Unity ML-Agents Toolkit

(latest release) (all releases)

The Unity Machine Learning Agents Toolkit (ML-Agents) is an open-source project that enables games and simulations to serve as environments for training intelligent agents. We provide implementations (based on PyTorch) of state-of-the-art algorithms to enable game developers and hobbyists to easily train intelligent agents for 2D, 3D and VR/AR games. Researchers can also use the provided simple-to-use Python API to train Agents using reinforcement learning, imitation learning, neuroevolution, or any other methods. These trained agents can be used for multiple purposes, including controlling NPC behavior (in a variety of settings such as multi-agent and adversarial), automated testing of game builds and evaluating different game design decisions pre-release. The ML-Agents Toolkit is mutually beneficial for both game developers and AI researchers as it provides a central platform where advances in AI can be evaluated on Unity’s rich environments and then made accessible to the wider research and game developer communities.

Features

  • 18+ example Unity environments
  • Support for multiple environment configurations and training scenarios
  • Flexible Unity SDK that can be integrated into your game or custom Unity scene
  • Support for training single-agent, multi-agent cooperative, and multi-agent competitive scenarios via several Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithms (PPO, SAC, MA-POCA, self-play).
  • Support for learning from demonstrations through two Imitation Learning algorithms (BC and GAIL).
  • Easily definable Curriculum Learning scenarios for complex tasks
  • Train robust agents using environment randomization
  • Flexible agent control with On Demand Decision Making
  • Train using multiple concurrent Unity environment instances
  • Utilizes the Unity Inference Engine to provide native cross-platform support
  • Unity environment control from Python
  • Wrap Unity learning environments as a gym

See our ML-Agents Overview page for detailed descriptions of all these features.

Releases & Documentation

Our latest, stable release is Release 19. Click here to get started with the latest release of ML-Agents.

The table below lists all our releases, including our main branch which is under active development and may be unstable. A few helpful guidelines:

  • The Versioning page overviews how we manage our GitHub releases and the versioning process for each of the ML-Agents components.
  • The Releases page contains details of the changes between releases.
  • The Migration page contains details on how to upgrade from earlier releases of the ML-Agents Toolkit.
  • The Documentation links in the table below include installation and usage instructions specific to each release. Remember to always use the documentation that corresponds to the release version you're using.
  • The com.unity.ml-agents package is verified for Unity 2020.1 and later. Verified packages releases are numbered 1.0.x.

If you are a researcher interested in a discussion of Unity as an AI platform, see a pre-print of our reference paper on Unity and the ML-Agents Toolkit.

If you use Unity or the ML-Agents Toolkit to conduct research, we ask that you cite the following paper as a reference:

Additional Resources

We have a Unity Learn course, ML-Agents: Hummingbirds, that provides a gentle introduction to Unity and the ML-Agents Toolkit.

We've also partnered with CodeMonkeyUnity to create a series of tutorial videos on how to implement and use the ML-Agents Toolkit.

We have also published a series of blog posts that are relevant for ML-Agents:
