I am trying to do sequence classification by using policy gradient method. As I understood  “reinforce” method does that out-of-the-box.  What I need is to add combine binary cross entropy loss.
How should I do properly the gradient step? What I have now is something like this:
for action, r in zip(policy.saved_actions, rewards):
    action.reinforce(r)
optimizer.zero_grad()
autograd.backward(policy.saved_actions + [bce_loss], [None for _ in policy.saved_actions] + [None])

where bce_loss is the binary cross entropy for sequence classification and action is a stochastic variable. Do I do this correctly?  One strange moment is if I do not do action.reinforce, I receive no error during the backpropagation step. Shouldn’t any exception be raised as we did not assign the reward on the stochastic variable?
