python - 了解渐变策略派生

我正在尝试从原始资源Andrej Karpathy blog重新创建非常简单的Policy Gradient示例。在该文章中，您将找到带有CartPole和Policy Gradient以及重量和Softmax激活列表的示例。这是我重新创建的非常简单的CartPole策略渐变示例，效果很好。

        return exp/np.sum(exp)

    def __softmax_grad(self, softmax):
        s = softmax.reshape(-1,1)

题

我正在尝试做几乎相同的示例，但使用了Sigmoid激活（仅出于简化目的）。这就是我要做的。将模型中的激活从softmax切换到sigmoid。哪个应该可以正常工作（基于以下说明）。但是我的Policy Gradient模型什么也不学，并且保持随机性。有什么建议吗？

import gym
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.preprocessing import PolynomialFeatures

NUM_EPISODES = 4000
LEARNING_RATE = 0.000025
GAMMA = 0.99


# noinspection PyMethodMayBeStatic
class Agent:
    def __init__(self):
        self.poly = PolynomialFeatures(1)
        self.w = np.random.rand(5, 1) - 0.5

    # Our policy that maps state to action parameterized by w
    # noinspection PyShadowingNames
    def policy(self, state):
        z = np.sum(state.dot(self.w))
        return self.sigmoid(z)

    def sigmoid(self, x):
        s = 1 / (1 + np.exp(-x))
        return s

    def sigmoid_grad(self, sig_x):
        return sig_x * (1 - sig_x)

    def grad(self, probs, action, state):
        dsoftmax = self.sigmoid_grad(probs)
        dlog = dsoftmax / probs
        grad = state.T.dot(dlog)
        grad = grad.reshape(5, 1)
        return grad

    def update_with(self, grads, rewards):
        if len(grads) < 50:
            return
        for i in range(len(grads)):
            # Loop through everything that happened in the episode
            # and update towards the log policy gradient times **FUTURE** reward

            total_grad_effect = 0
            for t, r in enumerate(rewards[i:]):
                total_grad_effect += r * (GAMMA ** r)
            self.w += LEARNING_RATE * grads[i] * total_grad_effect


def main(argv):
    env = gym.make('CartPole-v0')
    np.random.seed(1)

    agent = Agent()
    complete_scores = []

    for e in range(NUM_EPISODES):
        state = env.reset()[None, :]
        state = agent.poly.fit_transform(state)

        rewards = []
        grads = []
        score = 0

        while True:

            probs = agent.policy(state)
            action_space = env.action_space.n
            action = np.random.choice(action_space, p=[1 - probs, probs])

            next_state, reward, done, _ = env.step(action)
            next_state = next_state[None, :]
            next_state = agent.poly.fit_transform(next_state.reshape(1, 4))

            grad = agent.grad(probs, action, state)
            grads.append(grad)
            rewards.append(reward)

            score += reward
            state = next_state

            if done:
                break

        agent.update_with(grads, rewards)
        complete_scores.append(score)

    env.close()
    plt.plot(np.arange(NUM_EPISODES),
             complete_scores)
    plt.savefig('image1.png')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main(None)

绘制所有学习内容将保持随机性。调整超级参数没有任何帮助。在示例图像下方。

更新

似乎下面的答案可以从图形中完成一些工作。但这不是对数概率，甚至不是策略的梯度。并更改RL渐变政策的整个目的。请检查上面的参考。在图像之后，我们接下来声明。



我需要对“策略”的“对数”函数取一个梯度（即权重和sigmoid激活）。

最佳答案

问题出在grad方法上。

def grad(self, probs, action, state):
    dsoftmax = self.sigmoid_grad(probs)
    dlog = dsoftmax / probs
    grad = state.T.dot(dlog)
    grad = grad.reshape(5, 1)
    return grad

在原始代码中，Softmax与CrossEntropy损失函数一起使用。当您将激活切换为Sigmoid时，适当的损失函数将变为Binary CrossEntropy。现在，grad方法的目的是计算损失函数wrt的梯度。重量。 Sparing详细信息，适当的渐变由(probs - action) * state在您的程序术语中给出。最后一件事是添加减号-我们要使损失函数的负数最大化。

正确的grad方法因此：

def grad(self, probs, action, state):
    grad = state.T.dot(probs - action)
    return -grad

您可能要添加的另一项更改是提高学习率。
LEARNING_RATE = 0.0001和NUM_EPISODES = 5000将产生以下曲线：



如果使用具有零均值和小方差的高斯分布初始化权重，则收敛将更快。

def __init__(self):
    self.poly = PolynomialFeatures(1)
    self.w = np.random.randn(5, 1) * 0.01
