Reinforcement Learning

A type of machine learning focused on teaching agents to make decisions by maximizing cumulative rewards.

Expanded definition

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is an area of machine learning where an agent learns to make decisions by interacting with an environment to achieve a specific goal. The agent receives feedback in the form of rewards or penalties based on its actions, which guides it in improving its decision-making over time. The aim is to develop a policy that maximizes the expected cumulative reward, resulting in optimal behavior in various situations.
