TL;DR
Providing morphological structure as an input graph is not a useful inductive bias in Graph-Based Incompatible Control. If we let the structural information go, we can do better with transformers.

Setup
All the experiments are done in a Docker container. To build it, run ./docker_build.sh
, where
can be cpu
or cu101
. It will use CUDA by default.
To build and run the experiments, you need a MuJoCo license. Put it to the root folder before running docker_build.sh
.
Running
./docker_run # either GPU id or cpu
cd amorpheus # select the experiment to replicate
bash cwhh.sh # run it on a task
We were using Sacred with a remote MongoDB for experiment management. For release, we changed Sacred to log to local files instead. You can change it back to MongDB if you provide credentials in modular-rl/src/main.py
.

- The code is built on top of SMP repository.
- NerveNet Walkers environment are taken and adapted from the original repo.
- Initial implementation of the transformers was taken from the official Pytorch tutorial and modified thereafter.
