HistNetQ implementation, see the original paper:
Pérez-Mon, O., Moreo, A., Coz, JJ del, & González, P. (2025).
Quantification using permutation-invariant networks based on histograms.
Neural Computing and Applications, 37(5), 3505-3520.
Ported from the reference implementation at https://github.com/pglez84/histnetq (the `HistNet`/
`DLQuantification` classes in that repo), adapted to QuaPy's own protocol-based sample generation
(replacing that repo's custom, `quantificationlib`-backed bag generators) and restricted, for now, to
the "hard" differentiable histogram variant by:
Yusuf, I., Igwegbe, G., and Azeez, O. "Differentiable Histogram with Hard-Binning."
arXiv preprint arXiv:2012.06311 (2020).
The overall architecture is: feature_extraction -> Sigmoid -> histogram layer -> small MLP -> softmax,
trained by minimizing a quantification loss over samples ("bags") of known prevalence, rather than
over individually labeled instances (in the spirit of QuaNet, see method/_quanet.py).

Implementation of `HistNetQ <https://github.com/pglez84/histnetq>`_, a neural network for
quantification that learns a differentiable histogram-based representation of a sample, trained
end-to-end by minimizing a quantification loss over many samples ("bags") of known prevalence.
The method was proposed in `Pérez-Mon, O., Moreo, A., Coz, JJ del, & González, P. (2025).
Quantification using permutation-invariant networks based on histograms.
Neural Computing and Applications, 37(5), 3505-3520.
<https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00521-024-10721-1>`_
HistNetQ does not follow the classify-then-aggregate pattern of :class:`quapy.method.aggregative.
AggregativeQuantifier`. Such classical approach is termed asymmetric, in the sense that quantifiers
learn from labelled instances and perform inference over bags.
Like :class:`quapy.method.meta.QuaNet`, HistNetQ is trained and evaluated
end-to-end on whole samples rather than on individually labeled instances, following a symmetric problem setting
(learning from bags, predicting on bags).
Training data can be provided in two ways:
* via :meth:`fit`, from a plain labelled collection (`X`, `y`): training/validation bags are then
generated by resampling from it using a QuaPy sampling protocol (:class:`quapy.protocol.UPP` by
default).
* via :meth:`fit_from_samples`, from a :class:`quapy.protocol.AbstractProtocol` that already yields
the training bags (e.g., :class:`quapy.data._lequa.SamplesFromDir` for LeQua-style pre-built
samples), optionally enriched with synthetic bags mixed from the given ones.
:param feature_extraction_module: a `torch.nn.Module` exposing an `output_size` attribute, used to
embed each instance before computing the histogram (e.g., a small MLP for tabular data, a CNN
for images). If None (default), an identity module is used, i.e., the instances in `X` are
assumed to already be in their final numeric representation.
:param n_bins: number of bins used to build the histogram (default 8).
:param quantiles: if True, use the cumulative (quantile) version of the histogram (default False).
:param linear_sizes: tuple of ints with the sizes of the linear layers used after the histogram
(default empty, i.e., only the final classification layer is used).
:param dropout: dropout applied after each of the `linear_sizes` layers (default 0).
:param output_function: either 'softmax' or 'normalize' (L1); both yield a valid prevalence vector
(default 'softmax').
:param bag_size: number of instances per training/validation bag (default 500).
:param n_bags_train: number of bags generated per training epoch (default 500).
:param n_bags_val: number of bags generated per validation epoch (default 500).
:param train_epochs: maximum number of training epochs (default 200).
:param patience: number of epochs without improvement in validation loss before early-stopping
(default 20).
:param start_lr: initial learning rate (default 1e-3).
:param end_lr: once the learning rate decays below this value, training stops (default 1e-6).
:param lr_factor: factor by which the learning rate is reduced after `patience` epochs without
improvement (default 0.1).
:param weight_decay: L2 regularization (default 0).
:param quant_loss: the quantification loss to minimize (default `torch.nn.L1Loss()`), called as
`quant_loss(true_prevalences, predicted_prevalences)`.
:param batch_size: number of bags per gradient update (default 16).
:param protocol: the :class:`quapy.protocol.AbstractStochasticSeededProtocol` subclass used by
:meth:`fit` to resample bags from the given labelled collection (default
:class:`quapy.protocol.UPP`, which draws bags with prevalence sampled uniformly at random from
the simplex).
:param protocol_params: dict of extra keyword arguments passed to `protocol` (besides `data`,
`sample_size`, `repeats`, and `random_state`, which are set internally); default None.
:param val_split: float in (0,1), the proportion of the collection given to :meth:`fit` that is held
out (via stratified sampling) for validation and early stopping (default 0.4).
:param device: `'cpu'` or `'cuda'` (default 'cpu').
:param random_state: seed used for the train/validation split and for the (fixed) validation
sampling sequence (default 0).
:param checkpointdir: directory where the best model found during training is stored (default
'../checkpoint').
:param checkpointname: name of the checkpoint file; if None (default), a random name is generated.
:param verbose: verbosity level; if >0, shows a progress bar with the current losses (default 0).
