深度確定性策略梯度(Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient, DDPG)是受Deep Q-Network啟發的無模型、非策略深度強化演算法，是基於使用策略梯度的Actor-Critic，本文將使用pytorch對其進行完整的實作與講解
DDPG的關鍵組成部分是
下面我們一個一個來逐步實現：
DDPG使用Replay Buffer儲存透過探索環境採樣的過程和獎勵(Sₜ，aₜ，Rₜ，Sₜ ₁)。 Replay Buffer在幫助代理加速學習以及DDPG的穩定性方面起著至關重要的作用:
class Replay_buffer(): ''' Code based on: https://github.com/openai/baselines/blob/master/baselines/deepq/replay_buffer.py Expects tuples of (state, next_state, action, reward, done) ''' def __init__(self, max_size=capacity): """Create Replay buffer. Parameters ---------- size: int Max number of transitions to store in the buffer. When the buffer overflows the old memories are dropped. """ self.storage = [] self.max_size = max_size self.ptr = 0 def push(self, data): if len(self.storage) == self.max_size: self.storage[int(self.ptr)] = data self.ptr = (self.ptr + 1) % self.max_size else: self.storage.append(data) def sample(self, batch_size): """Sample a batch of experiences. Parameters ---------- batch_size: int How many transitions to sample. Returns ------- state: np.array batch of state or observations action: np.array batch of actions executed given a state reward: np.array rewards received as results of executing action next_state: np.array next state next state or observations seen after executing action done: np.array done[i] = 1 if executing ation[i] resulted in the end of an episode and 0 otherwise. """ ind = np.random.randint(0, len(self.storage), size=batch_size) state, next_state, action, reward, done = [], [], [], [], [] for i in ind: st, n_st, act, rew, dn = self.storage[i] state.append(np.array(st, copy=False)) next_state.append(np.array(n_st, copy=False)) action.append(np.array(act, copy=False)) reward.append(np.array(rew, copy=False)) done.append(np.array(dn, copy=False)) return np.array(state), np.array(next_state), np.array(action), np.array(reward).reshape(-1, 1), np.array(done).reshape(-1, 1)
這是Actor-Critic 強化學習演算法的 PyTorch 實作。這個程式碼定義了兩個神經網路模型，一個 Actor 和一個 Critic。
Actor 模型的輸入：環境狀態；Actor 模型的輸出：具有連續值的動作。
Critic 模型的輸入：環境狀態與動作；Critic 模型的輸出：Q 值，即當前狀態-動作對的預期總獎勵。
class Actor(nn.Module): """ The Actor model takes in a state observation as input and outputs an action, which is a continuous value. It consists of four fully connected linear layers with ReLU activation functions and a final output layer selects one single optimized action for the state """ def __init__(self, n_states, action_dim, hidden1): super(Actor, self).__init__() self.net = nn.Sequential( nn.Linear(n_states, hidden1), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden1, hidden1), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden1, hidden1), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden1, 1) ) def forward(self, state): return self.net(state) class Critic(nn.Module): """ The Critic model takes in both a state observation and an action as input and outputs a Q-value, which estimates the expected total reward for the current state-action pair. It consists of four linear layers with ReLU activation functions, State and action inputs are concatenated before being fed into the first linear layer. The output layer has a single output, representing the Q-value """ def __init__(self, n_states, action_dim, hidden2): super(Critic, self).__init__() self.net = nn.Sequential( nn.Linear(n_states + action_dim, hidden2), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden2, hidden2), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden2, hidden2), nn.ReLU(), nn.Linear(hidden2, action_dim) ) def forward(self, state, action): return self.net(torch.cat((state, action), 1))
向 Actor 選擇的動作添加雜訊是 DDPG 中用來鼓勵探索和改進學習過程的一種技術。
可以使用高斯雜訊或 Ornstein-Uhlenbeck 雜訊。高斯噪聲簡單且易於實現，Ornstein-Uhlenbeck 噪聲會產生時間相關的噪聲，可以幫助代理更有效地探索動作空間。但與高斯雜訊方法相比，Ornstein-Uhlenbeck 雜訊波動更平滑且隨機性更低。
import numpy as np import random import copy class OU_Noise(object): """Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. code from : https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1287634/implementing-ornstein-uhlenbeck-in-matlab The OU_Noise class has four attributes size: the size of the noise vector to be generated mu: the mean of the noise, set to 0 by default theta: the rate of mean reversion, controlling how quickly the noise returns to the mean sigma: the volatility of the noise, controlling the magnitude of fluctuations """ def __init__(self, size, seed, mu=0., theta=0.15, sigma=0.2): self.mu = mu * np.ones(size) self.theta = theta self.sigma = sigma self.seed = random.seed(seed) self.reset() def reset(self): """Reset the internal state (= noise) to mean (mu).""" self.state = copy.copy(self.mu) def sample(self): """Update internal state and return it as a noise sample. This method uses the current state of the noise and generates the next sample """ dx = self.theta * (self.mu - self.state) + self.sigma * np.array([np.random.normal() for _ in range(len(self.state))]) self.state += dx return self.state
要在DDPG中使用高斯噪聲，可以直接將高斯噪聲加入到代理的動作選擇過程中。
DDPG (Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient)採用兩組Actor-Critic神經網路進行函數逼近。在DDPG中，目標網路是Actor-Critic ，它目標網路具有與Actor-Critic網路相同的結構和參數化。
在訓練期時，代理程式使用其 Actor-Critic 網路與環境交互，並將經驗元組（Sₜ、Aₜ、Rₜ、Sₜ ₁）儲存在Replay Buffer中。然後代理從 Replay Buffer 中取樣並使用資料更新 Actor-Critic 網路。 DDPG 演算法不是透過直接從 Actor-Critic 網路複製來更新目標網路權重，而是透過稱為軟目標更新的過程緩慢更新目標網路權重。
軟體目標的更新是從Actor-Critic網路傳輸到目標網路的稱為目標更新率(τ)的權重的一小部分。
軟體目標的更新公式如下:
#透過使用軟目標技術，可以大幅提升學習的穩定性。
#Set Hyperparameters # Hyperparameters adapted for performance from capacity=1000000 batch_size=64 update_iteration=200 tau=0.001 # tau for soft updating gamma=0.99 # discount factor directory = './' hidden1=20 # hidden layer for actor hidden2=64. #hiiden laye for critic class DDPG(object): def __init__(self, state_dim, action_dim): """ Initializes the DDPG agent.

這裡我們使用OpenAI Gym 的「MountainCarContinuous-v0」來訓練我們的DDPG RL 模型，這裡的環境提供連續的行動和觀察空間，目標是盡快讓小車到達山頂。
下面定義演算法的各種參數，例如最大訓練次數、探索雜訊和記錄間隔等等。使用固定的隨機種子可以使得過程能夠回溯。

建立DDPG代理程式類別的實例，以訓練代理程式達到指定的次數。在每輪結束時呼叫代理的update()方法來更新參數，並且在每十輪之後使用save()方法將代理的參數儲存到一個檔案中。

DDPG演算法是一種受deep Q-Network (DQN)演算法啟發的無模型off-policy Actor-Critic演算法。它結合了策略梯度方法和Q-learning的優點來學習連續動作空間的確定性策略。
與DQN類似，它使用重播緩衝區來儲存過去的經驗和目標網絡，用於訓練網絡，從而提高了訓練過程的穩定性。
DDPG演算法需要仔細的超參數調優以獲得最佳效能。超參數包括學習率、批次大小、目標網路更新速率和探測噪音參數。超參數的微小變化會對演算法的效能產生重大影響。
