"""Sets the training related configuration.
Args:
vtrace: Whether to use V-trace weighted advantages. If false, PPO GAE
advantages will be used instead.
use_gae: If true, use the Generalized Advantage Estimator (GAE)
with a value function, see https://arxiv.org/pdf/1506.02438.pdf.
Only applies if vtrace=False.
lambda_: GAE (lambda) parameter.
clip_param: PPO surrogate slipping parameter.
use_kl_loss: Whether to use the KL-term in the loss function.
kl_coeff: Coefficient for weighting the KL-loss term.
kl_target: Target term for the KL-term to reach (via adjusting the
`kl_coeff` automatically).
target_network_update_freq: NOTE: This parameter is only applicable on
the new API stack. The frequency with which to update the target
policy network from the main trained policy network. The metric
used is `NUM_ENV_STEPS_TRAINED_LIFETIME` and the unit is `n` (see [1]
4.1.1), where: `n = [circular_buffer_num_batches (N)] *
[circular_buffer_iterations_per_batch (K)] * [train batch size]`
For example, if you set `target_network_update_freq=2`, and N=4, K=2,
and `train_batch_size_per_learner=500`, then the target net is updated
every 2*4*2*500=8000 trained env steps (every 16 batch updates on each
learner).
The authors in [1] suggests that this setting is robust to a range of
choices (try values between 0.125 and 4).
target_network_update_freq: The frequency to update the target policy and
tune the kl loss coefficients that are used during training. After
setting this parameter, the algorithm waits for at least
`target_network_update_freq` number of environment samples to be trained
on before updating the target networks and tune the kl loss
coefficients. NOTE: This parameter is only applicable when using the
Learner API (enable_rl_module_and_learner=True).
tau: The factor by which to update the target policy network towards
the current policy network. Can range between 0 and 1.
e.g. updated_param = tau * current_param + (1 - tau) * target_param
target_worker_clipping: The maximum value for the target-worker-clipping
used for computing the IS ratio, described in [1]
IS = min(π(i) / π(target), ρ) * (π / π(i))
use_circular_buffer: Whether to use a circular buffer for storing
training batches. If false, a simple Queue will be used. Defaults to
True.
circular_buffer_num_batches: The number of train batches that fit
into the circular buffer. Each such train batch can be sampled for
training max. `circular_buffer_iterations_per_batch` times.
circular_buffer_iterations_per_batch: The number of times any train
batch in the circular buffer can be sampled for training. A batch gets
evicted from the buffer either if it's the oldest batch in the buffer
and a new batch is added OR if the batch reaches this max. number of
being sampled.
simple_queue_size: The size of the simple queue (if `use_circular_buffer`
is False) for storing training batches.
Returns:
This updated AlgorithmConfig object.
