Install

AtariARI Wrapper

You can do a minimal install to get just the AtariARI (Atari Annotated RAM Interface) wrapper by doing:

pip install 'gym[atari]'
pip install git+git://github.com/mila-iqia/atari-representation-learning.git

This just requires gym[atari] and it gives you the ability to play around with the AtariARI wrapper. If you want to use the code for training representation learning methods and probing them, you will need a full installation:

Full installation (AtariARI Wrapper + Training & Probing Code)

# PyTorch and scikit learn
conda install pytorch torchvision -c pytorch
conda install scikit-learn

# Baselines for Atari preprocessing
# Tensorflow is a dependency, but you don't need to install the GPU version
conda install tensorflow
pip install git+git://github.com/openai/baselines

# pytorch-a2c-ppo-acktr for RL utils
pip install git+git://github.com/ankeshanand/pytorch-a2c-ppo-acktr-gail

# Clone and install our package
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install git+git://github.com/mila-iqia/atari-representation-learning.git

Usage

Atari Annotated RAM Interface (AtariARI):

AtariARI exposes the ground truth labels for different state variables for each observation. We have made AtariARI available as a Gym wrapper, to use it simply wrap an Atari gym env with AtariARIWrapper.

import gym
from atariari.benchmark.wrapper import AtariARIWrapper
env = AtariARIWrapper(gym.make('MsPacmanNoFrameskip-v4'))
obs = env.reset()
obs, reward, done, info = env.step(1)

Now, info is a dictionary of the form:

{'ale.lives': 3,
 'labels': {'enemy_sue_x': 88,
  'enemy_inky_x': 88,
  'enemy_pinky_x': 88,
  'enemy_blinky_x': 88,
  'enemy_sue_y': 80,
  'enemy_inky_y': 80,
  'enemy_pinky_y': 80,
  'enemy_blinky_y': 50,
  'player_x': 88,
  'player_y': 98,
  'fruit_x': 0,
  'fruit_y': 0,
  'ghosts_count': 3,
  'player_direction': 3,
  'dots_eaten_count': 0,
  'player_score': 0,
  'num_lives': 2}}

Note: In our experiments, we use additional preprocessing for Atari environments mainly following Minh et. al, 2014. See atariari/benchmark/envs.py for more info!

If you want the raw RAM annotations (which parts of ram correspond to each state variable), check out atariari/benchmark/ram_annotations.py

Probing

⚠️ Important ⚠️ : The RAM labels are meant for full-sized Atari observations (210 * 160). Probing results won't be accurate if you downsample the observations.

We provide an interface for the included probing tasks.

First, get episodes for train, val and, test:

from atariari.benchmark.episodes import get_episodes

tr_episodes, val_episodes,\
tr_labels, val_labels,\
test_episodes, test_labels = get_episodes(env_name="PitfallNoFrameskip-v4", 
                                     steps=50000, 
                                     collect_mode="random_agent")

Then probe them using ProbeTrainer and your encoder (my_encoder):

from atariari.benchmark.probe import ProbeTrainer

probe_trainer = ProbeTrainer(my_encoder, representation_len=my_encoder.feature_size)
probe_trainer.train(tr_episodes, val_episodes,
                     tr_labels, val_labels,)
final_accuracies, final_f1_scores = probe_trainer.test(test_episodes, test_labels)

To see how we use ProbeTrainer, check out scripts/run_probe.py

Here is an example of my_encoder:

# get your encoder
import torch.nn as nn
import torch
class MyEncoder(nn.Module):
    def __init__(self, input_channels, feature_size):
        super().__init__()
        self.feature_size = feature_size
        self.input_channels = input_channels
        self.final_conv_size = 64 * 9 * 6
        self.cnn = nn.Sequential(
            nn.Conv2d(input_channels, 32, 8, stride=4),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Conv2d(32, 64, 4, stride=2),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Conv2d(64, 128, 4, stride=2),
            nn.ReLU(),
            nn.Conv2d(128, 64, 3, stride=1),
            nn.ReLU()
        )
        self.fc = nn.Linear(self.final_conv_size, self.feature_size)

    def forward(self, inputs):
        x = self.cnn(inputs)
        x = x.view(x.size(0), -1)
        return self.fc(x)
        

my_encoder = MyEncoder(input_channels=1,feature_size=256)
# load in weights
my_encoder.load_state_dict(torch.load(open("path/to/my/weights.pt", "rb")))

Spatio-Temporal DeepInfoMax:

src/ contains implementations of several representation learning methods, along with ST-DIM. Here's a sample usage:

python -m scripts.run_probe --method infonce-stdim --env-name {env_name}

where env_name is of the form {game}NoFrameskip-v4, such as PongNoFrameskip-v4
