PARL is a flexible and high-efficient reinforcement learning framework. PARL aims to build an agent for training algorithms to perform complex tasks. The main abstractions introduced by PARL that are used to build an agent recursively are the following:

• Model is abstracted to construct the forward network which defines a policy network or critic network given state as input.

• Algorithm describes the mechanism to update parameters in Model and often contains at least one model.

• Agent, a data bridge between the environment and the algorithm, is responsible for data I/O with the outside environment and describes data preprocessing before feeding data into the training process.

To demonstrate Sarsa and Q-learning in CliffWalking environment.

# sarsa
cd .\tutorials\lesson2\sarsa
python .\train.py
# qlearing
cd .\tutorials\lesson2\q_learning
python .\train.py

Results are put here. The first one is Sarsa, the other one is Q-learning.

To demonstrate DQN in CartPole and MountainCar environment.

# dqn
cd .\tutorials\lesson3\dqn
python .\train.py
cd .\tutorials\homework\lesson3\dqn_mountaincar
python .\train.py

Results are put here. The first one is CartPole , the other one is MountainCar .
