Combine PPO with NES to Improve Exploration

We introduce two approaches for combining neural evolution strategy (NES) and proximal policy optimization (PPO): parameter transfer and parameter space noise. Parameter transfer is a PPO agent with parameters transferred from a NES agent. Parameter space noise is to directly add noise to the PPO agent's parameters. We demonstrate that PPO could benefit from both methods through experimental comparison on discrete action environments as well as continuous control tasks.
