A Policy-Gradient algorithm that solves Contextual Bandit problems.

ContextualPolicy.ipynb

can anyone explain to me why we do not use softmax instead of sigmoid? and also why we don't use bias?(I tried both and it wouldn't work)

@lipixun do you know the answer to my question? it would really help me thanks

@pooriaPoorsarvi as seen above we already got the responsible_weight variable, now we are getting the negative
Log likelihood to optimize for the maxium (tf only can optimize) no need to consider every other classes

Instead of using slim, can use tf as:
state_in_OH = tf.one_hot(self.state_in, s_size)
output = tf.layers.dense(state_in_OH, a_size, tf.nn.sigmoid, use_bias=False, kernel_initializer = tf.ones_initializer())

Thanks Arthur! this is helpful tutorial for beginers like me. Here is tensorflow 2 implementation may be helpful for someone

Thanks for the implementation. I wonder how is the implementation a policy network? I don't see policy gradient is used.
