NAND Perceptron

12 thg 11, 2019

Experimental NAND Perceptron based upon Python template that aims to predict NAND Gate Outputs. A Perceptron is one of the foundational building blocks of nearly all advanced Neural Network layers and models for Algo trading and Machine Learning.

The goal behind this script was threefold:

• To prove and demonstrate that an ACTUAL working neural net can be implemented in Pine, even if incomplete.
  
• To pave the way for other traders and coders to iterate on this script and push the boundaries of Tradingview strategies and indicators.
  
• To see if a self-contained neural network component for parameter optimization within Pinescript was hypothetically possible.
  
  

NOTE: This is a highly experimental proof of concept - this is NOT a ready-made template to include or integrate into existing strategies and indicators, yet (emphasis YET - neural networks have a lot of potential utility and potential when utilized and implemented properly).


Hardcoded NAND Gate outputs with Bias column (X0):
// NAND Gate + X0 Bias and Y-true
// X0 // X1 // X2 // Y
// 1 // 0 // 0 // 1
// 1 // 0 // 1 // 1
// 1 // 1 // 0 // 1
// 1 // 1 // 1 // 0

• Column X0 is bias feature/input
  
• Column X1 and X2 are the NAND Gate
  
• Column Y is the y-true values for the NAND gate
  
• yhat is the prediction at that timestep
  
• F0,F1,F2,F3 are the Dot products of the Weights (W0,W1,W2) and the input features (X0,X1,X2)
  
• Learning rate and activation function threshold are enabled by default as input parameters
  
  Uncomment sections for more training iterations/epochs:
• Loop optimizations would be amazing to have for a selectable length for training iterations/epochs but I'm not sure if it's possible in Pine with how this script is structured.
  
  
  
• Error metrics and loss have not been implemented due to difficulty with script length and iterations vs epochs - I haven't been able to configure the input parameters to successfully predict the right values for all four y-true values for the NAND gate (only been able to get 3/4; If you're able to get all four predictions to be correct, let me know, please).

// B3 := 1, y1 true
// C3 := 1, y2 true
// D3 := 0, y3 true
