Panel: The future of reinforcement learning
This panel brings together a variety of experts from industry and academia to discuss the question, what is the future of reinforcement learning? Reinforcement learning is an important research area in AI currently, and it has been an important research area in human and animal behavior since at least the middle of the 20th century. More recently, reinforcement learning research has been energized by a series of positive results, often based on deep models, in areas such as personalization and game-playing. However, there remain a wide variety of open questions, both theoretical and practical. We’ll gather expert perspectives on which open questions are the most important as well as where the likely answers might come from.
