Detailed Description

Adapter class for robot controller.

The controller gets a number of input sensor values each timestep and has to generate a number of output motor values.

These sensor and motor values are discretesized with this adapter.

Use this adapter between an agent and a controller to get discrete sensor and motor values.

The sensor values are hand over to the controller from the agent, in the other direction the motor values of the controller are hand over to the agent.

If no intervalCount is set, the count=1. If no intervalRange is set, the range is automatically adjusted.

For more details about controllers, see AbstractController and all implementing classes.

virtual

init function

Reimplemented from AbstractControllerAdapter.

void setIntervalCount ( int intervalCount )

virtual

Sets the number of intervals, in which sensor AND motor values are mapped.

Parameters

intervalCount the number of intervals

void setIntervalRange	(	double	minRange,
		double	maxRange,
		bool	mapToInterval = `true`
	)

virtual

Sets the interval range for the motors AND sensors, the minimum and maximum.

The third parameter decides if the originally range should be completely mapped to the given interval range. If not, the values outside the given interval range are set to minRange respectively maxRange.

Note: The adjustment of the range is disabled, if this method is called.

Parameters

minRange	the minimum of the interval
maxRange	the maximum of the interval
mapToInterval	decides if all values are mapped to the given interval

void setMotorIntervalCount ( int motorIntervalCount )

virtual

Sets the number of intervals, in which motor values are mapped.

Parameters

motorIntervalCount the number of intervals

void setMotorIntervalRange	(	double	minMotorRange,
		double	maxMotorRange,
		bool	mapToMotorInterval = `true`
	)

virtual

Sets the interval range for the motors, the minimum and maximum.

The third parameter decides if the originally range should be completely mapped to the given interval range. If not, the values outside the given interval range are set to minMotorRange respectively maxMotorRange.

Note: The adjustment of the range is disabled, if this method is called.

Parameters

minMotorRange	the minimum of the interval
maxMotorRange	the maximum of the interval
mapToMotorInterval	decides if all values are mapped to the given interval

void setSensorIntervalCount ( int sensorIntervalCount )

virtual

Sets the number of intervals, in which sensor values are mapped.

Parameters

sensorIntervalCount the number of intervals

void setSensorIntervalRange	(	double	minSensorRange,
		double	maxSensorRange,
		bool	mapToSensorInterval = `true`
	)

virtual

Sets the interval range for the sensors, the minimum and maximum.

The third parameter decides if the originally range should be completely mapped to the given interval range. If not, the values outside the given interval range are set to minSensorRange respectively maxSensorRange.

Note: The adjustment of the range is disabled, if this method is called.

Parameters

minSensorRange	the minimum of the interval
maxSensorRange	the maximum of the interval
mapToSensorInterval	decides if all values are mapped to the given interval

void step	(	const sensor *	sensors,
		int	sensornumber,
		motor *	motors,
		int	motornumber
	)

virtual

performs one step (includes learning).

Calculates motor commands from sensor inputs.

Parameters

sensors	sensors inputs scaled to [-1,1]
sensornumber	length of the sensor array
motors	motors outputs. MUST have enough space for motor values!
motornumber	length of the provided motor array

Reimplemented from AbstractControllerAdapter.

Reimplemented in Discretesizable.

void stepNoLearning	(	const sensor *	sensors,
		int	number_sensors,
		motor *	motors,

	)

virtual

performs one step without learning.
