    """Implementation of Synchronous Advantage Actor-Critic. arXiv:1602.01783.

    :param torch.nn.Module actor: the actor network following the rules in
        :class:`~tianshou.policy.BasePolicy`. (s -> logits)
    :param torch.nn.Module critic: the critic network. (s -> V(s))
    :param torch.optim.Optimizer optim: the optimizer for actor and critic network.
    :param dist_fn: distribution class for computing the action.
    :param float discount_factor: in [0, 1]. Default to 0.99.
    :param float vf_coef: weight for value loss. Default to 0.5.
    :param float ent_coef: weight for entropy loss. Default to 0.01.
    :param float max_grad_norm: clipping gradients in back propagation. Default to
        None.
    :param float gae_lambda: in [0, 1], param for Generalized Advantage Estimation.
        Default to 0.95.
    :param bool reward_normalization: normalize estimated values to have std close to
        1. Default to False.
    :param int max_batchsize: the maximum size of the batch when computing GAE,
        depends on the size of available memory and the memory cost of the
        model; should be as large as possible within the memory constraint.
        Default to 256.
    :param bool action_scaling: whether to map actions from range [-1, 1] to range
        [action_spaces.low, action_spaces.high]. Default to True.
    :param str action_bound_method: method to bound action to range [-1, 1], can be
        either "clip" (for simply clipping the action), "tanh" (for applying tanh
        squashing) for now, or empty string for no bounding. Default to "clip".
    :param Optional[gym.Space] action_space: env's action space, mandatory if you want
        to use option "action_scaling" or "action_bound_method". Default to None.
    :param lr_scheduler: a learning rate scheduler that adjusts the learning rate in
        optimizer in each policy.update(). Default to None (no lr_scheduler).
    :param bool deterministic_eval: whether to use deterministic action instead of
        stochastic action sampled by the policy. Default to False.
