**OperantKit** is a tool kit for *operant conditioning* (*instrumental conditioning*) experiments written in Swift.

Usage

import OperantKit
import RxSwift

func main() {
	let schedule = FR(5) // Fixed ratio 5 schedule
	let events: Observable<Void> = ... // Observable events
	schedule.decision(events)
		.filter { $0.isReinforcement } // Filtering responses of reinforcement
		.subscribe(onNext: {
			print("Reinforcement")
		})
		.disposed(by: DisposeBag())
}

Examples

Supporting schedules

Simple schedules

Fixed schedules

|Name of schedule|Code| |:-:|:-:| |Fixed ratio schedule|FR(5)| |Variable ratio schedule|VR(5) ※| |Random ratio schedule|RR(5)|

※ The number of iterations of the variable schedule is "12" by default,

VR(10, iterations: 12)

It is also possible to change the number of iterations and so on.

Interval schedules

|Name of schedule|Code| |:-:|:-:| |Fixed interval schedule|FI(5)| |Variable interval schedule|VI(5)| |Random interval schedule|RI(5)|

The time interval defaults in .seconds,

FI(5, unit: .minutes)

It is also possible to change the unit in such a way.

Time schedules

|Name of schedule|Code| |:-:|:-:| |Fixed time schedule|FT(5)| |Variable time schedule|VT(5)| |Random time schedule|RT(5)|

The time interval defaults in .seconds,

FI(5, unit: .minutes)

It is also possible to change the unit in such a way.

Other schedules

|Name of schedule|Code| |:-:|:-:| |Continuous reinforcement|CRF()| |Extinction schedule|EXT()|

Compound schedules

※ When a common schedule applies to two or more types of operandam like the internal link in concurrent chained schedule, it can be handled by using Shared() keyword. e.g. Conc(Shared(VI(10)))
