A nice cute example is elevator control that is also in rich Sutton's book which is a great book by the way.
The best things said about it
I mean that's really surprising to me when i first read that and then enriched rich sutton's book on the matter.
Why people recommend it
Reinforcement Learning by Rich Sutton serves as a definitive textbook on the machine learning approach where agents learn to make decisions by taking actions to maximize cumulative reward. The book was highlighted in multiple episodes of the Lex Fridman Podcast. During an episode featuring guest Michael Littman, the host recalled his initial surprise upon reading about specific algorithms and concepts detailed in Rich Sutton's foundational work on the matter. In a separate conversation with guest Marcus Hutter, the discussion turned to specific illustrations of these computational principles, with Hutter explicitly referring to a classic elevator control example featured inside Rich Sutton's book and praising the volume as a great read. These recurring podcast mentions highlight the text's enduring status as an indispensable resource for researchers, students, and practitioners seeking to understand the mathematical foundations and practical applications of reinforcement learning algorithms across various complex technological domains.
