| # skycmd game trajectories (models vs oracle) |
|
|
| Complete episodes of the four skycmd games (Flappy Drone, Rescue Run, Obstacle Dodge, a Doom-like shooter) played by four small skycmd decision models and by the exact oracle: at every decision, the state, the model's probabilities, the oracle's soft target, the reward and the events. Generated by our Rust game cores and models: no third-party data. |
|
|
| Part of [skycmd](https://github.com/maxgfr/skycmd), tiny decision models trained from scratch in Rust that run in the |
| browser. Written by `scripts/gen-trajectories.sh (sky-arena <model> --trajectories, seed 2026)` at commit [`bd5a64a1`](https://github.com/maxgfr/skycmd/commit/bd5a64a1c3c2dffbe74e6a2bad7409da86fed58b). |
| Licences of every set: [DATA_LICENSES.md](https://github.com/maxgfr/skycmd/blob/main/DATA_LICENSES.md). |
|
|
| One config per policy, one row per decision, in play order: |
|
|
| | field | meaning | |
| |---|---| |
| | `model`, `game`, `episode`, `step` | who plays, which game, episode index, decision index in the episode | |
| | `tick` | simulator ticks before the decision (flappy decides every tick, doom every 4) | |
| | `state` | the compact text state the policy reads (the same as in the browser) | |
| | `question`, `options` | the action question and its options, rendered as text | |
| | `probs` | the policy's probability per option | |
| | `oracle` | the oracle's soft target per option, computed from the full simulator | |
| | `action`, `oracle_action` | the action played (argmax of `probs`) and the oracle's argmax | |
| | `abort_probs`, `abort`, `oracle_abort` | dodge only: the abort question, answered by both | |
| | `reward`, `events` | reward summed until the next decision, and what happened (`passed`, `crashed`, `rescued`, `kill`, `hurt`, ...) | |
| | `vetoed` | the coded safety reflex replaced the action | |
| | `last` | last decision of the episode | |
|
|
| The `episodes_*` configs give one row per episode: `decisions`, `return` (every tick's reward), |
| `truncated` (flappy stops alive at 50 pipes), `score`, `max_score`, `success`, `crashed`, |
| `aborted`, `safe_abort`, `vetoes`, `steps`. Flappy has no mission to complete: its episodes stop |
| alive at 50 pipes (`truncated`), so its completion is 0 and its score is the pipes passed. |
|
|
| **What it is for.** Every state a small model reaches by itself, with the expert's answer next to |
| its own: imitation learning and DAgger (`oracle` is the correction), offline reinforcement learning |
| (rewards and outcomes from five policies of very different quality, including complete failures: |
| s1-pico and s2-nano never learned doom), calibration (confidence against correctness along an |
| episode), and the study of compounding errors. |
|
