As someone who is doing his bachelor thesis on Reinforcement Learning this is some useful information.

OT (but not really) question: does anyone here use Reinforcement Learning techniques at work? For the thesis I am working on black-box optimization of 2 variable functions with Reinforcement Learning (and comparing it with Bayesian Optimization techniques).

As someone else suggested the Sutton & Barto book is really great knowledge but I would also like to suggest these lessons (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pWv7GOvuf0) by David Silver (who worked on AlphaGo)
