CIRCUIT COMPONENTS

noise

image

A circuit component that generates pseudo-random sparse sets.

Details and properties

  • The noise component has no input and returns one output block.
  • The dimension and population of the generated representations is governed by the outbound slot’s hyperparameters.


Property Default Description
send required a single output slot

Use standard style options to customize the component’s appearance in circuit schematics.

Additive noise

Add random noise to the input signal:

{ "hyperparameters": {"default": [1000, 10]},
  "dataflow": [
    {"component": "input", "send": [1]},
    {"component": "noise", "send": [2]},
    {"component": "output", "receive": [[1, 2]]}
  ]}

Subtractive noise

Use an inhibitory pathway to make the noise subtractive:

{ "hyperparameters": {"default": [1000, 10]},
  "dataflow": [
    {"component": "input", "send": [1]},
    {"component": "noise", "send": [2]},
    {"component": "output", "receive": [[1, {"slot": 2, "tags": ["inhibit"]}]]}
  ]}
