Additional Topics and Recent Advances

This being the last chapter of the book covers some of the topics that I think you should be aware of at a high level. I keep the discussion at a conceptual level with links to the relevant research/academic papers, where applicable. You may use these references to extend your knowledge horizon based on your individual interest area in the field of RL. Unlike previous chapters, you will not always find the detailed pseudocode or actual code implementations. This has been done on purpose to provide a survey of some emerging areas and new advances. You should use this chapter to get a 30,000-foot understanding of different topics. Based on your specific interests, you are advised to dive deep into specific topics using the references given here as a starting point.
