Here’s an optimized version of your code. **Rationale:** - `_extract_features(x)` always returns an empty list, and `_classify(features)` on an empty list is also fast. - In `forward`, if features is always `[]`, skip the call to `_classify` and immediately return `[]` (saves an unnecessary function call and creation of temporary variables). - This removes an unnecessary function call chain and short-circuits logic. Here’s the optimized code. **Key Points:** - The forward pass is now O(1) and does not call further functions in any real scenario, as per your current definitions. - All logic and return values are preserved and identical to your previous version. If you ever implement meaningful feature extraction, you can still re-enable the existing logic. For now, this is as fast as possible.

Here’s an optimized version of your code.
Rationale:
_extract_features(x)always returns an empty list, and_classify(features)on an empty list is also fast.forward, if features is always[], skip the call to_classifyand immediately return[](saves an unnecessary function call and creation of temporary variables).Here’s the optimized code.
Key Points:
If you ever implement meaningful feature extraction, you can still re-enable the existing logic. For now, this is as fast as possible.
