mean-conc-beta
Beta distribution parameterized by mean and concentration for bounded continuous action spaces in reinforcement learning.
Install
$ pip install mean-conc-beta
Usage
import torch
from mean_conc_beta import Beta
beta = Beta()
# network output: (batch, num_actions, 2) for raw mean and concentration
params = torch.randn(16, 4, 2, requires_grad = True)
# distribution on (-1, 1)
dist = beta(params)
# sample actions
actions = dist.sample()
actions_reparam = dist.rsample()
# log prob and entropy
log_prob = beta.log_prob(dist, actions)
entropy = beta.entropy(dist)
# behavior cloning with mse loss on mean
expert_actions = torch.rand(16, 4)
pred_mean = beta.mean(params)
bc_loss = (pred_mean - expert_actions).pow(2).mean()
bc_loss.backward()
