Class AbstractStateRepresentation

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--lnsc.page.AbstractStateRepresentation

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, StateRepresentation

Direct Known Subclasses:

FlexibleSignalStateRepresentation, OfflineStateRepresentation, TwoSignalStateRepresentation

public abstract class AbstractStateRepresentation

extends java.lang.Object

implements StateRepresentation

Optional basis for class implementing StateRepresentation interface. Derived classes constructor must fill the protected variables and implement StateRepresentation.getRepresentation(lnsc.page.State).

State representations are assumed serializable! Episode state information should be transient (only information about how to generate the representation)!

Method Summary

int	getOutputCount() Indicates the number of values in the state representation.
boolean	isStateless() Indicates whether or not the function output depends solely of the current state (and not of the previous state is has processed).
void	reset() Reset internal transient state for non stateless functions.

Method Detail

getOutputCount

public int getOutputCount()

Description copied from interface: StateRepresentation

Indicates the number of values in the state representation.

Specified by:

getOutputCount in interface StateRepresentation

Returns:

Number of outputs.

isStateless

public boolean isStateless()

Description copied from interface: StateRepresentation

Indicates whether or not the function output depends solely of the current state (and not of the previous state is has processed). (Any such internal state use for next computation should be in transient variables and not being serialized. They should be reseted on reset.)

Specified by:

isStateless in interface StateRepresentation

Returns:

true if output depends solely on current input false otherwise.

reset

public void reset()

Description copied from interface: StateRepresentation

Reset internal transient state for non stateless functions.

Specified by:

reset in interface StateRepresentation
