Evolution Strategies and Genetic Algorithms Policy in DRL

[kengz]

Hi @bahaTRKGLU I have looked at evolutionary methods a little, but the main challenge is the API.
The lab is able to implement all the algorithms within a shared framework because they have a common API - the control loop here.

This means for any implementation, it needs to obey the agent API. A simple example that's non-gradient is the random agent. If you're able to make evolutionary method conform to this API then u can directly plug and play it in the lab.

Interested to see if you have a design in mind!

I basically want to implement the code shared by uber and compare the results with the algorithms in SLM-lab. But I'm a rookie in this regard and I couldn't.
Can you add this algorithm to SLM-lab at a convenient time?

Unfortunately there's no plan to do so and we the authors are quite occupied, but I'll mark this as help wanted for anyone who wishes to take it on.
