  Why:

  CURRENT

  Modular, optimized implementations of common deep RL algorithms in PyTorch, with unified infrastructure supporting all three major families of model-free algorithms: policy gradient, deep-q learning, and q-function policy gradient. Intended to be a high-throughput code-base for small- to medium-scale research (large-scale meaning like OpenAI Dota with 100's GPUs).

  **rlpyt** is a high-throughput, modular deep reinforcement learning framework in PyTorch, designed for efficient research experiments. It provides optimized implementations of core RL algorithms, supporting all major model-free families (policy gradient, deep-q learning, q-function policy gradient) with robust parallelization and multi-GPU capabilities for small- to medium-scale research.
