# ContraWR

Contrast with the World Representation ContraWR from Yang et al (2021) [Yang2021].

> **Architecture-only repository.** Documents the
> `braindecode.models.ContraWR` class. **No pretrained weights are
> distributed here.** Instantiate the model and train it on your own
> data.

## Quick start

```bash
pip install braindecode
```

```python
from braindecode.models import ContraWR

model = ContraWR(
    n_chans=22,
    sfreq=250,
    input_window_seconds=4.0,
    n_outputs=4,
)
```

The signal-shape arguments above are illustrative defaults — adjust to
match your recording.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `steps` | int, optional | Number of steps to take the frequency decomposition `hop_length` parameters by default 20. |
| `emb_size` | int, optional | Embedding size for the final layer, by default 256. |
| `res_channels` | list[int], optional | Number of channels for each residual block, by default [32, 64, 128]. |
| `activation: nn.Module, default=nn.ELU` | — | Activation function class to apply. Should be a PyTorch activation module class like `nn.ReLU` or `nn.ELU`. Default is `nn.ELU`. |
| `drop_prob` | float, default=0.5 | The dropout rate for regularization. Values should be between 0 and 1. |
| `.. versionadded:: 0.9` | — | — |
