h2. <code>idyom:idyom</code>
The main workhorse function is <code>idyom:idyom</code>, <code>idyom:idyom</code> which has accepts the following arguments (the first three required arguments and a number of are required, the remainder are optional keyword arguments. arguments):
_Required parameters_
* dataset-id: a dataset id, e.g. 1. id

h2. Viewpoint Selection
Two functions are supplied for searching a space of viewpoints: <code>run-hill-climber</code> and <code>run-best-first</code>, which take 4 arguments:
* a list of viewpoints: the algorithm searches through the space of combinations of these viewpoints
* a start state (usually nil, the empty viewpoint system)
* an evaluation function returning a numeric performance metric: e.g., the mean information content of the dataset returned by <code>dataset-prediction</code>
* a symbol describing which way to optimise the metric: <code>:desc</code> mean lower values are better <code>:asc</code> mean greater values are better
Here is an example:

'(:cpitch :cpintfref :cpint :contour)

* an evaluation function returning a numeric performance metric: e.g., the mean information content of the dataset returned by <code>dataset-prediction</code>
* a symbol describing which way to optimise the metric: <code>:desc</code> mean lower values are better <code>:asc</code> mean greater values are better
Here is an example:
<pre>
CL-USER> (viewpoint-selection:run-hill-climber
'(:cpitch :cpintfref :cpint :contour)
nil
#'(lambda (viewpoints)
(utils:round-to-nearest-decimal-place
(resampling:output-information-content
(resampling:dataset-prediction 0 '(cpitch) viewpoints :k 10 :models :both+)
1)
2))
:desc)
=============================================================================
System Score
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NIL NIL
(CPITCH) 2.52
(CPINT CPITCH) 2.43
(CPINTFREF CPINT CPITCH) 2.38
=============================================================================
#S(VIEWPOINT-SELECTION::RECORD :STATE (:CPINTFREF :CPINT :CPITCH) :WEIGHT 2.38)
</pre>
Since this can be quite a time consuming process, there are also functions for caching the results.

(load-vs-cache filename package)
(store-vs-cache filename package)
