Reward-based selection is a technique used in evolutionary algorithms for selecting potentially useful solutions for recombination. The probability of being selected for an individual is proportional to the cumulative reward, obtained by the individual. The cumulative reward can be computed as a sum of the individual reward and the reward, inherited from parents. (Wikipedia).
Design of Recommendation Systems
Recommender systems have a wide range of applications in the industry with movie, music, and product recommendations across top tech companies like Netflix, Spotify, Amazon, etc. Consumers on the web are increasingly relying on recommendations to purchase the next product on Amazon or watc

Learning model-based planning from scratch
https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.06170 Abstract: Conventional wisdom holds that model-based planning is a powerful approach to sequential decision-making. It is often very challenging in practice, however, because while a model can be used to evaluate a plan, it does not prescribe how to constr
