d3rlpy: A data-driven deep reinforcement learning library as an out-of-the-box tool

d3rlpy is a data-driven deep reinforcement learning library as an out-of-the-box tool.

from d3rlpy.dataset import MDPDataset
from d3rlpy.algos import CQL

# MDPDataset takes arrays of state transitions
dataset = MDPDataset(observations, actions, rewards, terminals)

# train data-driven deep RL
cql = CQL()
cql.fit(dataset.episodes)

# ready to control
actions = cql.predict(x)

key features

:zap: Designed for Data-Driven Deep Reinforcement Learning

d3rlpy is designed for data-driven deep reinforcement learning algorithms where the algorithm finds the good policy within the given dataset, which is suitable to tasks where online interaction is not feasible. d3rlpy also supports the conventional online training paradigm to fit in with any cases.

:beginner: Easy-To-Use API

d3rlpy provides state-of-the-art algorithms through scikit-learn style APIs without compromising flexibility that provides detailed configurations for professional users. Moreoever, d3rlpy is not just designed like scikit-learn, but also fully compatible with scikit-learn utilites.

:rocket: Beyond State-Of-The-Art

d3rlpy provides further tweeks to improve performance of state-of-the-art algorithms potentially beyond their original papers. Therefore, d3rlpy enables every user to achieve professional-level performance just in a few lines of codes.

• embedded preprocessors
• export greedy-policy as TorchScript or ONNX
• ensemble Q function with bootstrapping
• delayed policy updates
• parallel cross validation with multiple GPU
• online training
• data augmentation
• model-based algorithm
• user-defined custom network

scikit-learn compatibility

This library is designed as if born from scikit-learn. You can fully utilize scikit-learn's utilities to increase your productivity.

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from d3rlpy.metrics.scorer import td_error_scorer

train_episodes, test_episodes = train_test_split(dataset)

cql.fit(train_episodes,
        eval_episodes=test_episodes,
        scorers={'td_error': td_error_scorer})

You can naturally perform cross-validation.

from sklearn.model_selection import cross_validate

scores = cross_validate(cql, dataset, scoring={'td_error': td_error_scorer})

And more.

from sklearn.model_selection import GridSearchCV

gscv = GridSearchCV(estimator=cql,
                    param_grid={'actor_learning_rate': [3e-3, 3e-4, 3e-5]},
                    scoring={'td_error': td_error_scorer},
                    refit=False)
gscv.fit(train_episodes)

coding style

This library is fully formatted with yapf. You can format the entire scripts as follows:

$ ./scripts/format

test

The unit tests are provided as much as possible. This repository is using pytest-cov instead of pytest. You can run the entire tests as follows:

$ ./scripts/test

If you give -p option, the performance tests with toy tasks are also run (this will take minutes).

$ ./scripts/test -p
