Reflame (REvolutionizing Functional Link Artificial neural networks by MEtaheuristic algorithms) is a Python library that 
implements a framework for training Functional Link Neural Network (FLNN) networks using Metaheuristic Algorithms. It 
provides a comparable alternative to the traditional FLNN network and is compatible with the Scikit-Learn library. 
With Reflame, you can perform searches and hyperparameter tuning using the functionalities provided by the Scikit-Learn library.

### Examples

In this section, we will explore the usage of the Reflame model with the assistance of a dataset. While all the 
preprocessing steps mentioned below can be replicated using Scikit-Learn, we have implemented some utility functions 
to provide users with convenience and faster usage.  

#### Combine Reflame library like a normal library with scikit-learn.

```python
### Step 1: Importing the libraries
import pandas as pd
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from sklearn.preprocessing import MinMaxScaler, LabelEncoder
from reflame import FlnnRegressor, FlnnClassifier, MhaFlnnRegressor, MhaFlnnClassifier

#### Step 2: Reading the dataset
dataset = pd.read_csv('Position_Salaries.csv')
X = dataset.iloc[:, 1:2].values
y = dataset.iloc[:, 2].values

#### Step 3: Next, split dataset into train and test set
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=0.2, shuffle=True, random_state=100)

#### Step 4: Feature Scaling
scaler_X = MinMaxScaler()
scaler_X.fit(X_train)
X_train = scaler_X.transform(X_train)
X_test = scaler_X.transform(X_test)

le_y = LabelEncoder()  # This is for classification problem only
le_y.fit(y)
y_train = le_y.transform(y_train)
y_test = le_y.transform(y_test)

#### Step 5: Fitting FLNN-based model to the dataset

##### 5.1: Use standard FLNN model for regression problem
regressor = FlnnRegressor(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="elu",
                      obj_name="MSE", max_epochs=100, batch_size=32, optimizer="SGD", verbose=True)
regressor.fit(X_train, y_train)

##### 5.2: Use standard FLNN model for classification problem 
classifer = FlnnClassifier(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="sigmoid",
                      obj_name="BCEL", max_epochs=100, batch_size=32, optimizer="SGD", verbose=True)
classifer.fit(X_train, y_train)

##### 5.3: Use Metaheuristic-based FLNN model for regression problem
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_OPTIMIZERS)
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_REG_OBJECTIVES)
opt_paras = {"name": "GA", "epoch": 10, "pop_size": 30}
model = MhaFlnnRegressor(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=3, act_name="elu", 
                         obj_name="RMSE", optimizer="BaseGA", optimizer_paras=opt_paras, verbose=True)
regressor.fit(X_train, y_train)

##### 5.4: Use Metaheuristic-based FLNN model for classification problem
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_OPTIMIZERS)
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_CLS_OBJECTIVES)
opt_paras = {"name": "GA", "epoch": 10, "pop_size": 30}
classifier = MhaFlnnClassifier(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="sigmoid",
                          obj_name="NPV", optimizer="BaseGA", optimizer_paras=opt_paras, verbose=True)
classifier.fit(X_train, y_train)

#### Step 6: Predicting a new result
y_pred = regressor.predict(X_test)

y_pred_cls = classifier.predict(X_test)
y_pred_label = le_y.inverse_transform(y_pred_cls)

#### Step 7: Calculate metrics using score or scores functions.
print("Try my AS metric with score function")
print(regressor.score(X_test, y_test, method="AS"))

print("Try my multiple metrics with scores function")
print(classifier.scores(X_test, y_test, list_methods=["AS", "PS", "F1S", "CEL", "BSL"]))
```

#### Utilities everything that Reflame provided

```python
### Step 1: Importing the libraries
from reflame import Data, FlnnRegressor, FlnnClassifier, MhaFlnnRegressor, MhaFlnnClassifier
from sklearn.datasets import load_digits

#### Step 2: Reading the dataset
X, y = load_digits(return_X_y=True)
data = Data(X, y)

#### Step 3: Next, split dataset into train and test set
data.split_train_test(test_size=0.2, shuffle=True, random_state=100)

#### Step 4: Feature Scaling
data.X_train, scaler_X = data.scale(data.X_train, scaling_methods=("minmax"))
data.X_test = scaler_X.transform(data.X_test)

data.y_train, scaler_y = data.encode_label(data.y_train)  # This is for classification problem only
data.y_test = scaler_y.transform(data.y_test)

#### Step 5: Fitting FLNN-based model to the dataset

##### 5.1: Use standard FLNN model for regression problem
regressor = FlnnRegressor(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="tanh",
                      obj_name="MSE", max_epochs=100, batch_size=32, optimizer="SGD", verbose=True)
regressor.fit(data.X_train, data.y_train)

##### 5.2: Use standard FLNN model for classification problem 
classifer = FlnnClassifier(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="tanh",
                      obj_name="BCEL", max_epochs=100, batch_size=32, optimizer="SGD", verbose=True)
classifer.fit(data.X_train, data.y_train)

##### 5.3: Use Metaheuristic-based FLNN model for regression problem
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_OPTIMIZERS)
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_REG_OBJECTIVES)
opt_paras = {"name": "GA", "epoch": 10, "pop_size": 30}
model = MhaFlnnRegressor(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=3, act_name="elu", 
                         obj_name="RMSE", optimizer="BaseGA", optimizer_paras=opt_paras, verbose=True)
regressor.fit(data.X_train, data.y_train)

##### 5.4: Use Metaheuristic-based FLNN model for classification problem
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_OPTIMIZERS)
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_CLS_OBJECTIVES)
opt_paras = {"name": "GA", "epoch": 10, "pop_size": 30}
classifier = MhaFlnnClassifier(expand_name="chebyshev", n_funcs=4, act_name="sigmoid",
                          obj_name="NPV", optimizer="BaseGA", optimizer_paras=opt_paras, verbose=True)
classifier.fit(data.X_train, data.y_train)

#### Step 6: Predicting a new result
y_pred = regressor.predict(data.X_test)

y_pred_cls = classifier.predict(data.X_test)
y_pred_label = scaler_y.inverse_transform(y_pred_cls)

#### Step 7: Calculate metrics using score or scores functions.
print("Try my AS metric with score function")
print(regressor.score(data.X_test, data.y_test, method="AS"))

print("Try my multiple metrics with scores function")
print(classifier.scores(data.X_test, data.y_test, list_methods=["AS", "PS", "F1S", "CEL", "BSL"]))
```

A real-world dataset contains features that vary in magnitudes, units, and range. We would suggest performing 
normalization when the scale of a feature is irrelevant or misleading. Feature Scaling basically helps to normalize 
the data within a particular range.



1) Where do I find the supported metrics like above ["AS", "PS", "RS"]. What is that?
You can find it here: https://github.com/thieu1995/permetrics or use this

```python
from reflame import MhaFlnnClassifier, MhaFlnnRegressor

print(MhaFlnnRegressor.SUPPORTED_REG_OBJECTIVES)
print(MhaFlnnClassifier.SUPPORTED_CLS_OBJECTIVES)
```

2) I got this type of error
```python
raise ValueError("Existed at least one new label in y_pred.")
ValueError: Existed at least one new label in y_pred.
``` 
How to solve this?

+ This occurs only when you are working on a classification problem with a small dataset that has many classes. For 
  instance, the "Zoo" dataset contains only 101 samples, but it has 7 classes. If you split the dataset into a 
  training and testing set with a ratio of around 80% - 20%, there is a chance that one or more classes may appear 
  in the testing set but not in the training set. As a result, when you calculate the performance metrics, you may 
  encounter this error. You cannot predict or assign new data to a new label because you have no knowledge about the 
  new label. There are several solutions to this problem.

+ 1st: Use the SMOTE method to address imbalanced data and ensure that all classes have the same number of samples.

```python
import pandas as pd
from imblearn.over_sampling import SMOTE
from reflame import Data

dataset = pd.read_csv('examples/dataset.csv', index_col=0).values
X, y = dataset[:, 0:-1], dataset[:, -1]

X_new, y_new = SMOTE().fit_resample(X, y)
data = Data(X_new, y_new)
```

+ 2nd: Use different random_state numbers in split_train_test() function.

```python
import pandas as pd
from reflame import Data

dataset = pd.read_csv('examples/dataset.csv', index_col=0).values
X, y = dataset[:, 0:-1], dataset[:, -1]
data = Data(X, y)
data.split_train_test(test_size=0.2, random_state=10)  # Try different random_state value 
```
