This code implements a basic simulation and control for full-body Musculoskeletal system. Skeletal movements are driven by the actuation of the muscles, coordinated by activation levels. Interfacing with python and pytorch, it is available to use Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL) algorithm such as Proximal Policy Optimization(PPO).

sudo apt-get install libtinyxml-dev libeigen3-dev libxi-dev libxmu-dev freeglut3-dev libassimp-dev libpython3-dev python3-tk python3-numpy virtualenv ipython3 cmake-curses-guiWe strongly recommand that you install boost libraries from the source code (not apt-get, etc...).
-
Download boost sources with the version over 1.66.(https://www.boost.org/users/history/version_1_66_0.html)
-
Compile and Install the sources
cd /path/to/boost_1_xx/
./bootstrap.sh --with-python=python3
sudo ./b2 --with-python --with-filesystem --with-system --with-regex install- Check yourself that the libraries are installed well in your directory
/usr/local/. (or/usr/)
If installed successfully, you should have something like
Include
/usr/local/include/boost//usr/local/include/boost/python//usr/local/include/boost/python/numpy
Lib
/usr/local/lib/libboost_filesystem.so/usr/local/lib/libboost_python3.so/usr/local/lib/libboost_numpy3.so
Please refer to http://dartsim.github.io/ (Install version 6.3)
If you are trying to use latest version, rendering codes should be changed according to the version. It is recommended to use the exact 6.3 version.
You should first activate virtualenv.
virtualenv /path/to/venv --python=python3
source /path/to/venv/bin/activate- pytorch(https://pytorch.org/)
pip3 install http://download.pytorch.org/whl/cpu/torch-0.4.1-cp35-cp35m-linux_x86_64.whl
pip3 install torchvision- numpy, matplotlib
pip3 install numpy matplotlib ipythonOur system require a reference motion to imitate. We provide sample references such as walking, running, and etc...
To learn and simulate, we should provide such a meta data. We provide default meta data in /data/metadata.txt. We parse the text and set the environment. Please note that the learning settings and the test settings should be equal.(metadata.txt should not be changed.)
mkdir build

cd python
source /path/to/virtualenv/
python3 main.py -d ../data/metadata.txtAll the training networks are saved in /nn folder.

./render/render ../data/metadata.txt ../nn/xxx.pt ../nn/xxx_muscle.ptIf you are simulating with the torque-actuated model,
source /path/to/virtualenv/
./render/render ../data/metadata.txt ../nn/xxx.ptThere is a sample model in data/maya folder that I generally use. Currently if you are trying to edit the model, you have to make your own export maya-python code and xml writer so that the simulation code correctly read the musculoskeletal structure. There is also a rig model that is useful to retarget a new motion.
