# threshold-priorityencoder4
4-to-2 priority encoder. Outputs binary encoding of highest-priority active input.
## Function
priority_encode(i3, i2, i1, i0) -> (y1, y0, valid)
- i3 = highest priority, i0 = lowest priority
- y1,y0 = 2-bit binary encoding of highest active input
- valid = 1 if any input is active
## Truth Table (selected)
| i3 | i2 | i1 | i0 | y1 | y0 | v | highest |
|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|---------|
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | none |
| 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | i0 |
| 0 | 0 | 1 | X | 0 | 1 | 1 | i1 |
| 0 | 1 | X | X | 1 | 0 | 1 | i2 |
| 1 | X | X | X | 1 | 1 | 1 | i3 |
## Architecture
Single layer with 3 neurons:
- y1 = i3 OR i2: weights [1,1,0,0], bias -1
- y0 = i3 OR (i1 AND NOT i2): weights [2,-1,1,0], bias -1
- v = i3 OR i2 OR i1 OR i0: weights [1,1,1,1], bias -1
## Parameters
| | |
|---|---|
| Inputs | 4 |
| Outputs | 3 |
| Neurons | 3 |
| Layers | 1 |
| Parameters | 15 |
| Magnitude | 13 |
## Usage
```python
from safetensors.torch import load_file
import torch
w = load_file('model.safetensors')
def priority_encode(i3, i2, i1, i0):
inp = torch.tensor([float(i3), float(i2), float(i1), float(i0)])
y1 = int((inp @ w['y1.weight'].T + w['y1.bias'] >= 0).item())
y0 = int((inp @ w['y0.weight'].T + w['y0.bias'] >= 0).item())
v = int((inp @ w['v.weight'].T + w['v.bias'] >= 0).item())
return y1, y0, v
print(priority_encode(0, 1, 1, 0)) # (1, 0, 1) -> i2 is highest
print(priority_encode(1, 1, 1, 1)) # (1, 1, 1) -> i3 is highest
```
