# TRFL

TRFL (pronounced "truffle") is a library built on top of TensorFlow that exposes

several useful building blocks for implementing Reinforcement Learning agents.

## Installation

TRFL can be installed from pip with the following command:

`pip install trfl`

TRFL will work with both the CPU and GPU version of tensorflow, but to allow

for that it does not list Tensorflow as a requirement, so you need to install

Tensorflow and Tensorflow-probability separately if you haven't already done so.

## Usage Example

```python

import tensorflow as tf

import trfl

# Q-values for the previous and next timesteps, shape [batch_size, num_actions].

q_tm1 = tf.get_variable(

    "q_tm1", initializer=[[1., 1., 0.], [1., 2., 0.]], dtype=tf.float32)

q_t = tf.get_variable(

    "q_t", initializer=[[0., 1., 0.], [1., 2., 0.]], dtype=tf.float32)

# Action indices, discounts and rewards, shape [batch_size].

a_tm1 = tf.constant([0, 1], dtype=tf.int32)

r_t = tf.constant([1, 1], dtype=tf.float32)

pcont_t = tf.constant([0, 1], dtype=tf.float32)  # the discount factor

# Q-learning loss, and auxiliary data.

loss, q_learning = trfl.qlearning(q_tm1, a_tm1, r_t, pcont_t, q_t)

```

`loss` is the tensor representing the loss. For Q-learning, it is half the

squared difference between the predicted Q-values and the TD targets, shape

`[batch_size]`. Extra information is in the `q_learning` namedtuple, including

`q_learning.td_error` and `q_learning.target`.

The `loss` tensor can be differentiated to derive the corresponding RL update.

```python

reduced_loss = tf.reduce_mean(loss)

optimizer = tf.train.AdamOptimizer(learning_rate=0.1)

train_op = optimizer.minimize(reduced_loss)

```

All loss functions in the package return both a loss tensor and a namedtuple

with extra information, using the above convention, but different functions

may have different `extra` fields. Check the documentation of each function

below for more information.
