Human-Level Control through Deep Reinforcement Learning

Tensorflow implementation of Human-Level Control through Deep Reinforcement Learning.

This implementation contains:

1. Deep Q-network and Q-learning
2. Experience replay memory
   • to reduce the correlations between consecutive updates
3. Network for Q-learning targets are fixed for intervals
   • to reduce the correlations between target and predicted Q-values

Requirements

• Python 2.7 or Python 3.3+
• gym
• tqdm
• SciPy or OpenCV2
• TensorFlow 0.12.0

Usage

First, install prerequisites with:

$ pip install tqdm gym[all]

To train a model for Breakout:

$ python main.py --env_name=Breakout-v0 --is_train=True
$ python main.py --env_name=Breakout-v0 --is_train=True --display=True

To test and record the screen with gym:

$ python main.py --is_train=False
$ python main.py --is_train=False --display=True

Results

Result of training for 24 hours using GTX 980 ti.

Simple Results

Details of Breakout with model m2(red) for 30 hours using GTX 980 Ti.

Details of Breakout with model m3(red) for 30 hours using GTX 980 Ti.

Detailed Results

[1] Action-repeat (frame-skip) of 1, 2, and 4 without learning rate decay

[2] Action-repeat (frame-skip) of 1, 2, and 4 with learning rate decay

[1] & [2]

[3] Action-repeat of 4 for DQN (dark blue) Dueling DQN (dark green) DDQN (brown) Dueling DDQN (turquoise)

The current hyper parameters and gradient clipping are not implemented as it is in the paper.

[4] Distributed action-repeat (frame-skip) of 1 without learning rate decay

[5] Distributed action-repeat (frame-skip) of 4 without learning rate decay
