v1.2.3#

Released on 2023-09-18 - GitHub - PyPI

Gymnasium-Robotics v1.2.3 Release Notes:

Breaking changes:

  • Drop support for Python 3.7 which has reached its end of life. (#159)
  • New v4 version for the AntMaze environments that fix the following issue #155. (#156)

Bug Fixes:

  • Allow to compute rewards from batched observations in maze environments (PointMaze/AntMaze) (#153, #158)
  • Bump AntMaze environments version to v4 which fix issue #155. The following new files have been added to the source code: ant_maze_v4.py and maze_v4.py. (#156). The fixes involve:
    • When the environment is initialized with continuing_task=True, the reward is now calculated before resetting the goal location. Previously the reward was always zero whether the ant reached the goal or not during the full episode.
    • Fix the ant agent being reset into a terminal state. The maze_size_scaling factor was missing in the distance check in MazeEnv.generate_reset_pos().
    • Add success item to info return. info["success"].
  • Fix goal_cell and reset_cell assertions when reset maze environments (#164, #179)
  • Fix issue #166 in FrankaKitchen environment. info["tasks_to_complete"] was not giving the correct values. (#169)

New Features

  • Add reset_target boolean argument for initializing maze environments. If reset_target=True and continuing_task=True, the goal will be automatically placed in a new location when the agent reaches it in the same episode. If reset_target=False and continuing_task=True, the goal location won't be updated when reached by the agent and reward will be accumulated as long as the agent stays around the goal threshold. (#167, #170)
  • For maze environments, if the goal and reset cell locations are not given in the maze map structuree, they will be chosen automatically among empty cells. (#170)

Dependency Updates

  • Remove restrictions on numpy version, numpy>=1.21.0 (#154)
  • Remove restrictions on mujoco version, mujoco>=2.3.3 (#171)
  • Restrict cython version to cython<3 due to the following issue Farama-Foundation/Gymnasium#616, (#162)

Documentation Updates

  • Replace main logo svg format with png (#160)
  • Update sphinx to latest version (#157)
  • Add release notes changelog (#174)
  • Remove versioning for included environments in documentation and update gifs for maze environments (#172, #177)
  • Fix table format for Shadow Dexterous Hand - Reach environment (#178)

v1.2.1#

Released on 2023-05-16 - GitHub - PyPI

Gymnasium-Robotics 1.2.1 Release Notes:

This minor release adds new Multi-agent environments from the MaMuJoCo project. These environments have been updated to follow the PettingZoo API and use the latest mujoco bindings. In addition, the updates made for the first release of FrankaKitchen-v1 environment have been reverted in order for the environment to resemble more its original version in relay-policy-learning and D4RL. This will solve existing confusion with the action space (#135) and facilitate the re-creation of datasets in Minari.

We are also pining the mujoco version to v2.3.3 until we address the following issue (google-deepmind/mujoco#833).

Breaking Changes

  • Revert FrankaKitchen-v1 environment to original. @rodrigodelazcano in #145. These changes involve:
    • robot model: use the Franka robot model of the original environment instead of the model provided in mujoco_menagerie
    • action space: remove the Inverse Kinematic control option and maintain a single action space, the original joint velocity control.
    • goal tasks: some task have been removed which were not present in the original environment (top_right_burner and bottom_right_burner). Also the tasks name now match the original naming.

New Features

Bug Fixes

  • Add missing underscore to fix rendering by @frankroeder in #102
  • Correct point_obs slicing for achieved_goal in PointMaze environments by @dohmjan in #105
  • Update the position of the goal every reset in AntMaze environment by @nicehiro in #106
  • Correct FetchReach environment versioning from v3 to v2 by @aalmuzairee in #121
  • Fix issue #128 . Use jnt_doafdr instead of nt_qposadr for the mujoco_utils.get_joint_qvel() utility function. by @rodrigodelazcano in #129
  • Correct x, y scaling for Maze environments @rodrigodelazcano in #110
  • Fix door state space key by @rodrigodelazcano in #130
  • Make getter functions for qpos / qvel return copies by @hueds in #136

v1.2.0: Version 1.2.0#

Released on 2023-01-09 - GitHub - PyPI

Finally here! 🥳 🤖

Refactored versions of the D4RL MuJoCo environments are now available in Gymnasium-Robotics (PointMaze, AntMaze, AdroitHand, and FrankaKitchen). The configuration of these environments is not identically to the originals, please read the new details in the documentation webpage at https://robotics.farama.org/

Moving forward, we are recreating the offline datasets with Minari and evaluating the environments.

v1.0.1: Deprecate package name (`gym_robotics`->`gymnasium_robotics`)#

Released on 2022-10-03 - GitHub - PyPI

What's Changed

The PyPi package name for this repository will be changed in future releases and integration with Gymnasium. The new name will be gymnasium_robotics and installation will be done with pip install gymnasium_robotics instead of pip install gym_robotics.

The code for gym_robotics will be kept in the repository branch gym-robotics-legacy

Bug Fix

  • Remove the warning of duplicated registration of the environment MujocoHandBlockEnv @leonasting

v1.0.0: Update to Gym v0.26 and new mujoco bindings#

Released on 2022-09-15 - GitHub - PyPI

This new release comes with the following changes:

  • Compatibility with gym v0.26. Previous gym versions won't be compatible with this release. @rodrigodelazcano
  • Added new environment versions that depend on the new mujoco python bindings. @rodrigodelazcano
  • Old environment versions that depend on mujoco_py are still kept but will be unmaintained moving forward. @rodrigodelazcano
  • New utility methods for GoalEnv class as suggested in #16 . compute_terminated and compute_truncated @rodrigodelazcano

The new versions of the environments that depend on mujoco bindings were validated with respect to the old versions of mujoco_py. The benchmark was performed using TQC + HER (sb3 implementation) with the same hyperparameters for both environment versions. The results can be seen here: https://wandb.ai/rodrigodelazcano/gym_robotics/reports/Benchmark-Gym-Robotics-SB3--VmlldzoyMjc3Mzkw
