Member Function Documentation

bool Clusterer::clear ( )
virtual

This function clears the Clusterer module, removing any trained model and setting all the base variables to their default values.

Returns
returns true if the derived class was cleared succesfully, false otherwise

Reimplemented from MLBase.

Reimplemented in SelfOrganizingMap, HierarchicalClustering, ClusterTree, KMeans, and GaussianMixtureModels.

Definition at line 142 of file Clusterer.cpp.

This copies the Clusterer base class variables from the Clusterer pointer to this instance.

Parameters
clusterera pointer to a Clusterer from which the values will be copied to this instance
Returns
returns true if the copy was successfull, false otherwise

Definition at line 87 of file Clusterer.cpp.

Clusterer * Clusterer::createInstanceFromString ( std::string const &  ClustererType)
static

Creates a new Clusterer instance based on the input string (which should contain the name of a valid Clusterer such as KMeans).

Parameters
stringconst &ClustererType: the name of the Clusterer
Returns
Clusterer*: a pointer to the new instance of the Clusterer

Definition at line 29 of file Clusterer.cpp.

Clusterer * Clusterer::createNewInstance ( ) const

Creates a new Clusterer instance based on the current clustererType string value.

Returns
Clusterer*: a pointer to the new instance of the Clusterer

Definition at line 37 of file Clusterer.cpp.

Clusterer * Clusterer::deepCopy ( ) const

This creates a new Clusterer instance and deep copies the variables and models from this instance into the deep copy. The function will then return a pointer to the new instance. It is up to the user who calls this function to delete the dynamic instance when they are finished using it.

Returns
returns a pointer to a new Clusterer instance which is a deep copy of this instance

Definition at line 41 of file Clusterer.cpp.

virtual bool Clusterer::deepCopyFrom ( const Clusterer clusterer)
inlinevirtual

This is the base deep copy function for the Clusterer modules. This function should be overwritten by the derived class. This deep copies the variables and models from the Clusterer pointer to this Clusterer instance.

Parameters
clusterera pointer to the Clusterer base class, this should be pointing to another instance of a matching derived class
Returns
returns true if the clone was successfull, false otherwise (the Clusterer base class will always return flase)

Reimplemented in SelfOrganizingMap, HierarchicalClustering, ClusterTree, KMeans, and GaussianMixtureModels.

Definition at line 58 of file Clusterer.h.

const Clusterer & Clusterer::getBaseClusterer ( ) const

Returns the current bestDistance value. The bestDistance value is computed during the prediction phase and is either the minimum or maximum distance, depending on the algorithm. This value will return 0 if a prediction has not been made.

Returns
returns the current bestDistance value

Definition at line 244 of file Clusterer.cpp.

VectorFloat Clusterer::getClusterDistances ( ) const

Gets a Vector of the cluster distances from the last prediction, this will be an N-dimensional Vector, where N is the number of clusters in the model. The exact form of these distances depends on the cluster algorithm.
