TensorDictReplayBuffer¶
- class torchrl.data.TensorDictReplayBuffer(*, priority_key: str = 'td_error', **kwargs)[source]¶
TensorDict-specific wrapper around the
ReplayBuffer
class.- Keyword Arguments:
storage (Storage, optional) – the storage to be used. If none is provided a default
ListStorage
withmax_size
of1_000
will be created.sampler (Sampler, optional) – the sampler to be used. If none is provided a default RandomSampler() will be used.
writer (Writer, optional) – the writer to be used. If none is provided a default
RoundRobinWriter
will be used.collate_fn (callable, optional) – merges a list of samples to form a mini-batch of Tensor(s)/outputs. Used when using batched loading from a map-style dataset. The default value will be decided based on the storage type.
pin_memory (bool) – whether pin_memory() should be called on the rb samples.
prefetch (int, optional) – number of next batches to be prefetched using multithreading. Defaults to None (no prefetching).
transform (Transform, optional) – Transform to be executed when sample() is called. To chain transforms use the
Compose
class. Transforms should be used withtensordict.TensorDict
content. If used with other structures, the transforms should be encoded with a"data"
leading key that will be used to construct a tensordict from the non-tensordict content.batch_size (int, optional) –
the batch size to be used when sample() is called. .. note:
The batch-size can be specified at construction time via the ``batch_size`` argument, or at sampling time. The former should be preferred whenever the batch-size is consistent across the experiment. If the batch-size is likely to change, it can be passed to the :meth:`~.sample` method. This option is incompatible with prefetching (since this requires to know the batch-size in advance) as well as with samplers that have a ``drop_last`` argument.
priority_key (str, optional) – the key at which priority is assumed to be stored within TensorDicts added to this ReplayBuffer. This is to be used when the sampler is of type
PrioritizedSampler
. Defaults to"td_error"
.dim_extend (int, optional) –
indicates the dim to consider for extension when calling
extend()
. Defaults tostorage.ndim-1
. When usingdim_extend > 0
, we recommend using thendim
argument in the storage instantiation if that argument is available, to let storages know that the data is multi-dimensional and keep consistent notions of storage-capacity and batch-size during sampling.Note
This argument has no effect on
add()
and therefore should be used with caution when bothadd()
andextend()
are used in a codebase. For example:>>> data = torch.zeros(3, 4) >>> rb = ReplayBuffer( ... storage=LazyTensorStorage(10, ndim=2), ... dim_extend=1) >>> # these two approaches are equivalent: >>> for d in data.unbind(1): ... rb.add(d) >>> rb.extend(data)
generator (torch.Generator, optional) –
a generator to use for sampling. Using a dedicated generator for the replay buffer can allow a fine-grained control over seeding, for instance keeping the global seed different but the RB seed identical for distributed jobs. Defaults to
None
(global default generator).Warning
As of now, the generator has no effect on the transforms.
shared (bool, optional) – whether the buffer will be shared using multiprocessing or not. Defaults to
False
.compilable (bool, optional) – whether the writer is compilable. If
True
, the writer cannot be shared between multiple processes. Defaults toFalse
.

- add(data: TensorDictBase) int [source]¶
Add a single element to the replay buffer.
- Parameters:
data (Any) – data to be added to the replay buffer
- Returns:
index where the data lives in the replay buffer.
- append_transform(transform: Transform, *, invert: bool = False) ReplayBuffer ¶
Appends transform at the end.
Transforms are applied in order when sample is called.
- Parameters:
transform (Transform) – The transform to be appended
- Keyword Arguments:
invert (bool, optional) – if
True
, the transform will be inverted (forward calls will be called during writing and inverse calls during reading). Defaults toFalse
.
Example
>>> rb = ReplayBuffer(storage=LazyMemmapStorage(10), batch_size=4) >>> data = TensorDict({"a": torch.zeros(10)}, [10]) >>> def t(data): ... data += 1 ... return data >>> rb.append_transform(t, invert=True) >>> rb.extend(data) >>> assert (data == 1).all()
- dumps(path)¶
Saves the replay buffer on disk at the specified path.
- Parameters:
path (Path or str) – path where to save the replay buffer.
Examples
>>> import tempfile >>> import tqdm >>> from torchrl.data import LazyMemmapStorage, TensorDictReplayBuffer >>> from torchrl.data.replay_buffers.samplers import PrioritizedSampler, RandomSampler >>> import torch >>> from tensordict import TensorDict >>> # Build and populate the replay buffer >>> S = 1_000_000 >>> sampler = PrioritizedSampler(S, 1.1, 1.0) >>> # sampler = RandomSampler() >>> storage = LazyMemmapStorage(S) >>> rb = TensorDictReplayBuffer(storage=storage, sampler=sampler) >>> >>> for _ in tqdm.tqdm(range(100)): ... td = TensorDict({"obs": torch.randn(100, 3, 4), "next": {"obs": torch.randn(100, 3, 4)}, "td_error": torch.rand(100)}, [100]) ... rb.extend(td) ... sample = rb.sample(32) ... rb.update_tensordict_priority(sample) >>> # save and load the buffer >>> with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as tmpdir: ... rb.dumps(tmpdir) ... ... sampler = PrioritizedSampler(S, 1.1, 1.0) ... # sampler = RandomSampler() ... storage = LazyMemmapStorage(S) ... rb_load = TensorDictReplayBuffer(storage=storage, sampler=sampler) ... rb_load.loads(tmpdir) ... assert len(rb) == len(rb_load)
- empty()¶
Empties the replay buffer and reset cursor to 0.
- extend(tensordicts: TensorDictBase) Tensor [source]¶
Extends the replay buffer with one or more elements contained in an iterable.
If present, the inverse transforms will be called.`
- Parameters:
data (iterable) – collection of data to be added to the replay buffer.
- Returns:
Indices of the data added to the replay buffer.
Warning
extend()
can have an ambiguous signature when dealing with lists of values, which should be interpreted either as PyTree (in which case all elements in the list will be put in a slice in the stored PyTree in the storage) or a list of values to add one at a time. To solve this, TorchRL makes the clear-cut distinction between list and tuple: a tuple will be viewed as a PyTree, a list (at the root level) will be interpreted as a stack of values to add one at a time to the buffer. ForListStorage
instances, only unbound elements can be provided (no PyTrees).
- insert_transform(index: int, transform: Transform, *, invert: bool = False) ReplayBuffer ¶
Inserts transform.
Transforms are executed in order when sample is called.
- Parameters:
index (int) – Position to insert the transform.
transform (Transform) – The transform to be appended
- Keyword Arguments:
invert (bool, optional) – if
True
, the transform will be inverted (forward calls will be called during writing and inverse calls during reading). Defaults toFalse
.
- loads(path)¶
Loads a replay buffer state at the given path.
The buffer should have matching components and be saved using
dumps()
.- Parameters:
path (Path or str) – path where the replay buffer was saved.
See
dumps()
for more info.
- register_load_hook(hook: Callable[[Any], Any])¶
Registers a load hook for the storage.
Note
Hooks are currently not serialized when saving a replay buffer: they must be manually re-initialized every time the buffer is created.
- register_save_hook(hook: Callable[[Any], Any])¶
Registers a save hook for the storage.
Note
Hooks are currently not serialized when saving a replay buffer: they must be manually re-initialized every time the buffer is created.
- sample(batch_size: Optional[int] = None, return_info: bool = False, include_info: Optional[bool] = None) TensorDictBase [source]¶
Samples a batch of data from the replay buffer.
Uses Sampler to sample indices, and retrieves them from Storage.
- Parameters:
batch_size (int, optional) – size of data to be collected. If none is provided, this method will sample a batch-size as indicated by the sampler.
return_info (bool) – whether to return info. If True, the result is a tuple (data, info). If False, the result is the data.
- Returns:
A tensordict containing a batch of data selected in the replay buffer. A tuple containing this tensordict and info if return_info flag is set to True.
- set_sampler(sampler: Sampler)¶
Sets a new sampler in the replay buffer and returns the previous sampler.
- set_storage(storage: Storage, collate_fn: Optional[Callable] = None)¶
Sets a new storage in the replay buffer and returns the previous storage.
- Parameters:
storage (Storage) – the new storage for the buffer.
collate_fn (callable, optional) – if provided, the collate_fn is set to this value. Otherwise it is reset to a default value.
- property write_count¶
The total number of items written so far in the buffer through add and extend.
