LengthDelay

class brainpy.math.LengthDelay(delay_target, delay_len, initial_delay_data=None, name=None, batch_axis=None, update_method='rotation')

Delay variable which has a fixed delay length.

Parameters:

• delay_target (int, sequence of int) – The initial delay data.

• delay_len (int) – The maximum delay length.

• initial_delay_data (Any) –

  The delay data. It can be a Python number, like float, int, boolean values. It can also be arrays. Or a callable function or instance of Connector. Note that initial_delay_data should be arranged as the following way:

  delay = 1             [ data
  delay = 2               data
  ...                     ....
  ...                     ....
  delay = delay_len-1     data
  delay = delay_len       data ]
  

  Changed in version 2.2.3.2: The data in the previous version of LengthDelay is:

  delay = delay_len     [ data
  delay = delay_len-1     data
  ...                     ....
  ...                     ....
  delay = 2               data
  delay = 1               data ]
  

name: str

The delay object name.

batch_axis: int

The batch axis. If not provided, it will be inferred from the delay_target.

update_method: str

The method used for updating delay.
