Debugging reinforcement learning implementations, without the agonizing pain.
Debugging Reinforcement Learning Systems andy jones Debugging RL, Without the Agonizing Pain Debugging reinforcement learning systems combines the pain of debugging distributed systems with the pain of debugging numerical optimizers. Which is to say, it sucks . If this is your first time, you might have a few hundred lines of code that you think are correct in an hour, and a system that's actually correct two months later. Here's the head of Tesla AI having just that experience . This is a collection of debugging advice that has served me well over the past few years. It was formed both from m
