 will provide a unique platform for researchers from Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning communities to share their research experience towards a uniformed Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) framework in order to allow this important interdisciplinary branch

 allow it to deal more effectively with present applications such as realistic robotics, online streamed data processing that involves actions. Contribution is invited from all deep learning, reinforcement learning and deep reinforcement learning research.<o:p></o:p></p>
