pg.geno.Space¶

Accessible via pg.geno.Space, pg.geno.space.

class Space(elements=[], index=None, *, location=, hints=None)[source]¶

Bases: pg.DNASpec

Represents a search space that consists of a list of decision points.

Example:

# Create a constant space.
space = pg.geno.Space([])

# Create a space with one categorical decision point
# and a float decision point
space = pg.geno.space([
    pg.geno.oneof([
        pg.geno.constant(),
        pg.geno.constant(),
   ]),
   pg.geno.floatv(0.0, 1.0)
])

Attributes:

`decision_points`	Returns all decision points in their declaration order.
`is_categorical`	Returns True if current node is a categorical choice.
`is_constant`	Returns whether this template is constant.
`is_custom_decision_point`	Returns True if current node is a custom decision point.
`is_numerical`	Returns True if current node is numerical decision.
`is_space`	Returns True if current node is a sub-space.
`is_subchoice`	Returns True if current node is a subchoice of a multi-choice.
`space_size`	Returns the size of the search space.

Methods:

`format`([compact, verbose, root_indent])	Format this object.
`validate`(dna)	Validate whether a DNA value conforms to this spec.

property decision_points: List[DecisionPoint][source]¶: Returns all decision points in their declaration order.

format(compact=True, verbose=True, root_indent=0, **kwargs)[source]¶: Format this object.

property is_categorical: bool[source]¶: Returns True if current node is a categorical choice.

property is_constant: bool[source]¶

Returns whether this template is constant.

A constant Space does not have any genetic encoders.

property is_custom_decision_point: bool[source]¶: Returns True if current node is a custom decision point.

property is_numerical: bool[source]¶: Returns True if current node is numerical decision.

property is_space: bool[source]¶: Returns True if current node is a sub-space.

property is_subchoice: bool[source]¶: Returns True if current node is a subchoice of a multi-choice.

property space_size: int[source]¶: Returns the size of the search space. Use -1 for infinity.

validate(dna)[source]¶

Validate whether a DNA value conforms to this spec.

Return type:: None
