SARSA Frozen Lake

Introduction

This project aims to train a SARSA agent to learn policies in the Frozen Lake environment from OpenAI gym.

Frozen Lake

Frozen Lake is an environment where an agent is able to move a character in a grid world. Starting from the state S, the agent aims to move the character to the goal state G for a reward of 1. Although the agent can pick one of four possible actions at each state including left, down, right, up, it only succeeds $\frac{1}{3}$ of the times due to the slippery frozen state F. The agent is likely to move to any other directions for the remaining $\frac{2}{3}$ times evenly. Additionally, stepping in a hole state H will lead to a bad ending with a reward of 0.

  • S: Start State
  • G: Goal State
  • F: Slippery State
  • H: Hole State
