The PlayStation Reinforcement Learning Environment (PSXLE)

We propose a new benchmark environment for evaluating Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms: the PlayStation Learning Environment (PSXLE), a PlayStation emulator modified to expose a simple control API that enables rich game-state representations. We argue that the PlayStation serves as a suitable progression for agent evaluation and propose a framework for such an evaluation. We build an action-driven abstraction for a PlayStation game with support for the OpenAI Gym interface and demonstrate its use by running OpenAI Baselines.
