[Question] Plotting Smoothed Evaluation Curve

[Zachary-Fernandes]

❓ Question

Hello, I have a question regarding plotting in rl-baselines3-zoo. For plotting the evaluation curves, is there an option to smooth them like one could when plotting the training curves through a rolling window? If not, could one use the same window_func() the training plotter uses or how else would one go about it? I am curious why smoothing is not available. Below is the training curve with a rolling window of 500 and the evaluation curve with no rolling window.

Checklist

• I have checked that there is no similar issue in the repo
• I have read the SB3 documentation
• I have read the RL Zoo documentation
• If code there is, it is minimal and working
• If code there is, it is formatted using the markdown code blocks for both code and stack traces.

Hello,

s, is there an option to smooth them like one could when plotting the training curves through a rolling window?

There is no option currently, but normally for the evaluation you should have multiple runs and they will smooth out things (this is the all_plot.py script, example is in the doc).

If not, could one use the same window_func() the training plotter uses or how else would one go about it?

you can probably re-use it or see if seaborn has an option for that. (please share your code if you have something working ;))
