Field Detail

values

protected final org.apache.commons.math3.linear.ArrayRealVector values

The values to quantize to. Subclasses must not modify this array after the object has been constructed.

Constructor Detail

ValueArrayQuantizer

public ValueArrayQuantizer(double[] vs)

Construct a new quantizer using the specified array of values.

Parameters:

vs - The discrete values to quantize to.

ValueArrayQuantizer

public ValueArrayQuantizer(org.apache.commons.math3.linear.RealVector vs)

Method Detail

getValues

public org.apache.commons.math3.linear.RealVector getValues()

Description copied from interface: Quantizer

Get the possible values into which this quantizer will map input values. These are the values corresponding to each “bin” into which the quantizer will put values.

Specified by:

getValues in interface Quantizer

Returns:

The values of the discrete bins.

getCount

public int getCount()

Description copied from interface: Quantizer

Get the number of discrete values the output can take.

Specified by:

getCount in interface Quantizer

Returns:

The number of possible discrete values.

getIndexValue

public double getIndexValue(int i)

Description copied from interface: Quantizer

Get the value corresponding to a quantized value, based on the index into the list of possible values.

Specified by:

getIndexValue in interface Quantizer

Parameters:

i - The quantized value number, in the range [0,n) where n is the number of possible discrete values (see Quantizer.getCount()).

Returns:

The value corresponding to quantum i.

index

public int index(double val)

Description copied from interface: Quantizer

Convert a value into a discrete, quantized value.

Specified by:

index in interface Quantizer

Parameters:

val - A value to quantize.

Returns:

The index of the discrete value to which val is mapped.

quantize

public double quantize(double val)

Description copied from interface: Quantizer

Convert a value into a quantized value, returning the quantized value.

Specified by:

quantize in interface Quantizer

Parameters:

val - A value to quantize.

Returns:

The quantized value.
