Enhanced Deep Q-Learning for 2D Self-Driving Cars: Implementation and Evaluation on a Custom Track Environment

ArXi:2402.08780v2 Announce Type: replace This research project presents the implementation of a Deep Q-Learning Network (DQN) for a self-driving car on a 2-dimensional (2D) custom track, with the objective of enhancing the DQN network's performance. It encompasses the development of a custom driving environment using Pygame on a track surrounding the University of Memphis map, as well as the design and implementation of the DQN model. The algorithm utilizes data from 7 sensors installed in the car, which measure the distance between the car and the track.
