CAIAC (Causal Action Influence Aware Counterfactual Data Augmentation)

Code for the paper "Causal Action Influence Aware Counterfactual Data Augmentation", accepted to ICML 2024.

Installation

CAIAC can be installed by unzipping the code file, accessing the folder and doing the following (I recommend creating a separate virtual environment for it).

cd causal_skill_learning
virtualenv venv
pip install -e .

Training

CAIAC requires 2 steps: training a world model from a dataset required for CAI computation and training the downstream algorithm leveraging the counterfactual data augmentation.

Traning world model

Downloading the dataset

To train the world model you need to download the provided datasets (in the folder data of the zipped file ) and put it inside the causal_slr folder in the CAIAC codebase.

Activate the environment:

source venv/bin/activate

Run the code:

python3 main.py  'path_to_name_world_model_yaml_file'

where path_to_name_world_model_yaml_file is a YAML file containing the parameters for the world model training.

For Fetch-Push experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/fetch/fetchpush.yaml

For Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/fpp/fpp.yaml

For Franka-Kitchen experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/kitchen/config.yaml

For the FrankaKitchen experiments the path to the training dataset can be set in the YAML file using path_data variable:

  • kitchen/all_datasets_and_random.npy (for the all_tasks experiment)
  • kitchen/mw_counterfactual_kettle.npy (for the toy example)

For the Fetch-Push and Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments the data is automatically loaded but one can modify the ratios of expert data (expert_data), random data (random_data) and ratio of the original dataset size (shrink_dataset) by modifying the corresponding parameters in the YAML file.

The trained world models will be saved in: experiments/model_learning/{sweep_name}/timestamp where {sweep_name} parameter can be set in the corresponding YAML file.

Counterfactual data creation and training downstream algorithms

Run the code:

python3 main.py  'path_to_alg_yaml_file'

where 'path_to_alg_yaml_file' is a YAML file containing the parameters for the downstream learning algorithm and counterfactuals samples creation.

For Fetch-Push experiments:

  • causal_slr/rl_training/configs/rl_push.yaml

For Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments:

  • causal_slr/rl_training/configs/fpp.yaml

For Franka-Kitchen experiments:

  • causal_slr/skill_training/configs/mw_kettle/config.yaml (for toy experiment)
  • causal_slr/skill_training/configs/kitchen/config.yaml (for all tasks experiment)

In the corresponding YAML file one can specify which influence detection scorer_cls method to be used:

  • cai is the default, as used for CAIAC
  • coda for the CoDA baseline (more below)
  • mask for the CoDA-action ablation baseline (more below)
  • one can set prob_counterfactual or ratio_cf param to 0.0, to implement the No-Augmentation baseline.

In the YAML file one needs to provide the {SAVED_MODEL_PATH} to the trained world model by setting the variable: preset_mdp_config_path in the corresponding YAML file.

For the kitchen experiments the path to the training dataset can be set in the YAML file under {dataset_name} (although it should be the same one as the one used for training the world model) - kitchen/all_datasets_and_random.npy (for the all_tasks experiment) - kitchen/mw_counterfactual_kettle.npy (for the toy example) Additionally, the user can decide which tasks to evaluate the agent on by setting the tasks parameter (e.g.: tasks: ['microwave', 'kettle']) and to whether randomly initialize the objects at evaluation time using the random_init_obs variable (we set it to True for all our experiments.)

For the Fetch-Push examples the data is automatically loaded but one can modify the ratios of expert data (expert_data), random data (random_data) and ratio of the original dataset size (shr_data) by modifying the corresponding parameters in the YAML file (although we used the same ratios as the ones used for training the world model)

Visualize trained agents:

python3 main_eval.py 'path_to_conf_yaml'

where 'path_to_conf_yaml' is the path the configuration created in the experiments results folder, ex: experiments/skill_learning/caiac_kitchen/conf.yaml

Minor code adaptation (to be modified)

Currently, to be able to modify the required tasks in the Franka-Kitchen environment, our adapted Franka-Kitchen implementation (inheriting from D4RL env) requires a slight modification in the source code of D4RL. For reproducibility, hence, please add the following function in the class KitchenV0 defined in venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/d4rl/kitchen/adept_envs/franka/kitchen_multitask_v0.py:

def set_tasks(self, tasks):
    self.TASK_ELEMENTS = tasks

Data collection for Fetch-Push and Fetch-Pick&Lift

The data for the Fetch-Push and Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments were obtained by training an online agent via DDPG on the environment DisentangledFetchPush-2B-v0. The scripts for doing so are in the data_collection folder. (Requirements mpi4py) For training run the code:

mpirun -np 8 python3 data_collection/train_online_agent.py  --env-name DisentangledFetchPush-2B-v0

The trained models will be saved in `data_collection/saved_models/{env-name}/ (unless the save_dir variable is modified in the args)

To collect data with the trained agent:

python3 data_collection/collect_data.py --env-name DisentangledFetchPush-2B-v0

in case you want to run a random policy add the --random as an argument.

Visualizing trained agents

To visualize the trained models:

python3 data_collection/run_trained_agent.py --env-name {env_name} --model-path {path_to_model}

Baselines

We implemented several baselines, namely CoDA, its ablation CoDA-action and RSC.

Training world model

For CoDA, CoDA-action and RSC, first you need to train the world model (we used a transformer) and the parameters in the following YAML files. For Fetch-Push experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/fetch/transformer.yaml (CoDA and CoDA-action)

For Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/fpp/dyna_transformer.yaml (CoDA and CoDA-action)

For Franka-Kitchen experiments:

  • causal_slr/model_training/configs/kitchen/config_transformer.yaml (CoDA and CoDA-action)

Counterfactual data creation and training downstream algorithms

For Fetch-Push experiments:

  • causal_slr/rl_training/configs/rl_push.yaml (CoDA and CoDA-action) changing scorer_cls to coda or mask respectively.

For Fetch-Pick&Lift experiments:

  • causal_slr/rl_training/configs/fpp.yaml (CoDA and CoDA-action) changing scorer_cls to coda or mask respectively.

For Franka-Kitchen experiments:

  • causal_slr/skill_training/configs/mw_kettle/config.yaml (for toy experiment) (CoDA and CoDA-action) changing scorer_cls to coda or mask respectively.
  • causal_slr/skill_training/configs/kitchen/config.yaml (for all tasks experiment) (CoDA and CoDA-action) changing scorer_cls to coda or mask respectively.
