ActorValueOperator

class torchrl.modules.tensordict_module.ActorValueOperator(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Actor-value operator.

This class wraps together an actor and a value model that share a common observation embedding network:

Note

For a similar class that returns an action and a Quality value \(Q(s, a)\) see ActorCriticOperator. For a version without common embeddig refet to ActorCriticWrapper.

To facilitate the workflow, this class comes with a get_policy_operator() and get_value_operator() methods, which will both return a standalone TDModule with the dedicated functionality.

Parameters:
  • common_operator (TensorDictModule) – a common operator that reads observations and produces a hidden variable

  • policy_operator (TensorDictModule) – a policy operator that reads the hidden variable and returns an action

  • value_operator (TensorDictModule) – a value operator, that reads the hidden variable and returns a value
