Constructor Detail

VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput

public VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput(SemanticIdentifier[] identifiers,
                                      Vector values)

Creates a new instance of VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput

Parameters:

identifiers - Identifiers to use associate with the inputs

values - Activation values of the inputs, must have the same number of semantic identifiers as elements in the vector

VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput

public VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput(VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput other)

Copy Constructor

Parameters:

other - VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput to clone

Method Detail

clone

public VectorBasedCognitiveModelInput clone()

This makes public the clone method on the Object class and removes the exception that it throws. Its default behavior is to automatically create a clone of the exact type of object that the clone is called on and to copy all primitives but to keep all references, which means it is a shallow copy. Extensions of this class may want to override this method (but call super.clone() to implement a "smart copy". That is, to target the most common use case for creating a copy of the object. Because of the default behavior being a shallow copy, extending classes only need to handle fields that need to have a deeper copy (or those that need to be reset). Some of the methods in ObjectUtil may be helpful in implementing a custom clone method. Note: The contract of this method is that you must use super.clone() as the basis for your implementation.

Specified by:

clone in interface CloneableSerializable

Overrides:

clone in class AbstractCloneableSerializable

Returns:

A clone of this object.

getIdentifiers

protected SemanticIdentifier[] getIdentifiers()

Returns:

Identifiers to use associate with the inputs

setIdentifiers

protected void setIdentifiers(SemanticIdentifier[] identifiers)

Setter for identifiers

Parameters:

identifiers - Identifiers to use associate with the inputs

getValues

public Vector getValues()

Getter for values

Returns:

Activation values of the inputs

setValues

protected void setValues(Vector values)

Setter for values

Parameters:

values - Activation values of the inputs

getIdentifier

public SemanticIdentifier getIdentifier(int index)

Gets the SemanticIdentifier of the given index in the array.

Parameters:

index - The index of the SemanticIdentifier to get from the array.

Returns:

The SemanticIdentifier at the given index.

getNumInputs

public int getNumInputs()

Gets the number of inputs in the array.

Returns:

The number of inputs in the array.
