immediate and future rewards. The lecture focuses on Q-learning as a simple yet powerful RL algorithm, explaining the creation of a Q-table, the application of the Bellman Equation, and the significance of key parameters such as learning rate and discount factor. Additionally, the exploration-exploitation tradeoff is introduced, with an explanation of how the "ϵ-greedy policy" can effectively balance exploration and exploitation. To consolidate these challenging concepts, the lecture concludes with a hands-on example using Q-learning to solve a maze problem. This practical exercise demonstrates how RL can find the shortest path from a start to a goal point while avoiding obstacles, showcasing RL's

The TA-to-studentratio is approximately 1:30, with online guidance for front-end design and offline guidance for SoCinternships. TAs provide key knowledge node guidance and encourage independent reflection.

The dataset for this research study was the responsescollected from the UPHEME survey. The focus of this study was on Q.5.2 only which was “Canyou think about an example of hidden curriculum you experienced in engineering? Brieflyexplain the situation and the emotions you had in that situation”. The total number ofresponses to the survey was 961 out of which 859 participants responded to Q.5.2. After datacleaning, the final number of emotional responses for Q.5.2. in UPHEME was 582.Methodology & MethodsThis study uses a pragmatist research paradigm by using NLP models to quantify

It was crucial for the two meter bars to be perfectly aligned asthere needs to be one-dimensional heat flow throughout the whole apparatus. With closed-foaminsulation, there was no way to ensure this condition. It was possible that once pressure wasapplied, there might have been a slight misalignment, and even a minor misalignment couldbring air gaps into the system, making the data inaccurate.
