Q-Learning

Q-learning is a widely used reinforcement learning algorithm that enables an agent to learn optimal actions through interaction with its environment. It operates on the principle of learning a policy that maximizes cumulative rewards by estimating the value of taking specific actions in given states. The algorithm utilizes a Q-table to store these values, which are updated iteratively based on the agent’s experiences. Q-learning is particularly effective for problems where the environment can be modeled as a Markov Decision Process, making it suitable for various applications, including game playing and robotics. Its off-policy nature allows for flexibility in learning from different strategies.
