autoenc_base_ed: Autoencoder base (encoder + decoder)
Description
Base class for autoencoders that both encode and decode. Intended to be subclassed
by concrete implementations that learn to compress and reconstruct inputs.
Usage
autoenc_base_ed(input_size, encoding_size)
Value
returns an autoenc_base_ed object
Arguments
input_size
dimensionality of the input vector
encoding_size
dimensionality of the latent (encoded) vector
Details
This base does not train or transform by itself (identity). Implementations should
override fit() to learn parameters and transform() to perform encode+decode.
