[docs]class TensorDictMaxValueWriter(Writer): """A Writer class for composable replay buffers that keeps the top elements based on some ranking key. Args: rank_key (str or tuple of str): the key to rank the elements by. Defaults to ``("next", "reward")``. reduction (str): the reduction method to use if the rank key has more than one element. Can be ``"max"``, ``"min"``, ``"mean"``, ``"median"`` or ``"sum"``. Examples: >>> import torch >>> from tensordict import TensorDict >>> from torchrl.data import LazyTensorStorage, TensorDictReplayBuffer, TensorDictMaxValueWriter >>> from torchrl.data.replay_buffers.samplers import SamplerWithoutReplacement >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(1), ... sampler=SamplerWithoutReplacement(), ... batch_size=1, ... writer=TensorDictMaxValueWriter(rank_key="key"), ... ) >>> td = TensorDict({ ...

"obs": torch.tensor(range(10)) ... }, batch_size=10) >>> rb.extend(td) >>> print(rb.sample().get("obs").item()) 19 .. note:: This class isn't compatible with storages with more than one dimension. This doesn't mean that storing trajectories is prohibited, but that the trajectories stored must be stored on a per-trajectory basis. Here are some examples of valid and invalid usages of the class. First, a flat buffer where we store individual transitions: >>> from torchrl.data import TensorStorage >>> # Simplest use case: data comes in 1d and is stored as such >>> data = TensorDict({ ... "obs": torch.zeros(10, 3), ... "reward": torch.zeros(10, 1), ... }, batch_size=[10]) >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(max_size=100), ... writer=TensorDictMaxValueWriter(rank_key="reward") ... ) >>> # We initialize the buffer: a total of 100 *transitions* can be stored >>> rb.extend(data) >>> # Samples 5 *transitions* at random >>> sample = rb.sample(5) >>> assert sample.shape == (5,) Second, a buffer where we store trajectories. The max signal is aggregated in each batch (e.g. the reward of each rollout is summed): >>> # One can also store batches of data, each batch being a sub-trajectory >>> env = ParallelEnv(2, lambda: GymEnv("Pendulum-v1")) >>> # Get a batch of [2, 10] -- format is [Batch, Time] >>> rollout = env.rollout(max_steps=10) >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(max_size=100), ... writer=TensorDictMaxValueWriter(rank_key="reward") ... ) >>> # We initialize the buffer: a total of 100 *trajectories* (!) can be stored >>> rb.extend(rollout) >>> # Sample 5 trajectories at random >>> sample = rb.sample(5) >>> assert sample.shape == (5, 10) If data come in batch but a flat buffer is needed, we can simply flatten the data before extending the buffer: >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(max_size=100), ... writer=TensorDictMaxValueWriter(rank_key="reward") ... ) >>> # We initialize the buffer: a total of 100 *transitions* can be stored >>> rb.extend(rollout.reshape(-1)) >>> # Sample 5 trajectories at random >>> sample = rb.sample(5) >>> assert sample.shape == (5,) It is not possible to create a buffer that is extended along the time dimension, which is usually the recommended way of using buffers with batches of trajectories. Since trajectories are overlapping, it's hard if not impossible to aggregate the reward values and compare them. This constructor isn't valid (notice the ndim argument): >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(max_size=100, ndim=2), # Breaks! ... writer=TensorDictMaxValueWriter(rank_key="reward") ... ) """ def __init__(self, rank_key=None, reduction: str = "sum", **kwargs) -> None: super().__init__(**kwargs) self._cursor = 0 self._current_top_values = [] self._rank_key = rank_key self._reduction = reduction if self._rank_key is None: self._rank_key = ("next", "reward") def register_storage(self, storage: Storage) -> None: if storage.ndim > 1: raise ValueError( "TensorDictMaxValueWriter is not compatible with storages with more than one dimension.
