The code outline

Okay, now let's switch to the code, which is in directory Chapter24 in the book's repository. In this section, I'm going to give a quick outline of my implementation and the key design decisions, but before that, I have to emphasize the important points about the code to set up the correct expectations:

  • I'm not a researcher, so the original goal of this code was just to reimplement the paper's method. Unfortunately, the paper has very few details about the exact hyperparameters used, so I had to guess and experiment a lot, and still, my results are very different from those published in the paper.
  • At the same time, I've tried to implement everything in a general way to simplify further experiments. For example, the exact details about the cube state and transformations are abstracted away, which allows us to implement more puzzles similar to the 3×3 cube just by adding a new module. In my code, two cubes are implemented...
