Evaluation toolbox for Pogema environment

Project description

POGEMA Toolbox

Downloads PyPI Open In Colab

Overview

The POGEMA Toolbox is a comprehensive framework designed to facilitate the testing of learning-based approaches within the POGEMA environment. This toolbox offers a unified interface that enables the seamless execution of any learnable MAPF algorithm in POGEMA.

  • Firstly, the toolbox provides robust management tools for custom maps, allowing users to register and utilize these maps effectively within POGEMA.
  • Secondly, it enables the concurrent execution of multiple testing instances across various algorithms in a distributed manner, leveraging Dask for scalable processing. The results from these instances are then aggregated for analysis.
  • Lastly, the toolbox includes visualization capabilities, offering a convenient method to graphically represent aggregated results through detailed plots.

Installation

Just install from PyPI:

pip install pogema-toolbox

Features

Register and use custom algorithms

To register an algorithm and then create an inference instance, one can use:

from pogema import BatchAStarAgent

# Registring A* algorithm
ToolboxRegistry.register_algorithm('A*', BatchAStarAgent)

# Creating algorithm
algo = ToolboxRegistry.create_algorithm("A*")

The algorithm should provide a method act, which receives a batch of observations.

A more complex example is an algorithm with tunable hyperparameters. Here is an example with the Follower approach:

ToolboxRegistry.register_algorithm('Follower', FollowerInference, FollowerInferenceConfig,
                                       follower_preprocessor)

For the full evaluation code example, please refer to Follower repository

Register custom maps

To create a custom map, the user first needs to define it using ASCII symbols or by uploading it from a file, and then register it using the toolbox:

from pogema_toolbox.registry import ToolboxRegistry

# Creating cusom_map
custom_map = """
.......#.
...#...#.
.#.###.#.
"""

# Registring custom_map
ToolboxRegistry.register_maps({"custom_map": custom_map})

The configuration is split into three main sections. The first one details the parameters of the POGEMA environment used for testing. It also includes iteration over the number of agents, seeds, and names of the maps (which were registered beforehand). The unified grid_search tag allows for the examination of any existing parameter of the environment. The second part of the configuration is a list of algorithms to be tested. Each algorithm has its alias (which will be shown in the results) and name, which specifies the family of methods. It also includes a list of hyperparameters common to different approaches, e.g., number of processes, parallel backend, etc., and the specific parameters of the algorithm.
