Machine Learning and Atari November 12th, 2024
For my project I was put in the group that is going to be cloning the classic Atari Breakout game, and then using Machine Learning teach an agent to play it and beat humans and possibly other machine learning agents. This was honestly my first choice of a project so I was very excited to be apart of it. To aid in my enjoyment as well our team is also pretty awesome. I feel like all four of us complement the different pieces of the team very well, and contribute nicely to the end goal!
We choose to use Azure DevOps for our tech stack. This is a Microsoft product, so it integrates well with Unity, and Git. In Azure DevOps (ADO) the git piece is called repos, but it acts identical to how a git repo would act, with pushes, pulls, pull requests, etc. Furthermore you can really begin to do some cool stuff with pipelines and integrating deployments into your pipelines. Not to mention it also allows you to create agile style boards to track all the project management side from epics, user stories, bugs, and many more with the pull requests or pushs that fixed or completed those stories! It is honestly a very powerful product!
Well stay tuned for the next installment of using Machine Learning with old school Atari!
