"""Manager for computing observation signals for a given world.
Observations are organized into groups based on their intended usage. This allows having different observation
groups for different types of learning such as asymmetric actor-critic and student-teacher training. Each
group contains observation terms which contain information about the observation function to call, the noise
corruption model to use, and the sensor to retrieve data from.
Each observation group should inherit from the :class:`ObservationGroupCfg` class. Within each group, each
observation term should instantiate the :class:`ObservationTermCfg` class. Based on the configuration, the
observations in a group can be concatenated into a single tensor or returned as a dictionary with keys
corresponding to the term's name.
If the observations in a group are concatenated, the shape of the concatenated tensor is computed based on the
shapes of the individual observation terms. This information is stored in the :attr:`group_obs_dim` dictionary
with keys as the group names and values as the shape of the observation tensor. When the terms in a group are not
concatenated, the attribute stores a list of shapes for each term in the group.
.. note::
When the observation terms in a group do not have the same shape, the observation terms cannot be
concatenated. In this case, please set the :attr:`ObservationGroupCfg.concatenate_terms` attribute in the
group configuration to False.
The observation manager can be used to compute observations for all the groups or for a specific group. The
observations are computed by calling the registered functions for each term in the group. The functions are
called in the order of the terms in the group. The functions are expected to return a tensor with shape
(num_envs, ...).
If a noise model or custom modifier is registered for a term, the function is called to corrupt
the observation. The corruption function is expected to return a tensor with the same shape as the observation.
The observations are clipped and scaled as per the configuration settings.

The observations for a given group are computed by calling the registered functions for each
term in the group. The functions are called in the order of the terms in the group. The functions
are expected to return a tensor with shape (num_envs, ...).
The following steps are performed for each observation term:
1. Compute observation term by calling the function
2. Apply custom modifiers in the order specified in :attr:`ObservationTermCfg.modifiers`
3. Apply corruption/noise model based on :attr:`ObservationTermCfg.noise`
4. Apply clipping based on :attr:`ObservationTermCfg.clip`
5. Apply scaling based on :attr:`ObservationTermCfg.scale`
We apply noise to the computed term first to maintain the integrity of how noise affects the data
as it truly exists in the real world. If the noise is applied after clipping or scaling, the noise
could be artificially constrained or amplified, which might misrepresent how noise naturally occurs
in the data.
Args:
group_name: The name of the group for which to compute the observations. Defaults to None,
in which case observations for all the groups are computed and returned.
Returns:
Depending on the group's configuration, the tensors for individual observation terms are
concatenated along the last dimension into a single tensor. Otherwise, they are returned as
a dictionary with keys corresponding to the term's name.
