|
|
DonkeyCar RL Autoresearch Controller — Phase 1 (Real Training)
|
|
=============================================================
|
|
Uses Gaussian Process + UCB Bayesian optimization to propose
|
|
hyperparameters for REAL PPO/DQN training runs (not random policy).
|
|
|
|
Each trial:
|
|
1. GP+UCB proposes next hyperparameters
|
|
2. Launches donkeycar_sb3_runner.py with REAL training
|
|
3. Runner saves a trained model to disk
|
|
4. Controller records result, updates GP, tracks champion
|
|
5. Repeat
|
|
|
|
Results go to: outerloop-results/autoresearch_results_phase1.jsonl
|
|
Champion: models/champion/model.zip + manifest.json
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
python3 autoresearch_controller.py --trials 50 --explore 2.0 --push-every 10
|
|
|
|
Stop at any time with Ctrl+C. Restart and it picks up from existing results.
