PyTorch implementation of soft actor critic

Description

---

Reimplementation of Soft Actor-Critic Algorithms and Applications and a deterministic variant of SAC from Soft Actor-Critic: Off-Policy Maximum Entropy Deep Reinforcement Learning with a Stochastic Actor.

Added another branch for Soft Actor-Critic: Off-Policy Maximum Entropy Deep Reinforcement Learning with a Stochastic Actor -> SAC_V

Requirements

---

• mujoco-py
• TensorboardX
• PyTorch

Default Arguments and Usage

Usage

usage: main.py [-h] [--env-name ENV_NAME] [--policy POLICY] [--eval EVAL]
               [--gamma G] [--tau G] [--lr G] [--alpha G]
               [--automatic_entropy_tuning G] [--seed N] [--batch_size N]
               [--num_steps N] [--hidden_size N] [--updates_per_step N]
               [--start_steps N] [--target_update_interval N]
               [--replay_size N] [--cuda]

(Note: There is no need for setting Temperature(--alpha) if --automatic_entropy_tuning is True.)

For SAC :

python main.py --env-name Humanoid-v2 --aplha 0.05

For SAC (Hard Update):

python main.py --env-name Humanoid-v2 --alpha 0.05 --tau 1 --target_update_interval 1000

For SAC (Deterministic, Hard Update):

python main.py --env-name Humanoid-v2 --policy Deterministic --tau 1 --target_update_interval 1000
