This foundational course on Q-Learning equips you with the essential knowledge to understand reinforcement learning concepts and apply them in real-world AI scenarios. Learn the fundamentals of Q-Learning, including Q-values, rewards, episodes, temporal difference, and the exploration vs. exploitation trade-off. Progress to applying Q-Learning by determining Q-values and guiding agent decision-making. Gain practical skills through step-by-step guided demos, where you’ll implement Q-Learning and see how agents optimize their actions in environments like robotics, gaming, and intelligent systems. Build the confidence to design adaptive AI models that learn and improve over time.
