 # DataSelectEnv — OpenEnv Environment for Data Curation in ML Training
+
+## Description
+
+DataSelectEnv is an [OpenEnv](https://github.com/meta-pytorch/OpenEnv)-compliant reinforcement learning environment for the Meta PyTorch OpenEnv Hackathon. The environment models a core problem in real-world machine learning: given a large pool of candidate training examples — some clean, some mislabelled, all with a cost to acquire — which samples should an agent select to maximise model quality under a fixed labelling budget?
+
+We implement a real incremental training loop using SGDClassifier, where agents must select training data under budget constraints capturing realistic ML dynamics including diminishing returns, redundancy penalties, and noise sensitivity. The agent observes the current classifier's validation performance, an estimate of remaining pool noise, training-set diversity, and budget left, then decides how many samples to select and which sampling strategy to weight. Three difficulty tiers (easy / medium / hard) vary the noise level, budget, and time horizon to test whether agents can adapt their strategy to the environment's constraints.
+
+---
+
+## Observation Space
+
+| Field | Type | Range | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `remaining_budget` | int | [0, budget] | Samples remaining in the selection budget |
+| `diversity_score` | float | [0, ∞) | Std-dev of current training set features (proxy for diversity) |
+| `noise_estimate` | float | [0, 1] | Fraction of noisy samples still remaining in the pool |
+| `current_performance` | float | [0, 1] | Validation score: 1 / (1 + log_loss) |
+| `samples_available` | int | [0, ~1100] | Number of unlabelled samples left in the pool |
+
+---
+
+## Action Space
+
+| Field | Type | Values | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `action_type` | string | `select_batch`, `stop` | Select a batch of data or end the episode early |
+| `batch_size` | int | ≥ 0 | Number of samples to select this step |
+| `strategy_weights.uncertainty` | float | ≥ 0 | Weight for uncertainty sampling (highest-entropy samples) |
+| `strategy_weights.diversity` | float | ≥ 0 | Weight for diversity sampling (farthest from training centroid) |
+| `strategy_weights.random` | float | ≥ 0 | Weight for uniform random sampling |
+
+Strategy weights are normalised internally and do not need to sum to 1.
+
+---
+
+## Tasks
+
+| Name | flip_y | Budget | max_steps | Success criteria | Expected random score |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `easy` | 0.05 | 300 | 15 | performance > 0.55 | ~0.60 |
+| `medium` | 0.25 | 150 | 12 | performance > 0.52 AND avg noise ratio < 0.30 | ~0.40 |
+| `hard` | 0.30 | 100 | 8 | performance > 0.53 (+ budget efficiency) | ~0.30 |
+

+
+## Reward Function
+
+```
+gain        = (new_performance - old_performance) * 5.0

+            + 0.2 * (new_performance - old_performance)  # alignment bonus
+
+if redundancy > 0.8:  gain *= 0.5   # redundancy penalty
+if new_performance > 0.85: gain *= 0.7  # diminishing-returns cap
+
+noise_penalty = 0.4 * noise_ratio_of_selected_batch

+Your goal is to select high-quality training data from a noisy pool to improve

+must choose a data selection strategy.
+
+Observation fields:
+- remaining_budget: samples you can still select (integer)
+- diversity_score: std-dev of current training set features (higher = more diverse)
+- noise_estimate: fraction of noisy (mislabelled) samples remaining in pool
+- current_performance: validation score = 1/(1+log_loss), range [0,1]
+- samples_available: unlabelled samples remaining in the pool
+
+Respond with ONLY a valid JSON action in this exact format:

+  "strategy_weights": {
+    "uncertainty": <float 0–1>,
+    "diversity":   <float 0–1>,
+    "random":      <float 0–1>
+  }
+}
+
+Strategy rules:
+- Weights are normalized automatically (no need to sum to 1)
+- noise_estimate > 0.2  → lower uncertainty weight, raise diversity weight
+- noise_estimate > 0.4  → set uncertainty near 0, maximize diversity
+- diversity_score < 0.5 → increase diversity weight
+- remaining_budget < 30 → reduce batch_size to 5
+- You may use "action_type": "stop" with batch_size 0 only when
+  current_performance > 0.65 AND remaining_budget < 20
