README

Fork of http://code.google.com/p/libcrl/ to add more experimental rl and planning algorithms, domain template and multiagent support, etc.

It is currently maintained at https://github.com/robbel/libcrlext.

How do I get set up?

• Install scons, boost, gsl, zlib, and clang++3.5 (or, alternatively, change compiler in each SConstruct file)
• Deprecated: lpsolve (5.5) is required to support the ALP solver. Required is the static library version that was compiled with -fPIC (e.g. liblpsolve55-dev in Ubuntu). Note: For cplex model export, lpsolve's libxli_CPLEX has to be compiled from source.
• Instead of lpsolve, we now use Gurobi as the ALP solver. An academic license can be obtained from the Gurobi website
• Install RLGlueCore, e.g. via the version 3.04 DEB package from the rl-glue website
• For approximate inference support in larger ALPs, the latest development version of libDAI from git is required. Our extensions (max-plus) currently require an additional patch before compilation, see libdai.git.patch in the external directory.
• Optional: Install the latest version of SPUDD to support model file export and policy import. Note: on 64bit architectures, needs Makefile changes to use -fPIC switch.
• For unit tests, the Google Test framework is used (use libgtest-dev in Ubuntu). Note: Some versions of Ubuntu require an additional compilation step, see here.
• Adjust the paths in setpaths.sh to mimic your installation. Source them into the current shell via . setpaths.sh
• To compile, invoke scons in every folder, starting with external (the dependencies, which need to be installed), then libcrl (the main library), rlgnmn (the network wrapper), and then the remaining ones in arbitrary order
