InstructRL

This is a Jax implementation for the InstructRL method.

Paper: Instruction-Following Agents with Jointly Pre-Trained Vision-Language Models.

model archiecture

This implementation has been tested on GPU and Google Cloud TPU and supports multi-host training with TPU Pods.

The code supports the following methods and baselines

From scratch: Training transformer policy from scratch w/ and w/o instructions.
CLIP-RL: Training transformer policy with pretrained OpenAI CLIP-VIT w/ and w/o instructions.
InstructRL: Training transformer policy with pretrained multimodal MAE encoding w/ and w/o instructions.

The code also supports training and evaluating with both continuous and discretized robot action.

Installation

If this is on GPU, install CoppeliaSim with coppeliasim script, then install the dependencies with pip.

cat gpu_requirements.txt | xargs -n 1 -L 1 pip install

If this is on TPU, install the dependencies using the TPU setup script. After installing dependencies, add this repo directory to your PYTHONPATH environment variable

export PYTHONPATH="$PYTHONPATH:$(pwd)"

Usage

Experiments can be launched via the following commands.

The model.transfer_type argument determines pretrained transformers, with the following options supported

VIT training from scratch "None"
M3AE pretrained model "m3ae_vit_b16" (with larger models coming soon)
CLIP pretrained model "clip_vit_b32" and "clip_vit_b16"

The model.model_type argument determines the type of trained from scratch policy transformer, it can be one of vit_small, vit_base, and vit_large.

For large-scale training (e.g. training on near 100 tasks), it is recommended to use large TPU pod. We provide the job script for launching large-scale training in jobs.

Evaluating trained model

Data generation

Our preprocessed single-task and multi-task data will be released soon. In order to facilitate large scale training on cloud, we store all the dataset as HDF5 files and read them from cloud storage buckets. The HDF5 data contains images, states and actions. An example of data generation can be found in collect_data script.

Acknowledgement

The Multimodal MAE implementation is largely based on m3ae and the CLIP implementation is largely based on scenic.
