ALF

Agent Learning Framework (ALF) is a reinforcement learning framework emphasizing on the flexibility of writing complex model architectures. ALF is built on Tensorflow 2.0.

Algorithms

Installation

You can run the following commands to install ALF

git clone https://github.com/HorizonRobotics/alf
cd alf
git submodule update --init --recursive
cd tf_agents
pip install -e .
cd ..
pip install -e .

Examples

All the examples below are trained on a single machine Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-7960X CPU @ 2.80GHz with 32 CPUs and one RTX 2080Ti GPU.

You can train model of the examples using the following command:

python -m alf.bin.train --gin_file=GIN_FILE --root_dir=LOG_DIR

GIN_FILE is the file of gin configuration. You can find sample gin configuration files for different tasks under directory alf/examples. LOG_DIR is the directory when you want to store the training results.

During training, you can use tensorboard to show the progress of training:

tensorboard --logdir=LOG_DIR

After training, you can visualize the trained model using the following command:

python -m alf.bin.play --root_dir=LOG_DIR

A2C

  • Cart pole. The training score took only 30 seconds to reach 200, using 8 environments.

  • Atari games. Need to install python package atari-py for atari game environments. The evaluation score (by taking argmax of the policy) took 1.5 hours to reach 800 on Breakout, using 64 environments.

  • Simple navigation with visual input. Follow the instruction at SocialRobot to install the environment.

PPO

  • Humonoid. Learning to walk using the pybullet Humanoid environment. Need to install python pybullet>=2.5.0 for the environment. The training score took 1 hour 40 minutes to reach 2k, using asynchronous training with 2 actors (192 environments).

ICM

  • Super Mario. Playing Super Mario only using intrinsic reward. Python package gym-retro>=0.7.0 is required for this experiment and also a suitable SuperMarioBros-Nes rom should be obtained and imported (roms are not included in gym-retro). See this doc on how to import roms.
