## Conceptual overview

7+
Reinforcement learning is a learning framework based on accumulated experience. In this paradigm, an agent is learning by iteracting with an environment
8+
without (to a large extent) any supervision. The following image schematically describes the reinforcement learning framework

12+
The framework has been use successfully to many recent advances in corntol, robotics, games and elsewhere.
13+
14+
Given that data anonymity is essentially an optimization problem; between data utility and privacy, in this repository we try
15+
to use the reinforcement learning paradigm in order to train agents to perform this optimization for us. The following image
16+
places this into a persepctive
