The Seminar Advanced Deep Reinforcement Learning (SADRL) is a master level course taught at Leiden University. The course is intended as a follow up to the master level courses Reinforcement Learning and Introduction to Deep Learning.
There are up to 12 places available (you will work in groups of 2). Based on experience from previous years we advice you to (only) join when you scored an 8.0 or higher on both master courses Reinforcement Learning and Introduction to Deep Learning.
The goal of the course is to do actual research: re-run a state-of-the-art RL paper and possibly 1) study it in a new application and/or 2) investigate your own novel extension. When you are lucky and your idea actually works you may be able to get a (workshop) publication from the course. The course can also be an excellent starting point for an RL focused master's thesis afterwards.
