public class SensoryCoupling
extends Coupling

Sensory Coupling represents an coupling between an agent's sensory apparatus and an input node of a neural network.

Constructor Summary

SensoryCoupling()
Create a new sensory coupling.

SensoryCoupling(Agent a, Neuron n, String[] sa)
Create a new sensory coupling with the specified agent, neuron, and array of sensor names.

SensoryCoupling(Agent a, String[] sa)
Create a new sensory coupling with the specified agent and array of sensor names.

SensoryCoupling(Neuron n, String[] sa)
Create a new sensory coupling with the specified neuron and array of sensor names.

Method Summary

String[]	getSensorArray() Return the array of sensor names for this sensory coupling.
String	getShortLabel() Return a short label for this sensory coupling, that is the elements in the array of sensor names separated by spaces.
void	setSensorArray(String[] sa) Set the array of sensor names for this sensory coupling to sa.
String	toString() Return debug information.
