BasePolicy
(observation_space: Optional[gym.spaces.space.Space] = None, action_space: Optional[gym.spaces.space.Space] = None)[source]¶ Bases:
abc.ABC
,torch.nn.modules.module.Module
The base class for any RL policy.
Tianshou aims to modularizing RL algorithms. It comes into several classes of policies in Tianshou. All of the policy classes must inherit
BasePolicy
.A policy class typically has four parts:
__init__()
: initialize the policy, including coping the target network and so on;forward()
: compute action with given observation;process_fn()
: pre-process data from the replay buffer (this function can interact with replay buffer);learn()
: update policy with a given batch of data.
Most of the policy needs a neural network to predict the action and an optimizer to optimize the policy. The rules of self-defined networks are:
Input: observation “obs” (may be a
numpy.ndarray
, atorch.Tensor
, a dict or any others), hidden state “state” (for RNN usage), and other information “info” provided by the environment.Output: some “logits”, the next hidden state “state”, and the intermediate result during policy forwarding procedure “policy”. The “logits” could be a tuple instead of a
torch.Tensor
. It depends on how the policy process the network output. For example, in PPO, the return of the network might be(mu, sigma), state
for Gaussian policy. The “policy” can be a Batch of torch.Tensor or other things, which will be stored in the replay buffer, and can be accessed in the policy update process (e.g. in “policy.learn()”, the “batch.policy” is what you need).
Since
BasePolicy
inheritstorch.nn.Module
, you can useBasePolicy
almost the same astorch.nn.Module
, for instance, loading and saving the model:torch.save(policy.state_dict(), "policy.pth") policy.load_state_dict(torch.load("policy.pth"))

MultiAgentPolicyManager
(policies: List[tianshou.policy.base.BasePolicy], **kwargs: Any)[source]¶ Bases:
tianshou.policy.base.BasePolicy
Multi-agent policy manager for MARL.
This multi-agent policy manager accepts a list of
BasePolicy
. It dispatches the batch data to each of these policies when the “forward” is called. The same as “process_fn” and “learn”: it splits the data and feeds them to each policy. A figure in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning can help you better understand this procedure.-
forward
(batch: tianshou.data.batch.Batch, state: Optional[Union[dict, tianshou.data.batch.Batch]] = None, **kwargs: Any) → tianshou.data.batch.Batch[source]¶ Dispatch batch data from obs.agent_id to every policy’s forward.
- Parameters
state – if None, it means all agents have no state. If not None, it should contain keys of “agent_1”, “agent_2”, …
- Returns
a Batch with the following contents:
{ "act": actions corresponding to the input "state": { "agent_1": output state of agent_1's policy for the state "agent_2": xxx ... "agent_n": xxx} "out": { "agent_1": output of agent_1's policy for the input "agent_2": xxx ... "agent_n": xxx} }
-
learn
(batch: tianshou.data.batch.Batch, **kwargs: Any) → Dict[str, Union[float, List[float]]][source]¶ Dispatch the data to all policies for learning.
- Returns
a dict with the following contents:
{ "agent_1/item1": item 1 of agent_1's policy.learn output "agent_1/item2": item 2 of agent_1's policy.learn output "agent_2/xxx": xxx ... "agent_n/xxx": xxx }
-
process_fn
(batch: tianshou.data.batch.Batch, buffer: tianshou.data.buffer.ReplayBuffer, indice: numpy.ndarray) → tianshou.data.batch.Batch[source]¶ Dispatch batch data from obs.agent_id to every policy’s process_fn.
Save original multi-dimensional rew in “save_rew”, set rew to the reward of each agent during their “process_fn”, and restore the original reward afterwards.
-
replace_policy
(policy: tianshou.policy.base.BasePolicy, agent_id: int) → None[source]¶ Replace the “agent_id”th policy in this manager.
