Safe Option-Critic: Learning Safety in Option-Critic Architecture

This repo contains code accompanying the paper, Safe Option-Critic: Learning Safety in the Option-Critic Architecture.

For experiments in the grid-world and cartpole, see this codebase.

Dependencies

Here's a list of all dependencies:

• Numpy
• Theano
• Lasagne
• Argparse
• OpenAI Gym [Atari]
• matplotlib
• PIL (Image)

Training

To train, run following command:

python train.py --sub-env Breakout --num-options 8 --num-threads 16 --folder-name Breakout_model

or, you might need to run:

THEANO_FLAGS=floatX=float32 python2.7 train.py --sub-env Breakout --num-options 8 --num-threads 16 --folder-name Breakout_model

To view a list of available parameters, run:

print train.py --help

During training, you can run utils/plot.py to view the training curve. Every argument given can be a path to a different run, which will put all runs on the same plot.

python utils/plot.py models/Breakout_model/ models/Breakout_model_v2/ models/Breakout_model_v3/

or, you might need to run:

THEANO_FLAGS=floatX=float32 python2.7 utils/plot.py models/Breakout_model_v1/ models/Montezuma_model/

For training with different hyperparameters than the default settings, Here is an example of setting controllability true with a parameter 4.0

THEANO_FLAGS=floatX=float32 python2.7 train.py --sub-env Seaquest --num-options 8 --num-threads 16 --folder-name  Seaquest_model_C0.5 --controllability True --beta 4.0

Here is an example of how to train with different delib cost, margin cost, etc:

THEANO_FLAGS=floatX=float32 python2.7 train.py --sub-env Seaquest --num-options 8 --delib-cost 0.020 --margin-cost 0.99 --num-threads 16 --folder-name  Seaquest_model_NC_D0.02_M0.99

Testing

To watch model after training, run watch.py and give it the path the saved model files. e.g.:

python watch.py models/Breakout_model/

or you might need to run:

THEANO_FLAGS=floatX=float32 python2.7 watch.py models/Montezuma_model/

Plot Learning curves

To plot multiple training curves during or after training, you could run:

python2.7 utils/plot.py pathto/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.15_OPT4_EPS0.2 pathto/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0_OPT4_EPS0.2/ pathto/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.5_OPT4_EPS0.2/ pathto/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C2.0_OPT4_EPS0.2/

To plot multiple runs averaged learning curves, you could run:

python2.7 utils/plotmultiruns.py /pathto/models_run5/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0_OPT4_EPS0.2 /pathto/serverbackup/models_run5/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.05_OPT4_EPS0.2 /pathto/models_run5/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.10_OPT4_EPS0.2 /pathto/serverbackup/models_run5/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.15_OPT4_EPS0.2 /pathto/models_run5/models/MsPacman_DC0.02_MC0.99_C0.25_OPT4_EPS0.2

Here, it is assumed that you have the data from all different runs saved in the path1/models_runx/models
