Gaussian MLP Baseline with Model.

It fits the input data to a gaussian distribution estimated by a MLP.

Parameters
  • env_spec (garage.envs.env_spec.EnvSpec) – Environment specification.

  • subsample_factor (float) – The factor to subsample the data. By default it is 1.0, which means using all the data.

  • num_seq_inputs (float) – Number of sequence per input. By default it is 1.0, which means only one single sequence.

  • name (str) – Name of baseline.

  • hidden_sizes (list[int]) – Output dimension of dense layer(s) for the MLP for mean. For example, (32, 32) means the MLP consists of two hidden layers, each with 32 hidden units.

  • hidden_nonlinearity (Callable) – Activation function for intermediate dense layer(s). It should return a tf.Tensor. Set it to None to maintain a linear activation.

  • hidden_w_init (Callable) – Initializer function for the weight of intermediate dense layer(s). The function should return a tf.Tensor.

  • hidden_b_init (Callable) – Initializer function for the bias of intermediate dense layer(s). The function should return a tf.Tensor.

  • output_nonlinearity (Callable) – Activation function for output dense layer. It should return a tf.Tensor. Set it to None to maintain a linear activation.

  • output_w_init (Callable) – Initializer function for the weight of output dense layer(s). The function should return a tf.Tensor.

  • output_b_init (Callable) – Initializer function for the bias of output dense layer(s). The function should return a tf.Tensor.

  • optimizer (garage.tf.Optimizer) – Optimizer for minimizing the negative log-likelihood.

  • optimizer_args (dict) – Arguments for the optimizer. Default is None, which means no arguments.

  • use_trust_region (bool) – Whether to use trust region constraint.

  • max_kl_step (float) – KL divergence constraint for each iteration.

  • learn_std (bool) – Is std trainable.

  • init_std (float) – Initial value for std.

  • adaptive_std (bool) – Is std a neural network. If False, it will be a parameter.

  • std_share_network (bool) – Boolean for whether mean and std share the same network.

  • std_hidden_sizes (list[int]) – Output dimension of dense layer(s) for the MLP for std. For example, (32, 32) means the MLP consists of two hidden layers, each with 32 hidden units.

  • std_nonlinearity (Callable) – Nonlinearity for each hidden layer in the std network.

  • layer_normalization (bool) – Bool for using layer normalization or not.

  • normalize_inputs (bool) – Bool for normalizing inputs or not.

  • normalize_outputs (bool) – Bool for normalizing outputs or not.

  • subsample_factor – The factor to subsample the data. By default it is 1.0, which means using all the data.

build(self, *inputs, name=None)

Build a Network with the given input(s).

* Do not call tf.global_variable_initializers() after building a model as it will reassign random weights to the model. The parameters inside a model will be initialized when calling build(). *

It uses the same, fixed variable scope for all Networks, to ensure parameter sharing. Different Networks must have an unique name.
