This repository contains code for the tutorial on using Stable Baselines 3 for creating custom environments and custom policies. A blog on the problem statement and the MDP formulation can be found at - https://nish-19.github.io/posts/2023/12/blog-post-6/.

  5. Custom Policy (LSTM Bilinear)

Installation

To install the python libraries using conda execute the following command:

conda env create -f environment.yml

Custom Environment

selection_env.py contains the code for our custom environment. The SelectionEnv class implements the custom environment and it extends from the OpenAI Gymnasium Environment gymnasium.Env

The method reset is used for resetting the environment and initializing the state. The method step executes an action in the current state and returns the next state, reward, and an indication whether the episode is completed or not.

PPO

python ppo.py

The function implement_PPO_algorithm implements the training and the testing procedure of the PPO algorithm.

Custom Feature Extractor

python custom_feature_ppo.py

CustomFeatureExtractor class implements a custom feature extraction layer containing 128 hidden units. RecurrentPolicy implements an LSTM over the features extracted from the state space using CustomFeatureExtractor class.

Custom Policy

python lstm_bilinear_policy.py

LstmBilinearPolicy implements a custom policy which uses an LSTM to extract features from the state representation using the LstmFeaturesExtractor class. The custom policy learns a projecition from the output of the LSTM to the space of the test cases represented using the test case embeddings (using a Transformer model). The methods _get_action_dist_from_latents and forward need to be overridden for implementing this feature.
