Emergent Communication at Scale

  • If running experiments, familiarize yourself with helper.py at the very least as this defines the hyperparameters for each config as provides useful options like skipping training and doing eval only.
  • For changing hyperparameters, please see emergent_communication_at_scale/configs/lewis_config.py for the list of hyperparameters (and their defaults).
  • We are not able to replicate the 50x50 experiment even with an A100 80 GiB possibly because the original experiment were run on a TPU.
  • If using conda/mamba, create the environment with --channel-priority flexible. This is needed due to conda-forge not having all of the necessary packages and the nvidia channel not specifying dependencies correctly.
