Apply Machine Thinking to a Human Problem

In the first chapter, the MDP reinforcement program produced a result as an output matrix. In Chapter 2, Think Like a Machine, the McCulloch-Pitts system of neurons produced an input reward matrix.

Reliable decisions are made with reliable evaluations. The goal of this chapter is to introduce measurement methods.

The key function of human intelligence, decision-making, relies on the ability to evaluate a situation. No decision can be made without measuring the pros and cons and factoring the parameters.
