VISA D Gainful Employment

Prof. Elmar told me to contact the Austrian embassy in Moscow to ask about the “VISA D Gainful Employment”, what are the required documents, and when can I get the visa.

This visa type should allow me to start working immediately without any delay.

RL Simulator

  • Game simulator on Gitlab written in C/C++
    • I should get access to the repository
    • Read the code of the simulator
    • Start applying a basic RL agent on the player
    • with time we should improve the RL algorithms
    • The main idea is to transfer the learned policy in a nonheuristic manner to new environments with different parameters.
    • Start reading about preference learning.
  • Future possibilities:
    • Apply our algorithm on other environments.
    • Apply our algorithm on physical systems.
