A layer structure for any ICN

The layer.jl file defines a Layer structure and several associated functions for manipulating and interacting with this structure in the context of an Interpretable Compositional Network (ICN).

The Layer structure is used to store a LittleDict of operations that can be selected during the learning phase of an ICN. Each layer can be exclusive, meaning only one operation can be selected at a time. This is particularly useful in the context of ICNs, which are used to learn alternative expressions for highly combinatorial functions, such as those found in Constraint-based Local Search solvers.

# CompositionalNetworks.Layer — Type.

Layer

A structure to store a LittleDict of operations that can be selected during the learning phase of an ICN. If the layer is exclusive, only one operation can be selected at a time.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.functions — Function.

functions(layer)

Access the operations of a layer. The container is ordered.

source

# Base.length — Method.

length(layer)

Return the number of operations in a layer.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.exclu — Function.

exclu(layer)

Return true if the layer has mutually exclusive operations.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.symbol — Function.

symbol(layer, i)

Return the i-th symbols of the operations in a given layer.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.nbits_exclu — Function.

nbits_exclu(layer)

Convert the length of an exclusive layer into a number of bits.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.show_layer — Function.

show_layer(layer)

Return a string that contains the elements in a layer.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.selected_size — Function.

selected_size(layer, layer_weights)

Return the number of operations selected by layer_weights in layer.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.is_viable — Function.

is_viable(layer, w)
is_viable(icn)
is_viable(icn, w)

Assert if a pair of layer/icn and weights compose a viable pattern. If no weights are given with an icn, it will check the current internal value.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.generate_inclusive_operations — Function.

generate_inclusive_operations(predicate, bits)
generate_exclusive_operation(max_op_number)

Generates the operations (weights) of a layer with inclusive/exclusive operations.

source

# CompositionalNetworks.generate_exclusive_operation — Function.

generate_exclusive_operation(max_op_number)

Generates the operations (weights) of a layer with exclusive operations.
