# Deep Learning Indaba, Ideathhon 2024.
This repo contains all the codes and resources for our winning project at the Deep Learning Ideathhon 2024. The goal of this project is to publish a research paper on the topic of "Transparent Decision-Making for Electric Vehicle Routing: Integrating DRL, GNN, and xAI".

## An intro to EVRP

## Illustration of Reinforcement Learning

## Methodology overview
The project methodology involves several key steps:


### Project idea :
The project idea is inspired by Dimeth Noucier who did her PhD in the field of electric vehicle routing using deep reinforcement learning. The idea is to enhance the transparency of the decision-making process of the DRL model by integrating explainable AI techniques.


## Research Gap:

## Organization
- Google drive folder to share resources
- Trello board to track progress
- Whatsapp group for communication
- GitHub repository for version control and collaboration
