It should be from the root of this repository, but it is possible this wont run anymore because director and tensorflow APIs were unstable them and have changed a lot since. I'm currently rewriting it to remove the director dependency and use a stable version of tensorflow to help with that. |
That might explain... oh great would definitely like to keep updated on that! |
can i ask when you might be finished with your up to date version? look forward to seeing it |
Sorry I’m on vacation this week. I’m hoping for sometime in the next two weeks. |
awesome, enjoy! |
Any update on the progress on removing the director dependancy? |
Sorry I've been distracted by some other tasks. So far I have managed to completely replace the director dependency with a simple |
That sounds great, pygame has proved really useful. Any idea when you might complete it? Would love to give it a try. |
Managed to get it running by using ubuntu rather than Mac, awesome stuff! |
Sorry I took so long to get back to you. I've been busy so I had put this on hold for a while, but I will pick it back up this week. I can't really commit to an ETA to be honest. I haven't written any paper explicitly on this, but I have outlined this in one section of a larger project. I'm attaching the relevant parts below. |
No problem at all. I managed to get the simulator up and running on Ubuntu and I'm amazed by the result, awesome work! I have 2 quick questions after reading your document. Thanks! |
When you run As for zooming in, I don't remember and I don't have director set up right now. I believe it was just a mouse wheel or something. Otherwise, you might be ale to find something in director's user guide. |
thanks for the help! |
One more question sorry! running 'director simulator.py --help' pulls up the option for arguments for obstacle density, learning rate etc. Apologies if it's obvious but how would I change these values and run? This work has been very helpful, would love to be able to donate if you have somewhere I can do that! |
No worries! You can add command-line arguments as follows:
The order of the arguments doesn't matter. You would want to set the learning rate and exploration to 0 when done training to get nice results. Ideally, this would simply decrease automatically, but I haven't had time to do that yet. Thanks for the kind words! I don't have anything set up for personal donations, but this work is being used for a drone we're developing at McGill Robotics (a non-profit student organization) and we will be accepting donations in our upcoming Seeds of Change campaign next week if you're interested. Thanks again! |
Great that works well thanks! I'd be more than happy to make a donation to the campaign, just send me a link! |
Hey! If the opportunity is there I would still like to donate to the campaign as thanks for the help provided! |
Hey @Jman123456 Sorry, the campaign was delayed for a bit, but was finally launched here: https://mcgill.ca/seedsofchange/project/mcgill-robotics Thanks! |
Hi,
I think I have set everything up correctly, where should I run 'director simulator.py' in order to properly produce a result? is their a specific command that should be used?
Thanks!
