Performance

We have tested each algorithm on some of the following environments.

• PongNoFrameskip-v4
• LunarLanderContinuous-v2
• LunarLander_v2
• Reacher-v2

❗Please note that this won't be frequently updated.

PongNoFrameskip-v4

RainbowIQN learns the game incredibly fast! It accomplishes the perfect score (21) within 100 episodes! The idea of RainbowIQN is roughly suggested from W. Dabney et al..

See W&B Log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 4248057)

RainbowIQN with ResNet's performance and learning speed were similar to those of RainbowIQN. Also we confirmed that R2D1 (w/ Dueling, PER) converges well in the Pong enviornment, though not as fast as RainbowIQN (in terms of update step).

Although we were only able to test Ape-X DQN (w/ Dueling) with 4 workers due to limitations to computing power, we observed a significant speed-up in carrying out update steps (with batch size 512). Ape-X DQN learns Pong game in about 2 hours, compared to 4 hours for serial Dueling DQN.

See W&B Log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 9e897ad)

LunarLander-v2 / LunarLanderContinuous-v2

We used these environments just for a quick verification of each algorithm, so some of experiments may not show the best performance.

👇 Click the following lines to see the figures.

LunarLander-v2: RainbowDQN, RainbowDQfD, R2D1

See W&B log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 9e897ad) 

LunarLanderContinuous-v2: A2C, PPO, DDPG, TD3, SAC

See W&B log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 9e897ad) 

LunarLanderContinuous-v2: DDPG, DDPGfD, BC-DDPG

See W&B log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 9e897ad) 

LunarLanderContinuous-v2: SAC, SACfD, BC-SAC

See W&B log for more details. (The performance is measured on the commit 9e897ad) 

Reacher-v2

We reproduced the performance of DDPG, TD3, and SAC on Reacher-v2 (Mujoco). They reach the score around -3.5 to -4.5.

👇 Click the following the line to see the figures.

Reacher-v2: DDPG, TD3, SAC

See [W&B Log](https://app.wandb.ai/medipixel_rl/reacher-v2/reports?view=curt-park%2FBaselines%20%23158) for more details. 

Getting started

Prerequisites

• This repository is tested on Anaconda virtual environment with python 3.6.1+

  $ conda create -n rl_algorithms python=3.6.9
  $ conda activate rl_algorithms

• In order to run Mujoco environments (e.g. Reacher-v2), you need to acquire Mujoco license.

Installation

First, clone the repository.

git clone https://github.com/medipixel/rl_algorithms.git
cd rl_algorithms

For users

Install packages required to execute the code. It includes python setup.py install. Just type:

make dep

For developers

If you want to modify code you should configure formatting and linting settings. It automatically runs formatting and linting when you commit the code. Contrary to make dep command, it includes python setup.py develop. Just type:

make dev

After having done make dev, you can validate the code by the following commands.

make format  # for formatting
make test  # for linting

Usages

You can train or test algorithm on env_name if configs/env_name/algorithm.py exists. (configs/env_name/algorithm.py contains hyper-parameters)

python run_env_name.py --cfg-path <config-path>

e.g. running soft actor-critic on LunarLanderContinuous-v2.

python run_lunarlander_continuous_v2.py --cfg-path ./configs/lunarlander_continuous_v2/sac.py <other-options>

e.g. running a custom agent, if you have written your own configs: configs/env_name/ddpg-custom.py.

python run_env_name.py --cfg-path ./configs/lunarlander_continuous_v2/ddpg-custom.py

You will see the agent run with hyper parameter and model settings you configured.

Arguments for run-files

In addition, there are various argument settings for running algorithms. If you check the options to run file you should command

python <run-file> -h

• --test
  • Start test mode (no training).
• --off-render
  • Turn off rendering.
• --log
  • Turn on logging using W&B.
• --seed <int>
  • Set random seed.
• --save-period <int>
  • Set saving period of model and optimizer parameters.
• --max-episode-steps <int>
  • Set maximum episode step number of the environment. If the number is less than or equal to 0, it uses the default maximum step number of the environment.
• --episode-num <int>
  • Set the number of episodes for training.
• --render-after <int>
  • Start rendering after the number of episodes.
• --load-from <save-file-path>
  • Load the saved models and optimizers at the beginning.

Arguments for distributed training in run-files

• --max-episode-steps <int>
  • Set maximum update step for learner as a stopping criterion for training loop. If the number is less than or equal to 0, it uses the default maximum step number of the environment.
• --off-worker-render
  • Turn off rendering of individual workers.
• --off-logger-render
  • Turn off rendering of logger tests.
• --worker-verbose
  • Turn on printing episode run info for individual workers

Show feature map with Grad-CAM

You can show a feature map that the trained agent extract using Grad-CAM(Gradient-weighted Class Activation Mapping). Grad-CAM is a way of combining feature maps using the gradient signal, and produce a coarse localization map of the important regions in the image. You can use it by adding Grad-CAM config and --grad-cam flag when you run. For example:

python run_env_name.py --cfg-path <config-path> --test --grad-cam

It can be only used the agent that uses convolutional layers like DQN for Pong environment. You can see feature maps of all the configured convolution layers.

W&B for logging

We use W&B for logging of network parameters and others. For logging, please follow the steps below after requirement installation:

0. Create a wandb account
1. Check your API key in settings, and login wandb on your terminal: $ wandb login API_KEY
2. Initialize wandb: $ wandb init

For more details, read W&B tutorial.
