Reducing Action Space for Deep Reinforcement Learning via Causal Effect Estimation

Requirements

We test our method with a gpu that can run CUDA 12.0. Then, the simplest way to install all required dependencies is to create an anaconda environment by running:

conda env create -f conda_env.yml

After the installation ends you can activate your environment with:

source activate cee

Instructions

Pre-training: Training N-value network

First, we need to train an N-value network. For example, in the Unlock Pickup environment, run:

cd cee
python min_red/grid_search_minigrid.py

Phase 2: Conduct task training

When the pre-training is complete, add the model to makppo/train.py/Env_mask_dict```

python maskppo/grid_search_minigrid.py

Both of two phases will produce 'log' folder, where all the outputs are going to be stored. The data and lines can be observed in tensorboard.

tensorboard --logdir log

Besides, Operation of the PurePPO algorithm:

python pureppo/grid_search_minigrid.py
