This video gives an overview of the Hindsight Experience Replay (HER) paper by OpenAI. HER is a way to use simple binary rewards instead of shaped rewards in Reinforcement Learning (RF) with improved performance and training time. The core idea of HER is presented in the video. Basically, the core idea is to introduce goal states not existed in the original problem, and train on them. This video is done as part of the course Autnonmously Learning Systems together with awesome Ioana Serban.
