Constructor Detail

LongLabeler

public LongLabeler(weka.core.Instance instance,
                   boolean ignoreUnknowns,
                   MissingDataCompare mdc)

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the cardinality of the input instance is greater than LongLabel.MAX_CARDINALITY.

Method Detail

label

public LongLabel label(weka.core.Instance data)

Description copied from class: Labeler

Create a context label for the input instance by comparing it with the test instance.

Specified by:

label in class Labeler

Parameters:

data - Instance to be labeled

Returns:

the label for the context that the instance belongs to. The cardinality of the label will be the same as the test and data items. At any given index i, label.matches(i) will return true if that feature is the same in the test and data instances.

getLatticeTop

public Label getLatticeTop()

Description copied from class: Labeler

Creates and returns the label which belongs at the top of the boolean lattice formed by the subcontexts labeled by this labeler, i.e. the one for which every feature is a match.

Specified by:

getLatticeTop in class Labeler

Returns:

A label with all matches

getLatticeBottom

public Label getLatticeBottom()

Description copied from class: Labeler

Creates and returns the label which belongs at the bottom of the boolean lattice formed by the subcontexts labeled by this labeler, i.e. the one for which every feature is a mismatch.

Specified by:

getLatticeBottom in class Labeler

Returns:

A label with all mismatches

fromBits

public Label fromBits(int labelBits)

Description copied from class: Labeler

For testing purposes, this method allows the client to directly specify the label using the bits of an integer

Specified by:

fromBits in class Labeler

partition

public Label partition(Label label,
                       int partitionIndex)

Description copied from class: Labeler

In distributed processing, it is necessary to split labels into partitions. This method returns a partition for the given label. A full label is partitioned into pieces 0 through Labeler.numPartitions(), so code to process labels in pieces should look like this:

        Label myLabel = myLabeler.label(myInstance);
        for(int i = 0; i < myLabeler.numPartitions(); i++)
                process(myLabeler.partition(myLabel, i);
 

Specified by:

partition in class Labeler

partitionIndex - index of the partition to return

Returns:

a new label representing a portion of the attributes represented by the input label.
