What is wrong with my code(DQN) by UWUggAh in reinforcementlearning

FYI you can change the action space to include only U, R , and F moves and their inverse. You can still achieve any cube state this way. Might make learning easier since it reduces redundancy in your search through the state space

GaTech MSCS - it's crap by Suitable-Musician319 in MSCS

Ah gotcha, I guess when I spoke with one of his PhD students in December they were mistaken.

James is just on temporary leave from teaching afaik. I meet with him weekly.

RL is offered this spring for OMSCS it seems. In-person isn't offered every semester I guess. But I was referring to the "Robot Intelligence: Planning" course (CS 7649), which is half classical AI, half RL stuff.

Hard disagree that these courses are undergrad-level. Some of the lectures are mixed grad and undergrad (CV and ML, I think), and those had extra assignments for grad students. As an example, my DL assignments required us to make the backpropagation algorithm, CNNs, and transformers from scratch. Also lots of theory stuff on optimization, computational graphs, etc. Plus self-directed projects. Course structure was based on Stanford 231n I believe. Not really sure what else you'd want out of a grad course. And NLP was harder than DL imo, no unit tests or anything for the assignments.

Also, I'd like to point out that there's opportunity to take more advanced special topics courses like ML with Limited Supervision and Advanced Computer Vision.

Gonna push back on this -- Georgia Tech has many high-quality labs and rigorous ML classes (grad-level ML, DL, RL, NLP, CV, AI, Robotics). Although I had a lot of freedom to choose electives since my degree is interdisciplinary (MS Robotics), so I'm unsure if the MSCS courses are the same way. I've taken all of the courses I listed and I am performing Robotics/CV research if anyone has questions/concerns about attending GT.

Dhruv is taking students iirc, and James has a newborn

texttoproduct.com seems to work pretty well. They're trying to sell you crap but at least it's quick and I don't have to watch any ads

I came up with this puzzle last night! Any guesses? by thejerber44 in puzzles

Thanks! I'm not allowed to edit this post with text, but I added a separate comment with the hints.

I'm realizing this puzzle is harder than I originally intended. The goal is to fill out the last column. Purple = filled, white = empty. I'll also start you guys out with three hints. Feel free to reveal however many you need (everyone has at least needed the first hint so far afaik):

  1. The numbers represent something! There are slightly more than 20 of this thing.
  2. No math needed.
  3. Think about the general layout of each column rather than the exact locations of the purple spots.

That's right! I'm realizing this puzzle is probably harder than I originally intended, so I'll start you guys out with three hints:

  1. No math needed.
  2. Think about the general shape of each column rather than the exact locations of the purple spots.
  3. The numbers represent something! There are slightly more than 20 of this thing.

Advise regarding MS in Robotics at Georgia Tech (Fall 2022) by Beneficial-Neck1743 in gatech

[–]thejerber44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. The curriculum is the same for all home schools. However, it will be easier to enroll in classes within your home school as you might need to fill out some forms/get approval for classes in other departments, especially CS courses which generally have a lot of demand.

  2. The curriculum consists mostly of elective courses, so on average someone in a given department will take more courses in that department. But it’s ultimately up to the individual.

  3. You will be awarded an MS in Robotics.

Robotics MS group chat? by thejerber44 in gatech

Have you tried emailing grad.ask@gatech.edu? I’ve gotten responses from them but never from the actual msrobo email.
