About Marc Stogaitis
I like to work on personal projects on weekends for fun and to learn new things. That's what this site is about.
Machine Learning
- My dad and I have spent the last 22 years learning about machine learning by applying it to different games, focusing on chess. It started out as vb6 & c++. These days, it focuses Java and TensorFlow in python. For example, I've been implementing a version of Alpha Zero for chess.
- Github link with some small experiments applying reinforcement learning to OpenAi Gym (sorry, most of my code is in a private repository but I do try to post interesting bits in the public github from time to time).
