If you walk down the street shouting out the names of every object you see — garbage truck! bicyclist! sycamore tree! — most people would not conclude you are smart. But if you go through an obstacle ...

At the core of reinforcement learning is the concept that the optimal behavior or action is reinforced by a positive reward. Similar to toddlers learning how to walk who adjust actions based on the ...

Progress in self-­driving cars and other forms of automation will slow dramatically unless machines can hone skills through experience. Inside a simple computer simulation, a group of self-driving ...
