Installation

PFRL is tested with Python 3.7.7. For other requirements, see requirements.txt.

PFRL can be installed via PyPI:

pip install pfrl

It can also be installed from the source code:

python setup.py install

Refer to Installation for more information on installation.

Getting started

You can try PFRL Quickstart Guide first, or check the examples ready for Atari 2600 and Open AI Gym.

For more information, you can refer to PFRL's documentation.

*Note on Pretrained models: PFRL provides pretrained models (sometimes called a 'model zoo') for our reproducibility scripts on Atari environments (DQN, IQN, Rainbow, and A3C) and Mujoco environments (DDPG, TRPO, PPO, TD3, SAC), for each benchmarked environment.

Following algorithms have been implemented in PFRL:

Following useful techniques have been also implemented in PFRL:

Environments

Environments that support the subset of OpenAI Gym's interface (reset and step methods) can be used.
