演员-评论员算法(Actor-Critic Algorithm)是一种结合了值函数估计和策略梯度方法的强化学习算法。该算法同时训练一个策略网络(演员)和一个值函数网络(评论员)。演员根据当前策略选择动作,评论员根据当前状态估计值函数,并作为基准线来计算策略梯度的更新。
以下是演员-评论员算法的详细步骤:
在演员-评论员算法中,策略网络充当演员的角色,通过策略梯度方法来更新策略参数,以最大化累积奖励。值函数网络充当评论员的角色,估计状态的值函数并作为基准线来计算优势函数。通过同时训练演员和评论员,演员-评论员算法可以更稳定地学习策略并减小梯度估计的方差。
请注意,上述步骤中的超参数 α \alpha α 和 β \beta β 是学习率,用于控制参数更新的步长。而折扣因子 γ \gamma γ 是用于平衡当前奖励和未来奖励的重要性。这些超参数需要根据具体问题进行调优。
下面是一个使用PyTorch实现演员-评论员(Actor-Critic)算法的简单示例代码:
import torch
import torch.nn as nn
import torch.optim as optim
import torch.nn.functional as F
import numpy as np
class ActorCritic(nn.Module):
def __init__(self, num_states, num_actions, alpha_actor, alpha_critic, gamma):
super(ActorCritic, self).__init__()
self.num_states = num_states
self.num_actions = num_actions
self.alpha_actor = alpha_actor
self.alpha_critic = alpha_critic
self.gamma = gamma
self.actor = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(num_states, 32),
nn.ReLU(),
nn.Linear(32, num_actions),
nn.Softmax(dim=-1)
)
self.critic = nn.Sequential(
nn.Linear(num_states, 32),
nn.ReLU(),
nn.Linear(32, 1)
)
self.actor_optimizer = optim.Adam(self.actor.parameters(), lr=alpha_actor)
self.critic_optimizer = optim.Adam(self.critic.parameters(), lr=alpha_critic)
def get_action(self, state):
state = torch.from_numpy(state).float().unsqueeze(0)
action_probs = self.actor(state)
action = torch.multinomial(action_probs, num_samples=1).item()
return action
def update(self, states, actions, rewards, next_states, dones):
states = torch.tensor(states).float()
actions = torch.tensor(actions).unsqueeze(1)
rewards = torch.tensor(rewards).unsqueeze(1)
next_states = torch.tensor(next_states).float()
dones = torch.tensor(dones).unsqueeze(1)
next_state_values = self.critic(next_states)
target_values = rewards + self.gamma * next_state_values * (1 - dones)
advantages = target_values - self.critic(states)
actor_loss = -(advantages.detach() * torch.log(self.actor(states))).mean()
critic_loss = F.mse_loss(self.critic(states), target_values.detach())
self.actor_optimizer.zero_grad()
self.critic_optimizer.zero_grad()
actor_loss.backward()
critic_loss.backward()
self.actor_optimizer.step()
self.critic_optimizer.step()
# 示例中的环境需要根据具体问题进行定义
class Environment:
def __init__(self, num_states, num_actions):
self.num_states = num_states
self.num_actions = num_actions
def reset(self):
return np.zeros((self.num_states,))
def step(self, action):
next_state = np.random.randn(self.num_states) # 示例中的随机状态转移
reward = np.random.randn() # 示例中的随机奖励
done = False # 示例中的终止条件
return next_state, reward, done
# 示例中的问题配置
num_states = 10
num_actions = 4
alpha_actor = 0.001
alpha_critic = 0.01
gamma = 0.99
num_episodes = 1000
env = Environment(num_states, num_actions)
agent = ActorCritic(num_states, num_actions, alpha_actor, alpha_critic, gamma)
for episode in range(num_episodes):
state = env.reset()
done = False
total_reward = 0
while not done:
action = agent.get_action(state)
next_state, reward, done = env.step(action)
agent.update([state], [action], [reward], [next_state], [done])
state = next_state
total_reward += reward
print(f"Episode: {episode}, Total reward: {total_reward}")
在示例代码中,我们使用PyTorch实现了一个简单的演员-评论员(Actor-Critic)代理。演员网络(Actor)使用多层感知机(MLP)作为策略网络,输出动作的概率分布。评论员网络(Critic)也使用MLP作为值函数网络,输出状态的值函数估计。
在每个回合中,根据当前策略选择动作,并与环境进行交互。然后,根据奖励和下一个状态计算目标值和优势函数。使用优势函数更新策略网络的参数,使用目标值更新值函数网络的参数。重复这个过程直到达到指定的回合数。
下面是一个简单的Python代码示例,演示演员-评论员算法的实现:
import numpy as np
import tensorflow as tf
class ActorCritic:
def __init__(self, num_states, num_actions, alpha_actor, alpha_critic, gamma):
self.num_states = num_states
self.num_actions = num_actions
self.alpha_actor = alpha_actor
self.alpha_critic = alpha_critic
self.gamma = gamma
self.actor_network = self.build_actor_network()
self.critic_network = self.build_critic_network()
def build_actor_network(self):
inputs = tf.keras.Input(shape=(self.num_states,))
x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(32, activation='relu')(inputs)
x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(self.num_actions, activation='softmax')(x)
model = tf.keras.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=x)
model.compile(optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(lr=self.alpha_actor), loss='categorical_crossentropy')
return model
def build_critic_network(self):
inputs = tf.keras.Input(shape=(self.num_states,))
x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(32, activation='relu')(inputs)
x = tf.keras.layers.Dense(1)(x)
model = tf.keras.Model(inputs=inputs, outputs=x)
model.compile(optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(lr=self.alpha_critic), loss='mean_squared_error')
return model
def get_action(self, state):
state = np.reshape(state, (1, self.num_states))
action_probs = self.actor_network.predict(state)[0]
action = np.random.choice(np.arange(self.num_actions), p=action_probs)
return action
def update(self, states, actions, rewards, next_states, dones):
states = np.array(states)
actions = np.array(actions)
rewards = np.array(rewards)
next_states = np.array(next_states)
next_state_values = self.critic_network.predict(next_states)
next_state_values = np.squeeze(next_state_values)
target_values = rewards + self.gamma * next_state_values * (1 - dones)
advantages = target_values - self.critic_network.predict(states).flatten()
self.actor_network.fit(states, tf.keras.utils.to_categorical(actions, num_classes=self.num_actions),
sample_weight=advantages, verbose=0)
self.critic_network.fit(states, target_values, verbose=0)
# 示例中的环境需要根据具体问题进行定义
class Environment:
def __init__(self, num_states, num_actions):
self.num_states = num_states
self.num_actions = num_actions
def reset(self):
return np.zeros((self.num_states,))
def step(self, action):
next_state = np.random.randn(self.num_states) # 示例中的随机状态转移
reward = np.random.randn() # 示例中的随机奖励
done = False # 示例中的终止条件
return next_state, reward, done
# 示例中的问题配置
num_states = 10
num_actions = 4
alpha_actor = 0.001
alpha_critic = 0.01
gamma = 0.99
num_episodes = 1000
env = Environment(num_states, num_actions)
agent = ActorCritic(num_states, num_actions, alpha_actor, alpha_critic, gamma)
for episode in range(num_episodes):
state = env.reset()
done = False
total_reward = 0
while not done:
action = agent.get_action(state)
next_state, reward, done = env.step(action)
agent.update([state], [action], [reward], [next_state], [done])
state = next_state
total_reward += reward
print(f"Episode: {episode}, Total reward: {total_reward}")
在示例代码中,我们定义了一个简单的问题环境(Environment)和一个演员-评论员(ActorCritic)代理。演员-评论员代理使用一个神经网络作为策略网络(演员)和另一个神经网络作为值函数网络(评论员)。策略网络通过softmax函数输出动作的概率分布,值函数网络输出状态的值函数估计。
在每个回合中,根据当前策略选择动作,并与环境进行交互。然后,根据奖励和下一个状态计算目标值和优势函数。使用优势函数更新策略网络的参数,使用目标值更新值函数网络的参数。重复这个过程直到达到指定的回合数。
