Flatten a space into a space that is as flat as possible.

This function will attempt to flatten space into a single gymnasium.spaces.Box space. However, this might not be possible when space is an instance of gymnasium.spaces.Graph, gymnasium.spaces.Sequence or a compound space that contains a gymnasium.spaces.Graph or gymnasium.spaces.Sequence space. This is equivalent to flatten(), but operates on the space itself. The result for non-graph spaces is always a gymnasium.spaces.Box with flat boundaries. While the result for graph spaces is always a gymnasium.spaces.Graph with Graph.node_space being a Box with flat boundaries and Graph.edge_space being a Box with flat boundaries or None. The box has exactly flatdim() dimensions. Flattening a sample of the original space has the same effect as taking a sample of the flattened space. However, sampling from the flattened space is not necessarily reversible. For example, sampling from a flattened Discrete space is the same as sampling from a Box, and the results may not be integers or one-hot encodings. This may result in errors or non-uniform sampling.

Parameters:: space – The space to flatten
Returns:: A flattened Box
Raises:: NotImplementedError – if the space is not defined in gymnasium.spaces.

Example

Flatten spaces.Box: >>> from gymnasium.spaces import Box >>> box = Box(0.0, 1.0, shape=(3, 4, 5)) >>> box Box(0.0, 1.0, (3, 4, 5), float32) >>> flatten_space(box) Box(0.0, 1.0, (60,), float32) >>> flatten(box, box.sample()) in flatten_space(box) True

Flatten spaces.Discrete: >>> from gymnasium.spaces import Discrete >>> discrete = Discrete(5) >>> flatten_space(discrete) Box(0, 1, (5,), int64) >>> flatten(discrete, discrete.sample()) in flatten_space(discrete) True

Flatten spaces.Dict: >>> from gymnasium.spaces import Dict, Discrete, Box >>> space = Dict({“position”: Discrete(2), “velocity”: Box(0, 1, shape=(2, 2))}) >>> flatten_space(space) Box(0.0, 1.0, (6,), float64) >>> flatten(space, space.sample()) in flatten_space(space) True

Flatten spaces.Graph: >>> from gymnasium.spaces import Graph, Discrete, Box >>> space = Graph(node_space=Box(low=-100, high=100, shape=(3, 4)), edge_space=Discrete(5)) >>> flatten_space(space) Graph(Box(-100.0, 100.0, (12,), float32), Box(0, 1, (5,), int64)) >>> flatten(space, space.sample()) in flatten_space(space) True

Flatten a data point from a space.

This is useful when e.g. points from spaces must be passed to a neural network, which only understands flat arrays of floats.

Parameters:

space – The space that x is flattened by
x – The value to flatten

Returns:

The flattened datapoint –

For gymnasium.spaces.Box and gymnasium.spaces.MultiBinary, this is a flattened array
For gymnasium.spaces.Discrete and gymnasium.spaces.MultiDiscrete, this is a flattened one-hot array of the sample
For gymnasium.spaces.Tuple and gymnasium.spaces.Dict, this is a concatenated array the subspaces (does not support graph subspaces)
For graph spaces, returns GraphInstance where:
- GraphInstance.nodes are n x k arrays
- GraphInstance.edges are either:
  
  m x k arrays
  
  None
- GraphInstance.edge_links are either:
  
  m x 2 arrays
  
  None

Raises:

NotImplementedError – If the space is not defined in gymnasium.spaces.

Example

>>> from gymnasium.spaces import Box, Discrete, Tuple
>>> space = Box(0, 1, shape=(3, 5))
>>> flatten(space, space.sample()).shape
(15,)
>>> space = Discrete(4)
>>> flatten(space, 2)
array([0, 0, 1, 0])
>>> space = Tuple((Box(0, 1, shape=(2,)), Box(0, 1, shape=(3,)), Discrete(3)))
>>> example = ((.5, .25), (1., 0., .2), 1)
>>> flatten(space, example)
array([0.5 , 0.25, 1.  , 0.  , 0.2 , 0.  , 1.  , 0.  ])

Return the number of dimensions a flattened equivalent of this space would have.

Parameters:

space – The space to return the number of dimensions of the flattened spaces

Returns:

The number of dimensions for the flattened spaces

Raises:

NotImplementedError – if the space is not defined in gym.spaces.
ValueError – if the space cannot be flattened into a gymnasium.spaces.Box

Example

>>> from gymnasium.spaces import Dict, Discrete
>>> space = Dict({"position": Discrete(2), "velocity": Discrete(3)})
>>> flatdim(space)

Unflatten a data point from a space.

This reverses the transformation applied by flatten(). You must ensure that the space argument is the same as for the flatten() call.

Parameters:

space – The space used to unflatten x
x – The array to unflatten

Returns:

A point with a structure that matches the space.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – if the space is not defined in gymnasium.spaces.
