Load a state estimation modulation from a YAML string.

Returns:

The loaded state estimation or None if loading fails.

Return type:

StateEstimation| None

Create an object of a sub-class selected by name.

Parameters:

type – The associated type name.

Returns:

An object of a registered sub-class or None in case the desired name is not found.

Setup the state estimation. Called before starting a simulation.

Parameters:
  • agent – The agent owning the state estimation

  • world – The world the agent is part of

Prepare a sensing state to have the correct buffers.

Parameters:

state – The state

Returns the json-schema that includes registered components.

Returns:

“anyOf” json-schema of all registered components.

Return type:

dict[str, typing.Any]

Returns the json-schema of a component

Returns an empty dictionary if a not registered type is requested.

Parameters:
