bind

torchhd.bind(input: VSATensor, other: VSATensor) → VSATensor

Binds two hypervectors which produces a hypervector dissimilar to both.

Binding is used to associate information, for instance, to assign values to variables.

\[\otimes: \mathcal{H} \times \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}\]

Parameters:

• input (VSATensor) – input hypervector

• other (VSATensor) – other input hypervector

Shapes:

• Input: \((*)\)

• Other: \((*)\)

• Output: \((*)\)

Examples:

>>> a, b = torchhd.random(2, 10)
>>> a
tensor([ 1., -1., -1.,  1.,  1.,  1., -1., -1., -1., -1.])
>>> b
tensor([-1.,  1.,  1., -1., -1.,  1.,  1.,  1., -1., -1.])
>>> torchhd.bind(a, b)
tensor([-1., -1., -1., -1., -1.,  1., -1., -1.,  1.,  1.])
