Project Title:Reinforcement Learning-Based Game Bot

Objective:

To build an intelligent game-playing bot that learns optimal strategies through reinforcement learning (RL), improving its performance over time by interacting with the game environment.

Summary:

This project involves creating a game-playing bot using reinforcement learning, a type of machine learning where an agent learns by interacting with an environment and receiving rewards or penalties. The bot starts without any prior knowledge and learns to play the game better over time by trial and error.

Popular RL algorithms such as Q-Learning, Deep Q-Networks (DQN), or Policy Gradient methods can be used. The bot can be trained on simple games like Tic-Tac-Toe, Snake, Flappy Bird, or GridWorld environments, and then tested to evaluate its performance against human players or other bots.

The project teaches concepts like exploration vs. exploitation, reward shaping, and training stability, while offering a fun and interactive way to learn reinforcement learning.

Key Steps:

Choose a Game Environment – Use simple games or environments (OpenAI Gym, PyGame, custom environments).

Define the RL Framework – Set up states, actions, rewards, and transitions.

Train the Agent – Apply RL algorithms like Q-Learning or DQN.

Test and Improve – Evaluate performance and fine-tune hyperparameters.

Technologies Used:

Python

TensorFlow / PyTorch

OpenAI Gym or custom game environments

Numpy, Matplotlib for plotting performance

Applications:

Game AI development
