Deep Learning Training Team Member:• In an aim to improve the comprehension of learning a new framework, I adapted an introduction to PyTorch workshop to help demystify deep learning concepts for students. This was done by creating a Jupyter Notebook that eased them into the framework and training models with it. This new workshop is now a part of DeepNeuron's training material utilised to teach the broader community about Deep Learning.• Taught deep learning theory and assisted students at workshops.• Created an Introduction to Reinforcement Learning series.Reinforcement Learning Checkers Project:• Developing a reinforcement learning (RL) agent to play draughts against a human opponent, utilising a custom hardware interface to physically move pieces on the board, requiring expertise in electronics, circuit design, and 3D printing techniques.• Experimenting with various algorithms and models, including DQNs, MCTS, and Actor-Critic, to enhance the RL agent's performance, incorporating computer vision for board state analysis and circle segmentation.
