class OffPolicyAlgorithm(BaseAlgorithm):
    """
    The base for Off-Policy algorithms (ex: SAC/TD3)

    :param policy: Policy object
    :param env: The environment to learn from
                (if registered in Gym, can be str. Can be None for loading trained models)
    :param policy_base: The base policy used by this method
    :param learning_rate: learning rate for the optimizer,
        it can be a function of the current progress remaining (from 1 to 0)
    :param buffer_size: size of the replay buffer
    :param learning_starts: how many steps of the model to collect transitions for before learning starts
    :param batch_size: Minibatch size for each gradient update
    :param tau: the soft update coefficient ("Polyak update", between 0 and 1)
    :param gamma: the discount factor
    :param train_freq: Update the model every ``train_freq`` steps. Set to `-1` to disable.
    :param gradient_steps: How many gradient steps to do after each rollout
        (see ``train_freq`` and ``n_episodes_rollout``)
        Set to ``-1`` means to do as many gradient steps as steps done in the environment
        during the rollout.
    :param n_episodes_rollout: Update the model every ``n_episodes_rollout`` episodes.
        Note that this cannot be used at the same time as ``train_freq``. Set to `-1` to disable.
    :param action_noise: the action noise type (None by default), this can help
        for hard exploration problem. Cf common.noise for the different action noise type.
    :param optimize_memory_usage: Enable a memory efficient variant of the replay buffer
        at a cost of more complexity.
        See https://github.com/DLR-RM/stable-baselines3/issues/37#issuecomment-637501195
    :param policy_kwargs: Additional arguments to be passed to the policy on creation
    :param tensorboard_log: the log location for tensorboard (if None, no logging)
    :param verbose: The verbosity level: 0 none, 1 training information, 2 debug
    :param device: Device on which the code should run.
        By default, it will try to use a Cuda compatible device and fallback to cpu
        if it is not possible.
    :param support_multi_env: Whether the algorithm supports training
        with multiple environments (as in A2C)
    :param create_eval_env: Whether to create a second environment that will be
        used for evaluating the agent periodically. (Only available when passing string for the environment)
    :param monitor_wrapper: When creating an environment, whether to wrap it
        or not in a Monitor wrapper.
    :param seed: Seed for the pseudo random generators
    :param use_sde: Whether to use State Dependent Exploration (SDE)
        instead of action noise exploration (default: False)
    :param sde_sample_freq: Sample a new noise matrix every n steps when using gSDE
        Default: -1 (only sample at the beginning of the rollout)
    :param use_sde_at_warmup: Whether to use gSDE instead of uniform sampling
        during the warm up phase (before learning starts)
    :param sde_support: Whether the model support gSDE or not
    :param remove_time_limit_termination: Remove terminations (dones) that are due to time limit.
        See https://github.com/hill-a/stable-baselines/issues/863
    :param supported_action_spaces: The action spaces supported by the algorithm.
