Trajectory Optimization Algorithms

This package contains trajectory optimization algorithms meant predominantly for continuous control taks (simulated with MuJoCo).

Installation

The main package dependencies are MuJoCo and mjrl. See setup-instructions to get a working conda environment and setup dependencies.

After mujoco_py has been installed, the package can be used by either adding to path as:

export PYTHONPATH=<path/to/trajopt>$PYTHONPATH

or through the pip install module

$ cd trajopt
$ pip install -e .

The tricky part of the installation is likely to be mujoco_py. Please see instructions and known issues for help.

API and example usage

The algorithms assume an environment abstraction similar to OpenAI gym, but requires two additional functions to be able to run the algorithms provided here.

Example Usage

See this directory for illustrative examples: trajopt/examples.
