Config:ModelBuilder

The adaptive model builder component defines which model type (e.g. polynomial model, ANN, SVMs, etc...) is used to model your data as well as the algorithm used to optimize its hyperparameters (e.g. the order of a polynomial function, the number of hidden nodes of an ANN, the kernel parameters of an SVM, etc...).

This page lists all pre-defined <AdaptiveModelBuilder> configuration sections included in the default.xml. These configuration sections should be declared after the <Plan>...</Plan> section in your config.xml if you are using a custom configuration XML file.

In the default.xml each configuration section is also given an id, which can be referred to in the <Plan> section. These id's are not included in the configuration sections listed here. For example in the default.xml file, the following adaptive model builder configuration section can be referred to using <AdaptiveModelBuilder>rational</AdaptiveModelBuilder> in the <Plan> section.

<[[Config:AdaptiveModelBuilder|AdaptiveModelBuilder]] id="rational" type="[[AdaptiveModelBuilder#SequentialModelBuilder|SequentialModelBuilder]]" combineOutputs="true">
    ...
</[[Config:AdaptiveModelBuilder|AdaptiveModelBuilder]]>

Each configuration section consists of two parts. The first part is the <ModelFactory> tag, which defines all the settings and parameters for a particular model type as well as their boundaries if those parameters need to be optimized.

The second part, the <AdaptiveModelBuilder> itself defines settings specific to the optimization algorithm. You can find out more about the available modeling algorithms and how to add your own here.

By combining these two elements you can create your own <AdaptiveModelBuiler>. If you want to add your own model type, please refer to this page. To learn more about the optimization algorithms used or to add your own search algorithm, consult this page.

Generated for SUMO toolbox version 7.0. We are well aware that documentation is not always complete and possibly even out of date in some cases. We try to document everything as best we can but much is limited by available time and manpower. We are are a university research group after all. The most up to date documentation can always be found (if not here) in the default.xml configuration file and, of course, in the source files. If something is unclear please don't hesitate to ask.
