Enjoy the pretrained model

Model Free Reinforcement Learning on Chopsticks or Rope

• Run python3 -m plb.algorithms.solve --algo td3 --env_name [Chopsticks-v1/Rope-v1] --exp_name enjoy --model_name rope/encoder --render

Model Based Policy Optimization on Chopsticks or Rope

• Run python3 -m plb.algorithms.solve --algo torch_nn --env_name [Chopsticks-v1/Rope-v1] --exp_name enjoy --model_name rope/encoder --render

Training new model

Collect data from new environment

• Run python3 -m plb.algorithms.solve --algo collect --env_name [EnvName-version] --exp_name [new_environment] Which will collect raw data and stored in raw_data folder.
• Run python3 preprocess.py --dir raw_data/[new_environment]to pre-process data and the preprocessed npz file will be stored in data with the name of [new_environment].

Running State Representation learning using new dataset

• Run python3 plb.algorithms.solve --env_name [EnvName-version] --exp_name [EnvName-version] --exp_name learn_latent --lr 1e-5 The encoder weight will be saved in pretrained_model

Experiment result

All experiment result are rendered from policy trained with MBPO

• Picking up a rope

• Wrapping a rope around a cylinder
