Method Detail

learn

public UnivariateGaussian.PDF learn(java.util.Collection<? extends WeightedValue<? extends java.lang.Double>> data)

Creates a new instance of UnivariateGaussian using a weighted Maximum Likelihood estimate based on the given data

Specified by:

learn in interface BatchLearner<java.util.Collection<? extends WeightedValue<? extends java.lang.Double>>,UnivariateGaussian.PDF>

Parameters:

data - Weighed pairs of data (first is data, second is weight) that was generated by some unknown UnivariateGaussian distribution

Returns:

Maximum Likelihood UnivariateGaussian that generated the data
