RLgraph: Flexible Computation Graphs for Deep Reinforcement Learning.

Reinforcement learning (RL) tasks are challenging to implement, execute and test due to algorithmic instability, hyper-parameter sensitivity, and heterogeneous distributed communication patterns. We argue for the separation of logical component composition, backend graph definition, and distributed execution. To this end, we introduce RLgraph, a library for designing and executing high performance RL computation graphs in both static graph and define-by-run paradigms. The resulting implementations yield high performance across different deep learning frameworks and distributed backends.
