Modeling Agents with Probabilistic Programs
by Owain Evans, et al. - AgentModels.org
This book describes and implements models of rational agents for (PO)MDPs and Reinforcement Learning. One motivation is to create richer models of human planning, which capture human biases. The book assumes basic programming experience.
