As an example, an observation could consist of a flat “robot0_eef_pos” observation key, and a 3-channel RGB “agentview_image” observation key.

class robomimic.models.obs_nets.MIMO_MLP(input_obs_group_shapes, output_shapes, layer_dims, layer_func=<class 'torch.nn.modules.linear.Linear'>, activation=<class 'torch.nn.modules.activation.ReLU'>, encoder_kwargs=None)#

Bases: robomimic.models.base_nets.Module

Extension to MLP to accept multiple observation dictionaries as input and to output dictionaries of tensors. Inputs are specified as a dictionary of observation dictionaries, with each key corresponding to an observation group.

This module utilizes @ObservationGroupEncoder to process the multiple input dictionaries and @ObservationDecoder to generate tensor dictionaries. The default behavior for encoding the inputs is to process visual inputs with a learned CNN and concatenating the flat encodings with the other flat inputs. The default behavior for generating outputs is to use a linear layer branch to produce each modality separately (including visual outputs).

forward(**inputs)#

Process each set of inputs in its own observation group.

Parameters

inputs (dict) – a dictionary of dictionaries with one dictionary per observation group. Each observation group’s dictionary should map modality to torch.Tensor batches. Should be consistent with @self.input_obs_group_shapes.

Returns

dictionary of output torch.Tensors, that corresponds

to @self.output_shapes

Return type

outputs (dict)

forward(feats)#

Predict each modality from input features, and reshape to each modality’s shape.

output_shape(input_shape=None)#

Returns output shape for this module, which is a dictionary instead of a list since outputs are dictionaries.

training: bool#
class robomimic.models.obs_nets.ObservationEncoder(feature_activation=<class 'torch.nn.modules.activation.ReLU'>)#

Bases: robomimic.models.base_nets.Module

Module that processes inputs by observation key and then concatenates the processed observation keys together. Each key is processed with an encoder head network. Call @register_obs_key to register observation keys with the encoder and then finally call @make to create the encoder networks.

forward(obs_dict)#

Processes modalities according to the ordering in @self.obs_shapes. For each modality, it is processed with a randomizer (if present), an encoder network (if present), and again with the randomizer (if present), flattened, and then concatenated with the other processed modalities.

Parameters

obs_dict (OrderedDict) – dictionary that maps modalities to torch.Tensor batches that agree with @self.obs_shapes. All modalities in @self.obs_shapes must be present, but additional modalities can also be present.

Returns

flat features of shape [B, D]

Return type

Parameters
  • name (str) – modality name

  • shape (int tuple) – shape of modality

  • net_class (str) – name of class in base_nets.py that should be used to process this observation key before concatenation. Pass None to flatten and concatenate the observation key directly.

  • net_kwargs (dict) – arguments to pass to @net_class

  • net (Module instance) – if provided, use this Module to process the observation key instead of creating a different net

  • randomizer (Randomizer instance) – if provided, use this Module to augment observation keys coming in to the encoder, and possibly augment the processed output as well

  • share_net_from (str) – if provided, use the same instance of @net_class as another observation key. This observation key must already exist in this encoder. Warning: Note that this does not share the observation key randomizer

training: bool#
class robomimic.models.obs_nets.ObservationGroupEncoder(observation_group_shapes, feature_activation=<class 'torch.nn.modules.activation.ReLU'>, encoder_kwargs=None)#

Bases: robomimic.models.base_nets.Module

This class allows networks to encode multiple observation dictionaries into a single flat, concatenated vector representation. It does this by assigning each observation dictionary (observation group) an @ObservationEncoder object.

The class takes a dictionary of dictionaries, @observation_group_shapes. Each key corresponds to a observation group (e.g. ‘obs’, ‘subgoal’, ‘goal’) and each OrderedDict should be a map between modalities and expected input shapes (e.g. { ‘image’ : (3, 120, 160) }).

forward(**inputs)#

Process each set of inputs in its own observation group.

Parameters

inputs (dict) – dictionary that maps observation groups to observation dictionaries of torch.Tensor batches that agree with @self.observation_group_shapes. All observation groups in @self.observation_group_shapes must be present, but additional observation groups can also be present. Note that these are specified as kwargs for ease of use with networks that name each observation stream in their forward calls.

Returns

flat outputs of shape [B, D]

Bases: torch.nn.modules.module.Module

A Variational Autoencoder (VAE), as described in https://arxiv.org/abs/1312.6114.

Models a distribution p(X) or a conditional distribution p(X | Y), where each variable can consist of multiple modalities. The target variable X, whose distribution is modeled, is specified through the @input_shapes argument, which is a map between modalities (strings) and expected shapes. In this way, a variable that consists of multiple kinds of data (e.g. image and flat-dimensional) can be modeled as well. A separate @output_shapes argument is used to specify the expected reconstructions - this allows for asymmetric reconstruction (for example, reconstructing low-resolution images).

This implementation supports learning conditional distributions as well (cVAE). The conditioning variable Y is specified through the @condition_shapes argument, which is also a map between modalities (strings) and expected shapes. In this way, variables with multiple kinds of data (e.g. image and flat-dimensional) can jointly be conditioned on. By default, the decoder takes the conditioning variable Y as input. To force the decoder to reconstruct from just the latent, set @decoder_is_conditioned to False (in this case, the prior must be conditioned).

The implementation also supports learning expressive priors instead of using the usual N(0, 1) prior. There are three kinds of priors supported - Gaussian, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and Categorical. For each prior, the parameters can be learned as independent parameters, or be learned as functions of the conditioning variable Y (by setting @prior_is_conditioned).

decode(conditions=None, goals=None, z=None, n=None)#

Pass latents through decoder. Latents should be passed in to this function at train-time for backpropagation, but they can be left out at test-time. In this case, latents will be sampled using the VAE prior.

  • goals (dict) – a dictionary that maps modalities to torch.Tensor batches. These should correspond to goal modalities. Only for cVAEs.

  • z (torch.Tensor) – if provided, these latents are used to generate reconstructions from the VAE, and the prior is not sampled.

class robomimic.models.value_nets.DistributionalActionValueNetwork(obs_shapes, ac_dim, mlp_layer_dims, value_bounds, num_atoms, goal_shapes=None, encoder_kwargs=None)#

Bases: robomimic.models.value_nets.ActionValueNetwork

Distributional Q (action-value) network that outputs a categorical distribution over a discrete grid of value atoms. See https://arxiv.org/pdf/1707.06887.pdf for more details.

forward(obs_dict, acts, goal_dict=None)#

Return mean of critic categorical distribution. Useful for obtaining point estimates of critic values.

Parameters
  • obs_dict (dict) – batch of observations

  • acts (torch.Tensor) – batch of actions

  • goal_dict (dict) – if not None, batch of goal observations

Returns

expectation of value distribution

Return type

mean_value (torch.Tensor)

forward_train(obs_dict, acts, goal_dict=None)#

Return full critic categorical distribution.

Parameters
  • obs_dict (dict) – batch of observations

  • acts (torch.Tensor) – batch of actions

  • goal_dict (dict) – if not None, batch of goal observations

Returns

value_distribution (DiscreteValueDistribution instance)

class robomimic.models.value_nets.ValueNetwork(obs_shapes, mlp_layer_dims, value_bounds=None, goal_shapes=None, encoder_kwargs=None)#

Bases: robomimic.models.obs_nets.MIMO_MLP

A basic value network that predicts values from observations. Can optionally be goal conditioned on future observations.

forward(obs_dict, goal_dict=None)#

Forward through value network, and then optionally use tanh scaling.

output_shape(input_shape=None)#

Function to compute output shape from inputs to this module.

Parameters

input_shape (iterable of int) – shape of input. Does not include batch dimension. Some modules may not need this argument, if their output does not depend on the size of the input, or if they assume fixed size input.

Returns

list of integers corresponding to output shape

Return type

out_shape ([int])
