Coupled Half Cheetah#

This Environment is one of the new environments introduced with MaMuJoCo. The environment consists of 2 half cheetahs coupled by an elastic tendon.

Action Space#

The action spaces is depended on the partitioning.

if partitioning is None:#

Part partition

(bfoot0, bshin0, bthigh0, ffoot0, fshin0, fthigh0, bfoot1, bshin1, bthigh1, ffoot1, fshin1, fthigh1,),

If partitioning, is None, then the environment contains a single agent with the same action space.

Observation Space#

Observation Categories

Default local_categories

[["qpos", "qvel", "ten_J", "ten_length,ten_velocity"], ["qpos"]]

Default global_categories

("qpos", "qvel")

Supported observation categories

"qpos", "qvel", "ten_J", "ten_length,ten_velocity"

Besides the local observation of each agent (which depend on their parts of the agent, the observation categories and the observation depth), each agent also observes the position and velocity items in each cheetah’s top.

Rewards#

All agents receive the same average reward of each cheetah.

Starting state#

The starting state of the environment is the as Gymnasium’s Half Cheetah (but with 2 cheetahs).

Episode End#

All agent terminate and truncate at the same time, given the same conditions as Gymnasium’s Half Cheetah.
