The set of atari games used heavily in Deep Reinforcement Learning research. See more details in (Bellemare et al. 2013). The experimental design in (Mnih et al. 2015) has lead to several issues in the DRL community detailed in (Machado et al. 2018). The code for the arcade learning environment can be found at https://github.com/mgbellemare/Arcade-Learning-Environment.
