CS 285 at UC Berkeley
Deep Reinforcement Learning
Lectures: Mon/Wed 10-11:30 a.m., Soda Hall, Room 306
Lectures will be streamed and recorded. The course is not being offered as an online course, and the videos are provided only for your personal informational and entertainment purposes. They are not part of any course requirement or degree-bearing university program.
Piazza is the preferred platform to communicate with the instructors. However, if for some reason you wish to contact the course staff by email, use the following email address: cs285fall2019@googlegroups.com.
