Study Notes
Gym Environment Components
- Observation Space: Defines the format of observations.
- Action Space: Defines the set of possible actions.
- Reward Structure: Defines how rewards are given.
- State Transition: Defines how the environment changes with actions.
Gym API Methods
- reset(): Initializes the environment.
- step(action): Applies an action and returns the result.
- render(): Visualizes the environment.
- close(): Cleans up resources.
Evaluating Agent Performance
-
Metrics:
- Total Reward: Sum of rewards over an episode.
- Episode Length: Number of steps before termination.
- Stability and Consistency: How performance varies across episodes.
Visualization Tools
- TensorBoard: For tracking metrics.
- Matplotlib: For plotting performance graphs.
Best Practices
- Run multiple training sessions.
- Compare against baseline models.
