Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll develop an AI driving agent that can simulate independent driving. Your agent should be able to handle changing lanes, navigating roundabouts, and even self-parking. In order to create this complex agent, you’ll use powerful reinforcement learning techniques including model-based learning, model-free learning, and simulation-search/planning algorithms. Go hands-on to train your AI in AI Gym on Google Colab, improve your model’s performance, and provide professional-level documentation of your work for your colleagues.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book and video resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books and videos for 90 days.
