Class RefinementCounterLearner<M,​I,​D>

    • Constructor Detail

      • RefinementCounterLearner

        public RefinementCounterLearner​(LearningAlgorithm<M,​I,​D> learningAlgorithm)
    • Method Detail

      • startLearning

        public void startLearning()
        Description copied from interface: LearningAlgorithm
        Starts the model inference process, creating an initial hypothesis in the provided model object. Please note that it should be illegal to invoke this method twice.
        Specified by:
        startLearning in interface LearningAlgorithm<M,​I,​D>
      • refineHypothesis

        public boolean refineHypothesis​(DefaultQuery<I,​D> ceQuery)
        Description copied from interface: LearningAlgorithm
        Triggers a refinement of the model by providing a counterexample. A counterexample is a query which exposes different behavior of the real SUL compared to the hypothesis. Please note that invoking this method before an initial invocation of LearningAlgorithm.startLearning() should be illegal.
        Specified by:
        refineHypothesis in interface LearningAlgorithm<M,​I,​D>
        Parameters:
        ceQuery - the query which exposes diverging behavior, as posed to the real SUL (i.e. with the SULs output).
        Returns:
        true if the counterexample triggered a refinement of the hypothesis, false otherwise (i.e., it was no counterexample).
      • getHypothesisModel

        public M getHypothesisModel()
        Description copied from interface: LearningAlgorithm
        Returns the current hypothesis model.

        N.B.: By the contract of this interface, the model returned by this method may not be modified (i.e., M generally should refer to an immutable interface), and its validity is retained only until the next invocation of LearningAlgorithm.refineHypothesis(DefaultQuery). If older hypotheses have to be maintained, a copy of the returned model must be made.

        Please note that it should be illegal to invoke this method before an initial invocation of LearningAlgorithm.startLearning().

        Specified by:
        getHypothesisModel in interface LearningAlgorithm<M,​I,​D>
        Returns:
        the current hypothesis model.
