Constructor Detail

KFoldCVAssessParameterSet

public KFoldCVAssessParameterSet()
                          throws UnsupportedOperationException
Constructs a new KFoldCVAssessParameterSet with empty parameter values. This constructor should only be used to create "filled" KFoldCVAssessParameterSets, i.e. to create KFoldCVAssessParameterSets from a set of values and not to fill it from the platform user interface.

Throws:
UnsupportedOperationException - if the KFoldCVAssessParameterSet could not be constructed or the parameters could not be loaded
See Also:
ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet.ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet()

KFoldCVAssessParameterSet

public KFoldCVAssessParameterSet(StringBuffer representation)
                          throws NonParsableException
The standard constructor for the interface Storable. Constructs a KFoldCVAssessParameterSet out of its XML representation.

Parameters:
representation - the XML representation as StringBuffer
Throws:
NonParsableException - if the KFoldCVAssessParameterSet could not be reconstructed out of the XML representation (the StringBuffer representation could not be parsed)
See Also:
ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet.ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet(StringBuffer), Storable

KFoldCVAssessParameterSet

public KFoldCVAssessParameterSet(Sample.PartitionMethod dataSplitMethod,
                                 int elementLength,
                                 boolean exceptionIfMPNotComputable,
                                 int k)
                          throws SimpleParameter.IllegalValueException
Constructs a new KFoldCVAssessParameterSet with given parameter values.

Parameters:
dataSplitMethod - defines the method used to split user supplied data into k mutually exclusive random-splits (available options are: Sample.PartitionMethod.PARTITION_BY_NUMBER_OF_ELEMENTS and Sample.PartitionMethod.PARTITION_BY_NUMBER_OF_SYMBOLS)
elementLength - defines the length of elements (sequences) the classifiers to be assessed are able to classify
exceptionIfMPNotComputable - a KFoldCVAssessParameterSet is used in combination with a MeasureParameters-object to call assess( ... )-methods of KFoldCrossValidations, if exceptionIfMPNotComputable==true an Exception is thrown in case of a user selected measure parameters that could not be computed.
k - defines the number of mutually exclusive random-splits of user supplied data. Each part is used once as a test dataset and the union of the remaining k-1 parts is once used as train dataset. Thus k also defines how many ( k) repeated classifier trainings and classifier evaluations (tests) are performed.
Throws:
SimpleParameter.IllegalValueException - in case of out-of-range or invalid given parameters

Method Detail

initializeMyParametersArrayList

protected void initializeMyParametersArrayList()
Description copied from class: ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
Initializes the list of Parameters in this ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet.

Overrides:
initializeMyParametersArrayList in class ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
See Also:
ParameterSet.initParameterList(int initCapacity)

loadParameters

protected void loadParameters()
                       throws Exception
Description copied from class: ParameterSet

Overrides:
loadParameters in class ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
Throws:
Exception - if the parameters could not be loaded
See Also:
Parameter, ParameterSet.parameters, ParameterSet.initParameterList(), ParameterSet.initParameterList(int)

getK

public int getK()
Returns the number of mutually exclusive random-splits of user supplied data defined by this KFoldCVAssessParameterSet.

Returns:
the number of mutually exclusive random-splits of user-supplied data defined by this KFoldCVAssessParameterSet

getDataSplitMethod

public Sample.PartitionMethod getDataSplitMethod()
Returns the Sample.PartitionMethod defining how the mutually exclusive random-splits of user supplied data are generated.

Returns:
the Sample.PartitionMethod defining how the mutually exclusive random-splits of user supplied data are generated
See Also:
Sample.PartitionMethod

getAnnotation

public ArrayList<Result> getAnnotation()
Description copied from class: ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
Returns a Collection of parameters containing informations about this ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet.

Overrides:
getAnnotation in class ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
Returns:
a Collection of parameters containing informations about this ClassifierAssessmentAssessParameterSet
