Application Samples

The application sample of this library can be found in the following repositories:

Usage

Create Agent

An reinforcement agent, say, Q-Learn agent, can be created by the following java code:

import com.github.chen0040.rl.learning.qlearn.QAgent;

int stateCount = 100;
int actionCount = 10;
QAgent agent = new QAgent(stateCount, actionCount);

The agent created has a state map of 100 states, and 10 different actions for its selection.

For Q-Learn and SARSA, the eligibility trace lambda can be enabled by calling:

agent.enableEligibilityTrace(lambda)

Select Action

At each time step, a action can be selected by the agent, by calling:

int actionId = agent.selectAction().getIndex();

If you want to limits the number of possible action at each states (say the problem restrict the actions avaliable at different state), then call:

Set<Integer> actionsAvailableAtCurrentState = world.getActionsAvailable(agent);
int actionTaken = agent.selectAction(actionsAvailableAtCurrentState).getIndex();

The agent can also change to a different action-selection policy available in com.github.chen0040.rl.actionselection package, for example, the following code switch the action selection policy to soft-max:

agent.getLearner().setActionSelection(SoftMaxActionSelectionStrategy.class.getCanonicalName());

State-Action Update

Once the world state has been updated due to the agent's selected action, its internal state-action Q matrix will be updated by calling:

int newStateId = world.update(agent, actionTaken);
double reward = world.reward(agent);

agent.update(actionTaken, newStateId, reward);

Sample code

Sample code for R-Learn

import com.github.chen0040.rl.learning.rlearn.RAgent;

int stateCount = 100;
int actionCount = 10;
RAgent agent = new RAgent(stateCount, actionCount);

Random random = new Random();
agent.start(random.nextInt(stateCount));
for(int time=0; time < 1000; ++time){

 int actionId = agent.selectAction().getIndex();
 System.out.println("Agent does action-"+actionId);
 
 int newStateId = world.update(agent, actionId);
 double reward = world.reward(agent);

 System.out.println("Now the new state is " + newStateId);
 System.out.println("Agent receives Reward = "+reward);

 agent.update(actionId, newStateId, reward);
}

Alternatively, you can use RLearner if you want to learning after the episode:

class Move {
    int oldState;
    int newState;
    int action;
    double reward;
    
    public Move(int oldState, int action, int newState, double reward) {
        this.oldState = oldState;
        this.newState = newState;
        this.reward = reward;
        this.action = action;
    }
}

int stateCount = 100;
int actionCount = 10;
RLearner agent = new RLearner(stateCount, actionCount);

Random random = new Random();
int currentState = random.nextInt(stateCount));
List<TupleThree<Integer, Integer, Double>> moves = new ArrayList<>();
for(int time=0; time < 1000; ++time){

 int actionId = agent.selectAction(currentState).getIndex();
 System.out.println("Agent does action-"+actionId);
 
 int newStateId = world.update(agent, actionId);
 double reward = world.reward(agent);

 System.out.println("Now the new state is " + newStateId);
 System.out.println("Agent receives Reward = "+reward);
 int oldStateId = currentState;
 moves.add(new Move(oldStateId, actionId, newStateId, reward));
  currentState = newStateId;
}

for(int i=moves.size()-1; i >= 0; --i){
    Move move = moves.get(i);
    agent.update(move.oldState, move.action, move.newState, world.getActionsAvailableAtState(nextStateId), move.reward);
}

Sample code for Q-Learn

import com.github.chen0040.rl.learning.qlearn.QAgent;

int stateCount = 100;
int actionCount = 10;
QAgent agent = new QAgent(stateCount, actionCount);

Random random = new Random();
agent.start(random.nextInt(stateCount));
for(int time=0; time < 1000; ++time){

 int actionId = agent.selectAction().getIndex();
 System.out.println("Agent does action-"+actionId);
 
 int newStateId = world.update(agent, actionId);
 double reward = world.reward(agent);

 System.out.println("Now the new state is " + newStateId);
 System.out.println("Agent receives Reward = "+reward);

 agent.update(actionId, newStateId, reward);
}

        this.oldState = oldState;
        this.newState = newState;
        this.reward = reward;
        this.action = action;
    }
}

int stateCount = 100;
int actionCount = 10;
QLearner agent = new QLearner(stateCount, actionCount);

Random random = new Random();
int currentState = random.nextInt(stateCount));
List<TupleThree<Integer, Integer, Double>> moves = new ArrayList<>();
for(int time=0; time < 1000; ++time){

 int actionId = agent.selectAction(currentState).getIndex();
 System.out.println("Agent does action-"+actionId);
 
 int newStateId = world.update(agent, actionId);
 double reward = world.reward(agent);

 System.out.println("Now the new state is " + newStateId);

 moves.add(new Move(oldStateId, actionId, newStateId, reward));
  currentState = newStateId;
}

for(int i=moves.size()-1; i >= 0; --i){
    Move move = moves.get(i);
    agent.update(move.oldState, move.action, move.newState, move.reward);

        this.oldState = oldState;
        this.newState = newState;
        this.reward = reward;
        this.action = action;
    }
}

int stateCount = 100;

Save and Load RL models

To save the trained RL model (say QLeanrer):

QLearner learner = new QLearner(stateCount, actionCount);
train(learner);
String json = learner.toJson();

To load the trained RL model from json:

QLearner learner = QLearn.fromJson(json);
