We assume you have access to a gpu that can run CUDA 9.2. 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 dbc
To train a DBC agent on the cheetah run
task from image-based observations run:
python train.py \
--domain_name cheetah \
--task_name run \
--encoder_type pixel \
--decoder_type identity \
--action_repeat 4 \
--save_video \
--save_tb \
--work_dir ./log \
--seed 1
This will produce 'log' folder, where all the outputs are going to be stored including train/eval logs, tensorboard blobs, and evaluation episode videos. One can attacha tensorboard to monitor training by running:
tensorboard --logdir log
and opening up tensorboad in your browser.
The console output is also available in a form:
| train | E: 1 | S: 1000 | D: 0.8 s | R: 0.0000 | BR: 0.0000 | ALOSS: 0.0000 | CLOSS: 0.0000 | RLOSS: 0.0000
a training entry decodes as:
train - training episode
E - total number of episodes
S - total number of environment steps
D - duration in seconds to train 1 episode
R - episode reward
BR - average reward of sampled batch
ALOSS - average loss of actor
CLOSS - average loss of critic
RLOSS - average reconstruction loss (only if it is trained from pixels and decoder)
while an evaluation entry:
| eval | S: 0 | ER: 21.1676
which just tells the expected reward ER
evaluating current policy after S
steps. Note that ER
is average evaluation performance over num_eval_episodes
episodes (usually 10).
You can download the Kinetics 400 dataset and grab the driving_car label from the train dataset to replicate our setup. Some instructions for downloading the dataset can be found here: https://github.com/Showmax/kinetics-downloader.
Download CARLA from https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla/releases, e.g.:
- https://carla-releases.s3.eu-west-3.amazonaws.com/Linux/CARLA_0.9.8.tar.gz

Add to your python path:
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/home/rmcallister/code/bisim_metric/CARLA_0.9.8/PythonAPI
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/home/rmcallister/code/bisim_metric/CARLA_0.9.8/PythonAPI/carla
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/home/rmcallister/code/bisim_metric/CARLA_0.9.8/PythonAPI/carla/dist/carla-0.9.8-py3.5-linux-x86_64.egg
and merge the directories.
Then pull altered carla branch files:
git fetch
git checkout carla
Install:
pip install pygame
pip install networkx
Terminal 1:
cd CARLA_0.9.6
bash CarlaUE4.sh -fps 20
Terminal 2:
cd CARLA_0.9.6
# can run expert autopilot (uses privileged game-state information):
python PythonAPI/carla/agents/navigation/carla_env.py
