model_impl ========== description ----------- some_mod description The model description contains a detailed enumeration of the `members` of the model in sub-lists of `layers`, `connections`, `outputs` (observers) and `others`. There is also a binary flag `Stochastic?` indicating if the same input produces different output on different occasions. add --- some_mod add obj... The object(s) `obj` is added to model `some_mod` in an appropriate slot. In many cases, objects are added to the current default model on creation. remove ------ some_mod remove obj... The object(s) `obj` are removed from the model `some_mod`. list ---- some_mod list Emit the object list as in description step ---- some_mod step Attempt to advance one layer in step one time index. Using this directly outside of a trial is not advisable. analyze ------- some_mod analyze Emit an analysis of the relationships among layers in the model. This includes a list of `layers`, each with a `depth` and `breadth` in the connection tree when feedback connections are ignored. `feedforward connections` identified are listed. parameters ---------- some_mod parameters Return the dataframe object holding the parameters of the model. define_input ------------ some_mod define_input name in_rep in_layer Indicate that `some_mod` accepts an input that meets the conventions of `name` (e.g., "orthographic" which is used by the trials for lexical decision, etc.) by clamping the layer `in_layer` as the input layer. The conventionally formatted input should be treated as having representation `in_rep` for the purposes of converting input to the representation of `in_layer`. define_output ------------- some_mod define_output name out_obs Indicate that `some_mod` simulates the response behaviour indicated by the conventional name `name` (e.g. "lexical_decision" for lexical decisions made in a variety of different trial types), and the response may be detected by polling the observer `out_obs`. add_setting ----------- some_mod add_setting name value... Add a setting to the model `some_mod` that is named `name` and is valued (and has as default) `value`. The type will be string (non-string settings should have their type changed afterwards); the comment will be the same as the name (this can also be changed later). setting ------- some_mod setting name value... Change a setting of the model `some_mod` that is named `name` to be valued `value`. add_script ---------- some_mod add_script filename... Add the script `filename` to the list of scripts that form the model. stage ----- some_mod stage number Include yet-to-be-included-scripts up to script number `number` (0-indexed); all model settings are registered as `$name=value` macro variables during this process. some_mod stage Include all yet-to-be-included scripts, as above. list_settings ------------- some_mod list_settings Emit the settings in structured format. change_setting_type ------------------- some_mod change_setting_type setting type Change the type listed for `some_mod`'s setting `setting` to be `type`. change_setting_group -------------------- some_mod change_setting_group setting group Change the grouping listed for `some_mod`'s setting `setting` to be `group`. change_setting_comment ---------------------- some_mod change_setting_comment setting comment... Change the comment listed for `some_mod`'s setting `setting` to be `comment`.
