probabilities die een lijst met waarschijnlijkheden als argument neemt. De functie berekent de entropie en plot de waarschijnlijkheden in een staafdiagram.

Als je met entropie speelt, zul je merken dat de entropie hoger is wanneer de kansverdeling over veel acties is uitgesmeerd.

De klasse torch.distribution.Categorical is in je omgeving geladen als Categorical; deze klasse heeft een methode, .entropy(), die de entropie in nats teruggeeft.

Discover how deep reinforcement learning improves upon traditional Reinforcement Learning while studying and implementing your first Deep Q Learning algorithm.

Exercise 1: Introduction to deep reinforcement learning Exercise 2: Environment and neural network setup Exercise 3: DRL training loop Exercise 4: Introduction to deep Q learning Exercise 5: Deep learning and DQN Exercise 6: The Q-Network architecture Exercise 7: Instantiating the Q-Network Exercise 8: The barebone DQN algorithm Exercise 9: Barebone DQN action selection Exercise 10: Barebone DQN loss function Exercise 11: Training the barebone DQN

Dive into Deep Q-learning by implementing the original DQN algorithm, featuring Experience Replay, epsilon-greediness and fixed Q-targets. Beyond DQN, you will then explore two fascinating extensions that improve the performance and stability of Deep Q-learning: Double DQN and Prioritized Experience Replay.

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.
