TL;DR We introduce DIAMOND (DIffusion As a Model Of eNvironment Dreams), a reinforcement learning agent trained in a diffusion world model.
Quick install to try our pretrained world models using miniconda:
git clone git@github.com:eloialonso/diamond.git cd diamond conda create -n diamond python=3.10 conda activate diamond pip install -r requirements.txt python src/play.py --pretrained
Alternatively, if you do not have miniconda installed you can use python venv:
git clone git@github.com:eloialonso/diamond.git cd diamond python3 -m venv diamond_env source activate ./diamond_env/bin/ pip install -r requirements.txt python src/play.py --pretrained
And press m to take control (the policy is playing by default)!
Warning: Atari ROMs will be downloaded with the dependencies, which means that you acknowledge that you have the license to use them.

⬆️ Try our playable diffusion world models
python src/play.py --pretrainedThen select a game, and world model and policy pretrained on Atari 100k will be downloaded from our repository on Hugging Face Hub 🤗 and cached on your machine.
Some things you might want to try:
- Press
mto change the policy between the agent and human (the policy is playing by default). - Press
↑/↓to change the imagination horizon (default is 50 for playing).
To adjust the sampling parameters (number of denoising steps, stochasticity, order, etc) of the trained diffusion world model, for instance to trade off sampling speed and quality, edit the section world_model_env.diffusion_sampler in the file config/trainer.yaml.
See Visualization for more details about the available commands and options.
⬆️ Launch a training run
To train with the hyperparameters used in the paper, launch:
python src/main.py env.train.id=BreakoutNoFrameskip-v4 common.device=cuda:0This creates a new folder for your run, located in outputs/YYYY-MM-DD/hh-mm-ss/.
To resume a run that crashed, navigate to the fun folder and launch:
./scripts/resume.sh⬆️ Configuration
We use Hydra for configuration management.
All configuration files are located in the config folder:
config/trainer.yaml: main configuration file.config/agent/default.yaml: architecture hyperparameters.config/env/atari.yaml: environment hyperparameters.
You can turn on logging to weights & biases in the wandb section of config/trainer.yaml.
Set training.model_free=true in the file config/trainer.yaml to "unplug" the world model and perform standard model-free reinforcement learning.
⬆️ Visualization
⬆️ Play mode (default)
To visualize your last checkpoint, launch from the run folder:
python src/play.pyBy default, you visualize the policy playing in the world model. To play yourself, or switch to the real environment, use the controls described below.
Controls (play mode)
(Game-specific commands will be printed on start up)
⏎ : reset environment
m : switch controller (policy/human)
↑/↓ : imagination horizon (+1/-1)
←/→ : next environment [world model ←→ real env (test) ←→ real env (train)]
. : pause/unpause
e : step-by-step (when paused)Add -r to toggle "recording mode" (works only in play mode). Every completed episode will be saved in dataset/rec_<env_name>_<controller>. For instance:
dataset/rec_wm_π: Policy playing in world model.dataset/rec_wm_H: Human playing in world model.dataset/rec_test_H: Human playing in test real environment.
You can then use the "dataset mode" described in the next section to replay the stored episodes.
⬆️ Dataset mode (add -d)
In the run folder, to visualize the datasets contained in the dataset subfolder, add -d to switch to "dataset mode":
python src/play.py -dYou can use the controls described below to navigate the datasets and episodes.
Controls (dataset mode)
m : next dataset (if multiple datasets, like recordings, etc)
↑/↓ : next/previous episode
←/→ : next/previous timestep in episodes
PgUp: +10 timesteps
PgDn: -10 timesteps
⏎ : back to first timestep⬆️ Other options, common to play/dataset modes
--fps FPS Target frame rate (default 15).
--size SIZE Window size (default 800).
--no-header Remove header.⬆️ Run folder structure
Each new run is located at outputs/YYYY-MM-DD/hh-mm-ss/. This folder is structured as follows:
outputs/YYYY-MM-DD/hh-mm-ss/
