dqn-hfo

This is an continuous action deep reinforcement learning agent for the RoboCup 2D domain. The domain can be found and downloaded from https://github.com/mhauskn/HFO.

This repo is designed to work with a specific version of Caffe (commit 2ef584785c8ade90260eb117f189146364494183) with the following minor changes:

Installation

1. First install the correct version of Caffe:
2. git clone https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git
3. cd caffe && git checkout 2ef584785c8ade90260eb117f189146364494183
4. Apply the changes to solver listed above
5. Follow installation instructions at https://github.com/BVLC/caffe
6. Next install HFO:
7. git clone https://github.com/LARG/HFO.git
8. Follow installation instructions at https://github.com/LARG/HFO
9. Now we are ready to install dqn-hfo:
10. git clone https://github.com/mhauskn/dqn-hfo.git
11. cd dqn-hfo && mkdir build && cd build
12. cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCAFFE_ROOT_DIR=/u/mhauskn/projects/caffe/ -DHFO_ROOT_DIR=/u/mhauskn/projects/HFO/ .. You will have to change the paths to point to your installation of caffe and HFO
13. make -j4
14. Run a test job: mkdir state && ./bin/dqn -save state/test -alsologtostderr

Errors

Cannot find cublas_v2.h:

device_alternate.hpp:34:23: fatal error: cublas_v2.h: No such file or directory
 #include <cublas_v2.h>
                       ^
compilation terminated.

Solution: Include your Cuda path in the installation:

1. locate cublas_v2.h -- this should give you the path to your cuda installation
2. export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/your/cuda/path:$CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH

Cannot find caffe.pb.h:

caffe/include/caffe/blob.hpp:9:34: fatal error: caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h:
No such file or directory
 #include "caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h"
                                  ^
compilation terminated.

Solution: Symlink the built proto files.

1. cd your_caffe_dir/include/caffe
2. ln -s ../../.build_release/src/caffe/proto/ .
