Forest Agostinelli gave a Master Class at the 17th International Symposium on Combinatorial Search (SoCS) on Deep Learning, Reinforcement Learning, and Heuristic Search. The one-hour talk covered his research group’s advancements in the combination of machine learning and heuristic search and its application to problems such as the Rubik’s cube, quantum algorithm compilation, and reaction mechanism prediction.
