Detailed Description

Interface for inspectable objects.

That means that one can read out some internal parameters indentified by string keys

TODO: support for lead through of params (e.g. getInternalParams()) for all children inspectables. For this use a instance-wide switch (useChildren) as a member variable to enable this feature when desired.

TYPEDEFS END.

~Inspectable (  )  [virtual]

Member Function Documentation

void addInfoLine ( std::string  infoLine  )  [virtual]

Adds an info line to this inspectable instance.

All infolines are plotted by the PlotOptionEngine and therefore appear e.g. in the logfile. They are leaded by a I. If you have your own identifiers, just begin with your one (e.g. N for number of NOTE: You must not add e.g. carriage return, all this is handled by the PlotOptionsEngine itself. If you like to add multiple lines, call this function a lot more or use instead addInfoLines.

Parameters:
infoLine the line (as string) to be added
void addInfoLines ( std::list< std::string >  infoLineList  )  [virtual]

Adds a bunch of infolines with addInfoLine to this inspectable instance.

Every infoline is separated by an carriage return automatically, done by the PlotOptionsEngine.

Parameters:
infoLineList the infoLines to be added as a string list.
void addInspectable ( Inspectable insp  )  [virtual]

Adds an inspectable as a child object.

Parameters:
insp the instance to add
void addInspectableDescription ( const iparamkey key,
const std::string &  descr 
) [virtual]

adds a description for the given parameter using info-lines The line will start (appart from the I) with a D for description followed by the key end then followed by the string.

Parameters:
key parameter name (no spaces allowed)
descr descriptive string (no newlines allowed)
void addInspectableMatrix ( const iparamkey key,
const matrix::Matrix m,
bool  only4x4AndDiag = true,
const std::string &  descr = std::string() 
) [virtual]

This is the new style for adding inspectable values.

Just call this function for each parameter and you are done. Inspects elements of the given matrix or vector (automatic detection) For Matrixes Either all or only the values given by store4x4AndDiagonalFieldNames(Matrix& m,string& matrixName); are used.

Parameters:
key the name of the matrix, shown e.g. in guilogger (no spaces allowed)
m the address of the matrix to inspect
only4x4AndDiag of true only 4x4 matrix plus the diagonal is used
descr description string to be exported (for the entire matrix with key_) (using infolines)
Note:
that you can change the structure of the matrix while being inspected, but no after the getInternalParameterNames is called!
void addInspectableValue ( const iparamkey key,
iparamval const *  val,
const std::string &  descr = std::string() 
) [virtual]

This is the new style for adding inspectable values.

Just call this function for each parameter and you are done. registers a single value

Parameters:
key the name of the inspectable, shown e.g. in guilogger (no spaces allowed)
val the address of the value to inspect
descr description string to be exported (using infolines)
const std::list< std::string > & getInfoLines (  )  const [virtual]

Returns all infolines added to this inspectable instance.

This function is called by the PlotOptionEngine.

Returns:
all added infolines.
const Inspectable::inspectableList & getInspectables (  )  const [virtual]

Returns the list containing all inspectable children.

Inspectable::iparamkeylist getInternalParamNames (  )  const [virtual]

The list of the names of all internal parameters given by getInternalParams().

The naming convention is "v[i]" for vectors and "A[i][j]" for matrices, where i, j start at 0.

Returns:
: list of keys

Reimplemented in ClassicReinforce, Elman, FFNNController, InvertMotorBigModel, ModelWithMemoryAdapter, MultiLayerFFNN, ReplayController, use_java_controller, and FeedbackWiring.

Inspectable::iparamvallist getInternalParams (  )  const [virtual]
Inspectable::iparamvalptrlist getInternalParamsPtr (  )  const [virtual]

be careful: matrices will be ignored

Returns:
list of values (pointer)
const Inspectable::iparamkey getNameOfInspectable (  )  const [virtual]

return the name of the inspectable, getName() would conflict with Configurable::getName() too often

Inspectable::iconnectionlist getStructuralConnections (  )  const [virtual]

Specifies which parameter matrix forms a connection between layers (in terms of a neural network) The orderning is not important.

Returns:
: list of layer names with dimension

Reimplemented in ClassicReinforce, Elman, InvertMotorBigModel, InvertMotorNStep, InvertMotorSpace, InvertNChannelController, ModelWithMemoryAdapter, MultiLayerFFNN, and SeMoX.

Inspectable::ilayerlist getStructuralLayers (  )  const [virtual]

Specifies which parameter vector forms a structural layer (in terms of a neural network) The ordering is important.

The first entry is the input layer and so on.

Returns:
: list of layer names with dimension

Reimplemented in ClassicReinforce, Elman, InvertMotorBigModel, InvertMotorNStep, InvertMotorSpace, InvertNChannelController, ModelWithMemoryAdapter, MultiLayerFFNN, and SeMoX.

void removeInfoLines (  )  [virtual]

Removes all infolines from this inspectable instance.

This is useful if you have new infoLines and would like to restart the PlotOptionEngine.

void removeInspectable ( Inspectable insp  )  [virtual]

Removes an inspectable as a child object.

Parameters:
insp the instance to remove
void setNameOfInspectable ( const iparamkey name  )  [virtual]

set the name of the inspectable
