                }
                - Where -
                prioritized_replay_alpha: Alpha parameter controls the degree of
                prioritization in the buffer. In other words, when a buffer sample has
                a higher temporal-difference error, with how much more probability
                should it drawn to use to update the parametrized Q-network. 0.0
                corresponds to uniform probability. Setting much above 1.0 may quickly
                result as the sampling distribution could become heavily “pointy” with
                low entropy.
                prioritized_replay_beta: Beta parameter controls the degree of
                importance sampling which suppresses the influence of gradient updates
                from samples that have higher probability of being sampled via alpha
                parameter and the temporal-difference error.
                prioritized_replay_eps: Epsilon parameter sets the baseline probability
                for sampling so that when the temporal-difference error of a sample is
                zero, there is still a chance of drawing the sample.
            store_buffer_in_checkpoints: Set this to True, if you want the contents of
                your buffer(s) to be stored in any saved checkpoints as well.
                Warnings will be created if:
                - This is True AND restoring from a checkpoint that contains no buffer
                data.
                - This is False AND restoring from a checkpoint that does contain
                buffer data.
            epsilon: Epsilon exploration schedule. In the format of [[timestep, value],
                [timestep, value], ...]. A schedule must start from
                timestep 0.
            adam_epsilon: Adam optimizer's epsilon hyper parameter.
            grad_clip: If not None, clip gradients during optimization at this value.
            num_steps_sampled_before_learning_starts: Number of timesteps to collect
                from rollout workers before we start sampling from replay buffers for
                learning. Whether we count this in agent steps or environment steps
                depends on config.multi_agent(count_steps_by=..).
            tau: Update the target by \tau * policy + (1-\tau) * target_policy.
            num_atoms: Number of atoms for representing the distribution of return.
                When this is greater than 1, distributional Q-learning is used.
            v_min: Minimum value estimation
            v_max: Maximum value estimation
            noisy: Whether to use noisy network to aid exploration. This adds parametric
                noise to the model weights.
            sigma0: Control the initial parameter noise for noisy nets.
            dueling: Whether to use dueling DQN.
            hiddens: Dense-layer setup for each the advantage branch and the value
                branch
            double_q: Whether to use double DQN.
            n_step: N-step target updates. If >1, sars' tuples in trajectories will be
                postprocessed to become sa[discounted sum of R][s t+n] tuples. An
                integer will be interpreted as a fixed n-step value. If a tuple of 2
                ints is provided here, the n-step value will be drawn for each sample(!)
                in the train batch from a uniform distribution over the closed interval
                defined by `[n_step[0], n_step[1]]`.
            before_learn_on_batch: Callback to run before learning on a multi-agent
                batch of experiences.
            training_intensity: The intensity with which to update the model (vs
                collecting samples from the env).
                If None, uses "natural" values of:
                `train_batch_size` / (`rollout_fragment_length` x `num_env_runners` x
                `num_envs_per_env_runner`).
                If not None, will make sure that the ratio between timesteps inserted
                into and sampled from the buffer matches the given values.
                Example:
                training_intensity=1000.0
                train_batch_size=250
                rollout_fragment_length=1
                num_env_runners=1 (or 0)
                num_envs_per_env_runner=1
                -> natural value = 250 / 1 = 250.0
                -> will make sure that replay+train op will be executed 4x asoften as
                rollout+insert op (4 * 250 = 1000).
                See: rllib/algorithms/dqn/dqn.py::calculate_rr_weights for further
                details.
            td_error_loss_fn: "huber" or "mse". loss function for calculating TD error
                when num_atoms is 1. Note that if num_atoms is > 1, this parameter
                is simply ignored, and softmax cross entropy loss will be used.
            categorical_distribution_temperature: Set the temperature parameter used
                by Categorical action distribution. A valid temperature is in the range
                of [0, 1]. Note that this mostly affects evaluation since TD error uses
                argmax for return calculation.
            burn_in_len: The burn-in period for a stateful RLModule. It allows the
                Learner to utilize the initial `burn_in_len` steps in a replay sequence
                solely for unrolling the network and establishing a typical starting
                state. The network is then updated on the remaining steps of the
                sequence. This process helps mitigate issues stemming from a poor
                initial state - zero or an outdated recorded state. Consider setting
                this parameter to a positive integer if your stateful RLModule faces
                convergence challenges or exhibits signs of catastrophic forgetting.
