Requirement

A OpponentModel must have a constructor that takes the Domain as argument. unfortunately this can not be enforced in a java interface

MUST have an empty constructor as these are also used as part of the BOA framework. ''' @abstractmethod def With(self, domain:Domain , resBid:Bid) -> "OpponentModel": ''' Initializes the model. This function must be called first after constructing an instance. It can also be called again later, if there is a change in the domain or resBid.

This late-initialization is to support boa models that have late initialization. @param domain the domain to work with. Must be not null. @param resBid the reservation bid, or null if no reservationbid is available. @return OpponentModel that uses given domain and reservationbid. ''' @abstractmethod def WithParameters(self, parameters:Parameters ) -> "OpponentModel" : ''' @param parameters Opponent-model specific {@link Parameters} @return an updated OpponentMode, with parameters used. Each implementation of OpponentModel is free to use parameters as it likes. For instance to set learning speed. ''' @abstractmethod def WithAction(self, action:Action , progress:Progress ) -> "OpponentModel" : ''' Update this with a new action that was done by the opponent that this model is modeling. {@link #with(Domain, Bid)} must be called before calling this. @param action the new incoming action. @param progress the current progress of the negotiation. Calls to this must be done with increasing progress. @return the updated {@link OpponentModel} '''
