Combination of the Options RL framework and DQNs. The project contains of the following parts:

Implementation of the plain DQN algorithm

To run the plain DQN go for ../DQN/run_dqn.py where the environment, network and learning parameters can be modified; The learning process for the plain DQN is implemented in the file ../DQN/dqn.py

Using DQN to represent every option and a separate DQN over options

To run the DQN algorithms with options, firstly the options must be trained running the files ../DQN with Options/train_option1(go down).py and ../DQN with Options/train_option2(lift cube).py After that to train the DQN over options run the file ../DQN with Options/train_over_options.py The learning process for the DQN over options is implemented in the file ../DQN with Options/dqn_with_options.py and the file ../DQN with Options/option_class.py contains the implementation of the option work

The united architecture

The testing environment (arm_env_dqn) used in the experiments The environments for training the options (arm_env_dqn_go_down and arm_env_dqn_lift_cube)

Utils needed for plotting and DQN implementation.
