[docs]class BasePolicy(ABC, nn.Module):
"""The base class for any RL policy.
Tianshou aims to modularize RL algorithms. It comes into several classes of
policies in Tianshou. All of the policy classes must inherit
:class:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy`.
A policy class typically has the following parts:
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.__init__`: initialize the policy, including \
coping the target network and so on;
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.forward`: compute action with given \
observation;
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.process_fn`: pre-process data from the \
replay buffer (this function can interact with replay buffer);
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.learn`: update policy with a given batch of \
data.
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.post_process_fn`: update the replay buffer \
from the learning process (e.g., prioritized replay buffer needs to update \
the weight);
* :meth:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy.update`: the main interface for training, \
i.e., `process_fn -> learn -> post_process_fn`.
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:
1. Input: observation "obs" (may be a ``numpy.ndarray``, a ``torch.Tensor``, a \
dict or any others), hidden state "state" (for RNN usage), and other information \
"info" provided by the environment.
2. 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 :class:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy` inherits ``torch.nn.Module``, you can
use :class:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy` almost the same as ``torch.nn.Module``,
for instance, loading and saving the model:
::
torch.save(policy.state_dict(), "policy.pth")
policy.load_state_dict(torch.load("policy.pth"))
