TF Agents & Dopamine #15

Closed abdel closed 5 years ago

abdel commented 5 years ago

There seems to be a lot of overlap between objectives of TF Agents and the Dopamine framework, are there any plans to share or combine these frameworks, or are they intentionally made separate?

alaterre commented 5 years ago

I agree with @abdel, it seems that Dopamine and TF-Agent strongly overlap. Although dopamine aims at being used for fast prototyping and benchmarking as the reproducibility has been put at the core of the project, whereas TF-Agent would be more used for production-level reinforcement learning algorithms. I would love seeing the two frameworks merging or at least having strong compatibilities to facilitate the move from prototyping to production-level code.

@psc-g fyi; we could have a discussion about this as a long term goal.

psc-g commented 5 years ago

yeah, i think this would be a great thing to have. i imagine the use-case would almost exclusively be dopamine -> tf-agents, so we could focus on that without necessarily worrying about supporting the tf-agents -> dopamine direction.
