Reinforcement Learning, Intelligent vehicles & Acquiring Data, with Praveen Palanisamy - AI Engineer Microsoft AI + Research, E15

AI is here to solve real world and serious problems. In this episode we explore reinforcement learning applied to the automotive industry. We focus on autonomous systems and do a deep dive into data, challenges, methods to evaluate robustness of a solution, deploying into the real world and the role of simulators in training agents in this space. We're joined by Praveen Palanisamy, Senior AI Engineer in Autonomous Systems with Microsoft AI + Research. Praveen is working on developing the core end-to-end platform and services for real-world AI applications using Simulation, Reinforcement Learning and Machine Teaching. Prior to that, Praveen was an Autonomous Driving AI Researcher at General Motors R&D in Michigan, and he was also with the Robotics Institute, Carnegie Mellon University, where he worked on Autonomous Navigation, Perception and Artificial Intelligence Read more about Praveen's contributions in this space: https://praveenp.com/
