Constructor Index

o ExcitatoryConnection(NetworkNode, NetworkNode)

Return an ExcitatoryConnection that connects node f to node t with weight 1.

o ExcitatoryConnection(NetworkNode, NetworkNode, int)

Return an ExcitatoryConnection that connects node f to node t with weight w.

Method Index

o getWeight()

Return the connection's weight.

o setWeight(int)

Set the connection's weight.

o updateToNode()

Check to see if the from node has fired.

Constructors

o ExcitatoryConnection 
 public ExcitatoryConnection(NetworkNode f,
                             NetworkNode t)

Return an ExcitatoryConnection that connects node f to node t with weight 1.

Parameters:
f - gerken.vehicles.VehicleNetworkNode
t - gerken.vehicles.VehicleNetworkNode
o ExcitatoryConnection 
 public ExcitatoryConnection(NetworkNode f,
                             NetworkNode t,
                             int w)

Return an ExcitatoryConnection that connects node f to node t with weight w.

Parameters:
f - gerken.vehicles.VehicleNetworkNode
t - gerken.vehicles.VehicleNetworkNode
w - int

Methods

o getWeight 
 public int getWeight()

Return the connection's weight. This value is added to the "to" node's input when the "from" node fires.

Parameters:
w - int
o setWeight 
 public void setWeight(int w)

Set the connection's weight. This value is added to the "to" node's input when the "from" node fires.

Parameters:
w - int
o updateToNode 
 public void updateToNode()

Check to see if the from node has fired. If it has, add the connection's weight to the input total for the to node.

Overrides:
