Categorical LSTM Policy.

A policy represented by a Categorical distribution which is parameterized by a Long short-term memory (LSTM).

It only works with akro.Discrete action space.

Parameters:
  • env_spec (garage.envs.env_spec.EnvSpec) – Environment specification.
  • name (str) – Policy name, also the variable scope.
  • hidden_dim (int) – Hidden dimension for LSTM cell.
  • 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.
  • recurrent_nonlinearity (callable) – Activation function for recurrent layers. It should return a tf.Tensor. Set it to None to maintain a linear activation.
  • recurrent_w_init (callable) – Initializer function for the weight of recurrent 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.
  • hidden_state_init (callable) – Initializer function for the initial hidden state. The functino should return a tf.Tensor.
  • hidden_state_init_trainable (bool) – Bool for whether the initial hidden state is trainable.
  • cell_state_init (callable) – Initializer function for the initial cell state. The functino should return a tf.Tensor.
  • cell_state_init_trainable (bool) – Bool for whether the initial cell state is trainable.
  • state_include_action (bool) – Whether the state includes action. If True, input dimension will be (observation dimension + action dimension).
  • forget_bias (bool) – If True, add 1 to the bias of the forget gate at initialization. It’s used to reduce the scale of forgetting at the beginning of the training.
  • layer_normalization (bool) – Bool for using layer normalization or not.
