org.encog.ml.ea.codec.GenomeAsPhenomeCODEC

All Implemented Interfaces:

GeneticCODEC

public class GenomeAsPhenomeCODEC
extends java.lang.Object
implements GeneticCODEC

This is a simple pass-through CODEC. This CODEC is used when the genome and phenome are the same class, and no decoding is necessary.

Method Detail

decode

public MLMethod decode(Genome genome)

Decode the specified genome into a phenome. A phenome is an actual instance of a genome that you can query.

Specified by:

decode in interface GeneticCODEC

Parameters:

genome - The genome to decode.

Returns:

The phenome.

encode

public Genome encode(MLMethod phenotype)

Attempt to build a genome from a phenome. Note: not all CODEC's support this. If it is unsupported, an exception will be thrown.

Specified by:

encode in interface GeneticCODEC

Parameters:

phenotype - The phenotype.

Returns:

The genome.
