Simulation environments

Virtual environments make it possible to simulate thousands to millions of gameplays, at no other cost than the computations. For the purpose of benchmarking different reinforcement learning algorithms, simulation environments have been developed by the research community.

In order to find the solutions that generalize well, the Open-AI non-profit artificial intelligence research company, associated with business magnate Elon Musk, that aims to carefully promote and develop friendly AI in such a way as to benefit humanity as a whole, has gathered in its open source simulation environment, Open-AI Gym (https://gym.openai.com/), a collection of reinforcement tasks and environments in a Python toolkit to test our own approaches on them. Among these environments, you'll find:

  • Video games from Atari 2600, a home video game console released by Atari Inc in 1977, wrapping the simulator from the Arcade Learning Environment, one of the most common RL benchmark environment...
