All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<DecisionPostProcessingMethod>

public enum DecisionPostProcessingMethod
extends Enum<DecisionPostProcessingMethod>

The type of post processing to be applied to the distributions of decision nodes at the end of parameter learning.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant and Description
NOT_APPLICABLE There are no decision nodes in the network.
PROBABILITIES The distributions learned from the data are left intact and not overridden.
UNIFORM The distribution of each decision node is overwritten with a uniform distribution, but only once learning is complete.

Enum Constant Detail

NOT_APPLICABLE

public static final DecisionPostProcessingMethod NOT_APPLICABLE

There are no decision nodes in the network.

UNIFORM

public static final DecisionPostProcessingMethod UNIFORM

The distribution of each decision node is overwritten with a uniform distribution, but only once learning is complete. This option does not penalize a decision if it did not frequently occur in the training data.

PROBABILITIES

public static final DecisionPostProcessingMethod PROBABILITIES

The distributions learned from the data are left intact and not overridden. This option penalizes decisions based on their occurrence in the training data.

Method Detail

values

public static DecisionPostProcessingMethod[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (DecisionPostProcessingMethod c : DecisionPostProcessingMethod.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static DecisionPostProcessingMethod valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
