-`fancy_gym` offers a large variety of reinforcement learning environments under the unifying interface of [Gymnasium](https://gymnasium.farama.org/). +| :exclamation: Fancy Gym has recently received a mayor refactor, which also updated many of the used dependencies to current versions. The update has brought some breaking changes. If you want to access the old version, check out the legacy branch. Find out more about what changed [here](TODO). | +| ------------------------------------------------------------ | -We provide support (under the Gymnasium interface) for the benchmark suites [DeepMind Control](https://deepmind.com/research/publications/2020/dm-control-Software-and-Tasks-for-Continuous-Control) (DMC) and [Metaworld](https://meta-world.github.io/). If those are not sufficient and you want to create your own custom gym environments, use [this guide](https://www.gymlibrary.dev/content/environment_creation/). We highly appreciate it, if you would then submit a PR for this environment to become part of `fancy_gym`. +Built upon the foundation of [Gymnasium](https://gymnasium.farama.org/) (a maintained fork of OpenAI’s renowned Gym library) `fancy_gym` offers a comprehensive collection of reinforcement learning environments. -In comparison to existing libraries, we additionally support to control agents with movement primitives, such as Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs) and Probabilistic Movement Primitives (ProMP). +**Key Features**: + +- **New Challenging Environments**: We've introduced several new environments that present a higher degree of difficulty, pushing the boundaries of reinforcement learning research. +- **Advanced Movement Primitives**: `fancy_gym` supports sophisticated movement primitives, including Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMPs), Probabilistic Movement Primitives (ProMP), and Probabilistic Dynamic Movement Primitives (ProDMP). +- **Benchmark Suite Compatibility**: `fancy_gym` makes it easy to access renowned benchmark suites such as [DeepMind Control](https://deepmind.com/research/publications/2020/dm-control-Software-and-Tasks-for-Continuous-Control) and [Metaworld](https://meta-world.github.io/) and makes it easy to use them with movement primitives. +- **Upgrade to Movement Primitives**: With our framework, it's straightforward to transform standard Gymnasium environments into environments that support movement primitives. +- **Contribute Your Own Environments**: If you're inspired to create custom gym environments, both step-based and with movement primitives, this [guide](https://www.gymlibrary.dev/content/environment_creation/) will assist you. We encourage and highly appreciate submissions via PRs to integrate these environments into `fancy_gym`. ## Movement Primitive Environments (Episode-Based/Black-Box Environments) -Unlike step-based environments, movement primitive (MP) environments are closer related to stochastic search, black-box -optimization, and methods that are often used in traditional robotics and control. MP environments are typically -episode-based and execute a full trajectory, which is generated by a trajectory generator, such as a Dynamic Movement -Primitive (DMP) or a Probabilistic Movement Primitive (ProMP). The generated trajectory is translated into individual -step-wise actions by a trajectory tracking controller. The exact choice of controller is, however, dependent on the type -of environment. We currently support position, velocity, and PD-Controllers for position, velocity, and torque control, -respectively as well as a special controller for the MetaWorld control suite. -The goal of all MP environments is still to learn an optimal policy. Yet, an action represents the parametrization of -the motion primitives to generate a suitable trajectory. Additionally, in this framework we support all of this also for -the contextual setting, i.e. we expose the context space - a subset of the observation space - in the beginning of the -episode. This requires to predict a new action/MP parametrization for each context. +Movement primitive (MP) environments differ from traditional step-based environments. They align more with concepts from stochastic search, black-box optimization, and methods commonly found in classical robotics and control. Instead of individual steps, MP environments operate on an episode basis, executing complete trajectories. These trajectories are produced by trajectory generators like Dynamic Movement Primitives (DMP), Probabilistic Movement Primitives (ProMP) or Probabilistic Dynamic Movement Primitives (ProDMP). + +Once generated, these trajectories are converted into step-by-step actions using a trajectory tracking controller. The specific controller chosen depends on the environment's requirements. Currently, we support position, velocity, and PD-Controllers tailored for position, velocity, and torque control. Additionally, we have a specialized controller designed for the MetaWorld control suite. + +While the overarching objective of MP environments remains the learning of an optimal policy, the actions here represent the parametrization of motion primitives to craft the right trajectory. Our framework further enhances this by accommodating a contextual setting. At the episode's onset, we present the context space—a subset of the observation space. This demands the prediction of a new action or MP parametrization for every unique context. ## Installation @@ -47,47 +48,43 @@ cd fancy_gym pip install -e . ``` -In case you want to use dm_control oder metaworld, you can install them by specifying extras +We have a few optional dependencies.
