muzero-general VS tone

I went looking for MuZero implementations in order to see how, exactly, they interact with the game space. Based on this one, which had the most stars in the muzero topic, it appears that it needs to be able to discern legal next steps from the current game state https://github.com/werner-duvaud/muzero-general/blob/master/...

So, I guess for the cards Forge has implemented one could MuZero it, but I believe it's a bit chicken and egg with a "free text" game like M:TG -- in order to train one would need to know legal steps for any random game state, but in order to have legal steps one would need to be able to read and interpret English rules and card text

You may want to use the trick described in https://arxiv.org/pdf/1805.11593.pdf as a Transformed Bellman Operator. Its efficiency is proved in MuZero original paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/1911.08265.pdf Appendix F. The implementation of that method you can find here: https://github.com/werner-duvaud/muzero-general Usage: muzero/models.py:649 (def support_to_scalar)

I have used this implementation from MuZero: https://github.com/werner-duvaud/muzero-general

+1 to taking a look at OpenSpiel. It has AlphaZero in C++ and Python, and there is even a PR open that allows running UCI (e.g. Stockfish) bot. You can also load chess via the OpenSpiel wrapper in muzero-general: https://github.com/werner-duvaud/muzero-general

When I looked up some community implementations, like that of Werner Duvaud on GitHub and Discord, hoping to make my own contributions to this effect, I soon found that I was hopelessly out of my depth as an amateur programmer, even with the help of some other sources like this walkthrough series. However, from what I could tell, most of the people working on this sort of thing seemed to be tackling relatively simple games. At first I thought this might be largely due to limitations in hobby time or computing power available to these users, but then I also noticed that, unless I have misunderstood something, it seems like the games are required to be rebuilt entirely in the engine of (this implementation of) MuZero, which would also obviously be a limit on the complexity of games chosen.

Windows support (Experimental / Workaround: Use the notebook in Google Colab)

There are several if you google "muzero github", e.g. https://github.com/werner-duvaud/muzero-general

Have you tried using ABP's own metadata tool and then using that to embed the metadata? They use tone. Not sure if it will help you with the m4bs containing mp4 streams - I've never tried dealing with that.

- LG G5 H850 (optional with Bang & Olufsen Hifi-Plus module) + Audiobookshelf + Substreamer

Let me cite my comment from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32042780:

I use m4b-tool[1], tone[2] and audiobookshelf[3] together with an LG G5 H850 smartphone[8] with Bang & Olufsen Hifi-Plus Module for Audio Only and I am pretty happy with this config. For Music I use Navidrome[5] and Substreamer App[7]. Maybe I'll try out Jellyfin[4] or maybe Plex[6], but I really don't wanna go closed source.

I also thought about writing something self hosted in C# to have ONE solution for audiobooks, podcasts and music and started a small private project, but this will take a while until it is ready to release something...

You may ask: Why an LG G5 H850? Well, its relatively small and cheap (about 50 - 80 bucks used) it has an audio Jack, USB-C, you can change the battery, it can hold up to 2TB microSD storage, has an HiFi Plus module for audio enthusiasts and a descent screen. Besides that it can run lineage os...

Note: I'm the author of the first two projects :-)

> Very neat, I love it, I used to have a tool to do this but it's been ages and is now unmaintained.

Thank you :-) Glad to hear that.

Good point. I think that the "scriptable" part needs special care regarding security issues, as well as the metadata-readers and JSON parsers. I don't want that to bite me in the neck because of a "malicious" file. Maybe it is worth to provide a responsible disclosure email and make a plan for security issues.
