Method Detail

evaluateWithDiscriminant

public ValueDiscriminantPair<CategoryType,java.lang.Double> evaluateWithDiscriminant(Vector unknownVector)

This method implements the evaluation aspect of BurrowsDelta. That is, given an unknownVector, this method should return a discriminant value paired with the corresponding most likely category. The discriminant value is the score.

Specified by:

evaluateWithDiscriminant in interface DiscriminantCategorizer<Vector,CategoryType,java.lang.Double>

Specified by:

evaluateWithDiscriminant in class AbstractDeltaCategorizer<CategoryType>

Parameters:

unknownVector -

Returns:

evaluate

public CategoryType evaluate(Vector unknownInput)

Evaluates an unknown input, but does not return the discriminant value. Only returns the category that the unknown input most likely corresponds to.

Parameters:

unknownInput -

Returns:
