Apparently, not knowing what “unc” means is very unc.

Had an amazing time at my 20 year reunion! My roommates/friends visited. We rented an Airbnb, played board games, and reminisced about various classes/activities. I love how old jokes immediately resurface when you meet up with old friends ❤️ @RoseHulman

Anyone need some #math on their Tuesday? 🧮 In my latest #ReinforcementLearning blog post, I cover Generalized Advantage Estimation (GAE): how λ-weighting blends TD and Monte Carlo advantage estimates, and how rollout buffer length affects it in practice. #AI #MachineLearning ⬇️

The balance bot is a great place to with #ReinforcementLearning. Even though it’s easily solved with other methods (such as PID loops), you can watch the agent quickly improve in simulation, even if you only use a CPU. #robotics #AI #MachineLearning
