Deep Reinforcement Learning for Tensorflow 2 Keras

NOTE: Requires tensorflow==2.1.0

What is it?

keras-rl2 implements some state-of-the art deep reinforcement learning algorithms in Python and seamlessly integrates with the deep learning library Keras.

Furthermore, keras-rl2 works with OpenAI Gym out of the box. This means that evaluating and playing around with different algorithms is easy.

Of course you can extend keras-rl2 according to your own needs. You can use built-in Keras callbacks and metrics or define your own. Even more so, it is easy to implement your own environments and even algorithms by simply extending some simple abstract classes. Documentation is available online.

What is included?

As of today, the following algorithms have been implemented:

  • Deep Q Learning (DQN) [1], [2]
  • Double DQN [3]
  • Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) [4]
  • Continuous DQN (CDQN or NAF) [6]
  • Cross-Entropy Method (CEM) [7], [8]
  • Dueling network DQN (Dueling DQN) [9]
  • Deep SARSA [10]
  • Asynchronous Advantage Actor-Critic (A3C) [5]
  • Proximal Policy Optimization Algorithms (PPO) [11]

You can find more information on each agent in the doc.

Installation

  • Install Keras-RL2 from Pypi (recommended):
pip install keras-rl2
  • Install from Github source:
git clone https://github.com/wau/keras-rl2.git
cd keras-rl
python install .

Examples

If you want to run the examples, you'll also have to install:

For atari example you will also need:

  • Pillow: pip install Pillow
  • gym[atari]: Atari module for gym. Use pip install gym[atari]

Once you have installed everything, you can try out a simple example:

python examples/dqn_cartpole.py

This is a very simple example and it should converge relatively quickly, so it's a great way to get started! It also visualizes the game during training, so you can watch it learn. How cool is that?

If you have questions or problems, please file an issue or, even better, fix the problem yourself and submit a pull request!
