That sounds really interesting, I was also thinking about using ROS for the simulation, I'm not a ROS expert but do you think that is a good option as e.g. compared to a simple python OpenGL script? There are two points that I think are important, performance: the training is going to consume all resources, so the simulator should not be demanding; easy to install, I think everyone likes to keep the number of dependencies low. Let me know what you think. > Right now, I have build and gone through some tutorials on mlpack. I am trying > to get more familiar with mlpack's codebase.

Sounds good, for this project the ann and RL code is especially important, so taking a closer look at the tests is a good way to get familiar with that part of the codebase. Let me know if I should clarify anything. Thanks, Marcus > On 25. Feb 2018, at 13:13, Vaibhav Jain <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, > My name is Vaibhav Jain.
