This repository contains the code used for our paper Grounding Large Language Models with Online Reinforcement Learning.
You can find more information on our website.
We perform functional grounding of LLMs' knowledge in BabyAI-Text using the GLAM method:
We release our BabyAI-Text environment along with the code to perform our experiments (both training agents and evaluating their performance). We rely on the Lamorel library to use LLMs.
Our repository is structured as follows:

Please use Lamorel along with our configs. You can find examples of our training scripts in campaign.
To train a Language Model on a BabyAI-Text environment, one must use the train_language_agent.py file.
This script (launched with Lamorel) uses the following config entries:
rl_script_args:
seed: 1
number_envs: 2 # Number of parallel envs to launch (steps will be synchronized, i.e. a step call will return number_envs observations)
num_steps: 1000 # Total number of training steps
max_episode_steps: 3 # Maximum number of steps in a single episode
frames_per_proc: 40 # The number of collected transitions to perform a PPO update will be frames_per_proc*number_envs
discount: 0.99 # Discount factor used in PPO
lr: 1e-6 # Learning rate used to finetune the LLM
beta1: 0.9 # PPO's hyperparameter
beta2: 0.999 # PPO's hyperparameter
gae_lambda: 0.99 # PPO's hyperparameter
entropy_coef: 0.01 # PPO's hyperparameter
value_loss_coef: 0.5 # PPO's hyperparameter
max_grad_norm: 0.5 # Maximum grad norm when updating the LLM's parameters
adam_eps: 1e-5 # Adam's hyperparameter
clip_eps: 0.2 # Epsilon used in PPO's losses clipping
epochs: 4 # Number of PPO epochs performed on each set of collected trajectories
batch_size: 16 # Minibatch size
action_space: ["turn_left","turn_right","go_forward","pick_up","drop","toggle"] # Possible actions for the agent
saving_path_logs: ??? # Where to store logs
name_experiment: 'llm_mtrl' # Useful for logging
name_model: 'T5small' # Useful for logging
saving_path_model: ??? # Where to store the finetuned model
name_environment: 'BabyAI-MixedTestLocal-v0' # BabiAI-Text's environment
load_embedding: true # Whether trained embedding layers should be loaded (useful when lm_args.pretrained=False). Setting both this and use_action_heads to True (lm_args.pretrained=False) creates our NPAE agent.
use_action_heads: false # Whether action heads should be used instead of scoring. Setting both this and use_action_heads to True (lm_args.pretrained=False) creates our NPAE agent.
template_test: 1 # Which prompt template to use to log evolution of action's probability (Section C of our paper). Choices or [1, 2].
nbr_obs: 3 # Number of past observation used in the promptFor the config entries related to the Language Model itself, please see Lamorel.
To evaluate the performance of an agent (e.g. a trained LLM, BabyAI's bot...) on test tasks, use post-training_tests.py and set the following config entries:
rl_script_args:
seed: 1
number_envs: 2 # Number of parallel envs to launch (steps will be synchronized, i.e. a step call will return number_envs observations)
max_episode_steps: 3 # Maximum number of steps in a single episode
