main.py is the overall file to run
Alice is the sender, and Bob is the receiver.
The config.py file determines the game and the hyperparameters:
- Game: the range of numbers Alice needs to communicate; and how many bits Alice can send.
- Hyperparameters includes: how many iterations to run; loss function; choice of NNs; the training and playing strategies for Alice and Bob; when and on what schedule to shift from exploration of random guesses to exploitation of training-informed guesses; and whether to include noise.
I think 21-05-08_18:30:55BST_NLearn.log shows some of the best config and results I obtained. Have fiddled with the code quite a lot since then!
Note loss of (integer) 0 means that hasn't yet started to measure loss (doesn't measure random (exploration) losses). Table with negative numbers at the end of the log file shows how well Alice & Bob did: the closer to -1 the better,
Although there's a LaTeX directory, I'm not sure how helpful the contents are: more working notes than a write-up - sorry. Any questions please ask!
