Interface NetStorageFormat

All Known Implementing Classes:

StandardNetStorageFormat, XMLNetStorageFormat

public interface NetStorageFormat

Interface to define a storage format. A StorageFormat is a strategy that knows how to store and restore a NeuralNet according to a specific encoding. Typically it can be recognized by a file extension. To identify a valid file format for a NeuralNet an appropriate FileFilter for a javax.swing.JFileChooser component can be requested.

NeuralNet, StorageFormatManager

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter	getFileFilter() Return a FileFilter that can be used to identify files which can be stored and restored with this Storage Format.
NeuralNet	restore(java.lang.String fileName) Restore a NeuralNet from a file with a given name.
java.lang.String	store(java.lang.String fileName, NeuralNet saveNet) Store a NeuralNet under a given name.

Method Detail

getFileFilter

javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter getFileFilter()

Return a FileFilter that can be used to identify files which can be stored and restored with this Storage Format. Typically, each storage format has its own recognizable file extension.

Returns:

FileFilter to be used with a javax.swing.JFileChooser

store

java.lang.String store(java.lang.String fileName,
                       NeuralNet saveNet)
                throws java.io.IOException

Store a NeuralNet under a given name.

Parameters:

fileName - file name of the NeuralNet under which it should be stored

saveNeuralNet - NeuralNet to be saved

Returns:

file name with correct file extension

Throws:

java.io.IOException

restore

NeuralNet restore(java.lang.String fileName)
           throws java.io.IOException

Restore a NeuralNet from a file with a given name.

Parameters:

name - of the file in which the NeuralNet has been saved

Returns:

restored NeuralNet

Throws:

java.io.IOException
