Proto Y Architecture
========================================
Overview
****************************************
The Proto Y Architecture is a framework for abstract prototype learning methods.
It divides the problem into multiple steps:
* **Components** : Recalling the position and metadata of the components/prototypes.
* **Backbone** : Apply a mapping function to data and prototypes.
* **Comparison** : Calculate a dissimilarity based on the latent positions.
* **Competition** : Calculate competition values based on the comparison and the metadata.
* **Loss** : Calculate the loss based on the competition values
* **Inference** : Predict the output based on the competition values.
Depending on the phase (Training or Testing) Loss or Inference is used.
Inheritance Structure
****************************************
The Proto Y Architecture has a single base class that defines all steps and hooks
of the architecture.
.. autoclass:: prototorch.y.architectures.base.BaseYArchitecture

Hyperparameters
****************************************
Every model implemented with the Proto Y Architecture has a set of hyperparameters,
which is stored in the ``HyperParameters`` attribute of the architecture.
