# Command-line usage guide for `minimax.evaluate`
|
||
|
|
||
|
You can evaluate student agent checkpoints using `minimax.evaluate` as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```bash
|
||
|
python -m minimax.evaluate \
|
||
|
--seed 1 \
|
||
|
--log_dir <absolute path log directory> \
|
||
|
--xpid_prefix <select checkpoints with xpids matching this prefix> \
|
||
|
--env_names <csv string of test environment names> \
|
||
|
--n_episodes <number of trials per test environment> \
|
||
|
--results_path <path to results folder> \
|
||
|
--results_fname <filename of output results csv>
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Some behaviors of `minimax.evaluate` to be aware of:
|
||
|
- This command will search `log_dir` for all experiment directories with names matching `xpid_prefix` and evaluate the checkpoint named `<checkpoint_name>.pkl`.
|
||
|
- `minimax.evaluate` assumes xpid values end with a unique index, so that they match the regex `.*_[0-9]+$`.
|
||
|
- The results will be averaged over all such checkpoints (at most one checkpoint per matching experiment folder). Using the `--xpid_prefix` argument can be useful for evaluating corresponding to the same experimental configuration with different training seeds (and thus share an xpid prefix, e.g. <xpid_prefix_0>, <xpid_prefix_1>, <xpid_prefix_2>).
|
||
|
|
||
|
If you would like to evaluate a checkpoint for only a single experiment, specify the full experiment directory name using `--xpid` instead of using `--xpid_prefix`.

## All command-line arguments
|
||
|
| Argument | Description |
|
||
|
| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
|
| `seed` | Random seed for evaluation |
|
||
|
| `log_dir` | Directory containing experiment folders |
|
||
|
| `xpid` | Name of experiment folder, i.e. the experiment ID |
|
||
|
| `xpid_prefix` | Evaluate and average results over checkpoints for experiments with experiment IDs matching this prefix (ignores `--xpid` if set) |
|
||
|
| `checkpoint_name` | Name of checkpoint to evaluate (in each matching experiment folder) |
|
||
|
| `env_names` | Number of devices over which to shard the environment batch dimension |
|
||
|
| `n_episodes` | Number of students in the autocurriculum |
|
||
|
| `agent_idxs` | Indices of student agents to evaluate (csv of indices or `*` for all indices) |
|
||
|
| `results_path` | Number of parallel environments |
|
||
|
| `results_fname` | Number of parallel trials per environment (environment) |
|
||
|
| `render_mode` | If set, renders the evaluation episode. Requires disabling JIT. Use `'ipython'` if rendering inside an IPython notebook. |
