CARLA-GymDrive is a powerful framework designed to facilitate reinforcement learning experiments in autonomous driving using the Carla simulator. By providing a gymnasium-like environment, it offers an intuitive and efficient platform for training driving agents using reinforcement learning techniques. It includes features such as scenario configuration to ensure that the training/test suite is adequate without requiring any code. Additionally, it boasts other features such as custom sensor configuration and compatibility with training libraries like Stable-Baselines3. This tool aims to increase researchers’ productivity by abstracting them from the complex code of the simulator, allowing them to focus on their research.
