Detailed Description

This class wraps the ScalarEncoder class.

A Log encoder represents a floating point value on a logarithmic scale.

valueToEncode = log10(input)

w – number of bits to set in output minval – minimum input value. must be greater than 0. Lower values are reset to this value maxval – maximum input value (input is strictly less if periodic == True) periodic – If true, then the input value "wraps around" such that minval = maxval For a periodic value, the input must be strictly less than maxval, otherwise maxval is a true upper bound.

Exactly one of n, radius, resolution must be set. "0" is a special value that means "not set".

n – number of bits in the representation (must be > w) radius – inputs separated by more than this distance in log space will have non-overlapping representations resolution – The minimum change in scaled value needed to produce a change in encoding. This should be specified in log space. For example, the scaled values 10 and 11 will be distinguishable in the output. In terms of the original input values, this means 10^1 (1) and 10^1.1 (1.25) will be distinguishable. name – an optional string which will become part of the description verbosity – level of debugging output you want the encoder to provide. clipInput – if true, non-periodic inputs smaller than minval or greater than maxval will be clipped to minval/maxval forced – (default False), if True, skip some safety checks
