KerasRL example code


KerasRL provides several examples of reinforcement learning models implemented using Keras. Here are a few examples:

1. Deep Q-Learning for Atari Breakout:
- This example demonstrates how to implement a deep Q-learning model using Keras to play the Atari Breakout game. The model uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) to learn the Q-values for each action in the game. The code is available on GitHub[2].

2. CartPole Example:
- This example shows how to build a simple reinforcement learning model using Keras to solve the CartPole problem. The model uses a neural network with three hidden layers to predict the Q-values for each action. The code is available on Packt Hub[3].

3. Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG):
- This example implements the DDPG algorithm using Keras. The DDPG algorithm combines the benefits of policy gradients and Q-learning to learn a policy that maximizes the cumulative reward. The code is available on GitHub[4].

4. Actor Critic Method:
- This example demonstrates how to implement an actor-critic method using Keras. The actor-critic method combines the benefits of policy gradients and value-based methods to learn a policy that maximizes the cumulative reward. The code is available on GitHub[4].

5. Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO):
- This example implements the PPO algorithm using Keras. The PPO algorithm is a model-free, on-policy reinforcement learning algorithm that is known for its stability and efficiency. The code is available on GitHub[4].

These examples provide a starting point for implementing various reinforcement learning algorithms using Keras. You can modify and extend these examples to suit your specific needs and experiment with different algorithms and environments[1][4].

Here is a simple example of a DQN model implemented using Keras for the CartPole problem:

python
import numpy as np
from keras.models import Sequential
from keras.layers import Dense, Flatten
from keras.optimizers import Adam
from keras.callbacks import ModelCheckpoint, FileLogger
from keras import backend as K

# Define the model
def build_model(state_size, num_actions):
    model = Sequential()
    model.add(Flatten(input_shape=(1, state_size)))
    model.add(Dense(16, activation='relu'))
    model.add(Dense(16, activation='relu'))
    model.add(Dense(16, activation='relu'))
    model.add(Dense(num_actions, activation='linear'))
    model.compile(optimizer=Adam(lr=0.001), loss='mse')
    return model

# Define the callbacks
def build_callbacks(env_name):
    checkpoint_weights_filename = 'dqn_' + env_name + '_weights_{step}.h5f'
    log_filename = 'dqn_{}_log.json'.format(env_name)
    callbacks = [ModelIntervalCheckpoint(checkpoint_weights_filename, interval=5000)]
    callbacks += [FileLogger(log_filename, interval=100)]
    return callbacks

# Train the model
def train_model(env, model, callbacks):
    model.fit(env, nb_steps=50000, visualize=False, verbose=2, callbacks=callbacks)

# Example usage
if __name__ == "__main__":
    state_size = 4
    num_actions = 2
    model = build_model(state_size, num_actions)
    callbacks = build_callbacks('cartpole')
    train_model(env, model, callbacks)

This example demonstrates how to build a simple DQN model using Keras and train it using the CartPole environment. The model is trained using the Adam optimizer and the mean squared error (MSE) loss function. The training process is monitored using callbacks to save the model weights and log the training process[3].
