Dynamic Programming and Reinforcement Learning (A.Y. 2023/24)

How the exam works

• The exam consists in a project work and an oral exam.

• Detailed information about the Winter exam session.

Project work

• The project work allows students to apply the methodologies studied in the course to real world problems.

• Students are responsible for finding problems of interest and solve them by using DP and RL techniques.

• The outcome of the project work is

  • a pdf file containing the problem formulation;

  • a Jupyter Notebook, containing the developed code and a brief discussion about the obtained results.

• The project work can be carried out individually or in group (2 students per group).

Oral exam

• The oral exam includes a discussion about the project work and questions about the theory.

• The discussion about the project work aims at verifying that students have correctly applied the studied methodologies and have correctly interpreted the obtained results.

• Theoretical questions aim at verifying that students have acquired the basic notions of DP and RL.
