ArkanAI 🧱🧠

Arkanoid with Deep Q-Learning using TensorFlow.js.

Features

• Double online and target networks
• Dueling architecture -> Advantage + Value = Q
• Prioritized experience replay Combined experience replay

Upcoming

• Noisy network replacing ε-greedy exploration
• 🌈 ??

Requires

• Node v18.14.1
• npm v9.5.0
• Node.js native addon build tool → node-gyp (required by @tensorflow/tfjs-node, or alternatively use @tensorflow/tfjs which doesn't require compilation)

Installation

npm ci

Usage

npm run start # serves game at http://localhost:3000 and starts agent at http://localhost:5000 concurrently

Settings

• index.js

const agentSettings = {
  epsilon: 1, // Exploration rate
  epsilonDecay: 0.00005, // Exploration decay
  epsilonMin: 0.01, // Exploration minimum
  gamma: 0.95, // Discount factor
