EDO-CS

Description : This package includes the Python code of the EDO-CS algorithm [1] for finding a set of policies having both high rewards and diverse behaviors in reinforcement learning. In each iteration, the policies are divided into several clusters based on their behaviors, and a high-quality policy is selected from each cluster for reproduction. EDO-CS also adaptively balances the importance between quality and diversity in the reproduction process. Experiments on continuous MuJoCo locomotion tasks from the OpenAI Gym library [2], show the superior performance of EDO-CS. README files are included in the package, showing how to use the code.
