Brad Knox has released a new open-source version of TAMER, making it easy for anyone to experiment with the algorithm. Peter Stone notes that TAMER was the first general-purpose RLHF algorithm, introduced back in 2008. Ishan Durugkar says TAMER shaped many of his PhD explorations, and the new release lets a wider audience play with this pioneering work in human-in-the-loop reinforcement learning.
