Lab Exercise:
@KatharineCodes @JavaFXpert
- Select the Circle dataset icon and only the X1 & X2 features.
- Using a total of six neurons allocated among any number of hidden layers, modify the hyperparameters in such a way that minimizes the number of Epochs required to make the Test loss and Training loss each <= 0.009
- Tweet screenshot with your lowest Epochs result using #MachineLearningExposed and presenters' Twitter IDs

Learning to Navigate a Grid World with Q-Learning
@KatharineCodes @JavaFXpert
Rules of this Grid World
- Agent may move left, right, up, or down (actions)
- Reward is 0 for each move
- Reward is 5 for reaching top right corner (terminal state)
- Agent can't move into a wall or off-grid
- Agent doesn't have a model of the grid world. It must discover as it interacts.
Challenge: Given that there is only one state that gives a reward, how can the agent work out what actions will get it to the reward?
(AKA the credit assignment problem)
Goal of an episode is to maximize total reward
@KatharineCodes @JavaFXpert
This Grid World's MDP (Markov Decision Process)
In this example, all actions are deterministic
@KatharineCodes @JavaFXpert
Agent learns optimal policy from interactions with the environment (s, a, r, s')
