Polylearner

The Polylearner algorithm is a learning algorithm that, given a set of polyhedra P1, .., Pn, learns a minimal parametrized polyhedron P with parametrizations θ1, .., θn such that P[θ1] yields the same solution set of θ1. In simple terms, P generalizes P1, .., Pn by learning a higher-level polyhedron and its groundings to the lower-level polyhedra.

We represent polyhedra as linear systems of the form Ax <= b, where A is a coefficient matrix, and b is vector of coefficients. Take the following parametrized system

defined by a system P:

x + y <= c
    y <= b
    x <= a

by setting a, b, c to 1 we obtain the triangle on the left, while by setting a, b to 1 and c to 2, we obtain the square on the left; that is, P generalized both the triangle and rectangle.

Quickstart

Installation

mkvirtualenv -p python3.11 polylearner
pip install -r requirements.txt

Python interface

Polyhedra are defined as systems (System objects) representing systems of linear inequalities. The Polylearner class provides a fit(Iterable[System]) -> Optional[SymbolicParametricSystem] learning method to learn the generalizing parametric polyhedron.

Note that not all collections of low-level polyhedra admit a solution, hence fit may also return None.

from hyperplanes.planes import Hyperplane
from hyperplanes.systems import System
from learner.polylearner import Polylearner

# [-X =< 0, X =< 3, -Y =< 0, Y =< 2]
h1 = Hyperplane([-1., 0.], 0.)
h2 = Hyperplane([1., 0.], 3.)
h3 = Hyperplane([0., -1.], 0.)
h4 = Hyperplane([0., 1.], 2.)
s1 = System([h1, h2, h3, h4])

# [-X =< 0, X =< 2, -Y =< 0, Y =< 3]
h5 = Hyperplane([-1., 0.], 0.)
h6 = Hyperplane([1., 0.], 2.)
h7 = Hyperplane([0., -1.], 0.)
h8 = Hyperplane([0., 1.], 3.)
s2 = System([h5, h6, h7, h8])

learner = Polylearner()
learned_system = learner.fit([s1, s2])

The learned_system is an instance of SymbolicParametrizedSystem, a system of SymbolicInequality, which can be grounded into a SymbolicGroundedSystem:

grounding_0 = learned_system.solutions[0]
grounded_system = learned_system.ground(grounding_0)

Examples

Examples on Polylearner usage can be found in the notebooks/ folder.
