This toolkit provides an efficient implementation for researchers and practitioners in reinforcement learning, but it is incremental as it builds on existing methods.

The authors introduced CytonRL, an open-source reinforcement learning toolkit implemented in C++ that includes four deep Q-learning algorithms, achieving competitive performance on the Atari game Breakout.

This paper presents an open-source enforcement learning toolkit named CytonRL (https://github.com/arthurxlw/cytonRL). The toolkit implements four recent advanced deep Q-learning algorithms from scratch using C++ and NVIDIA's GPU-accelerated libraries. The code is simple and elegant, owing to an open-source general-purpose neural network library named CytonLib. Benchmark shows that the toolkit achieves competitive performances on the popular Atari game of Breakout.
