Module io.jenetics.prog
Package io.jenetics.prog.regression

Interface Sample<T>

Type Parameters:
T - the sample type
public interface Sample<T>
Represents a sample point used for the symbolic regression task. It consists of an argument array and a result value. The sample point is comparable according its result() value.
Since:
5.0
Version:
5.0
Implementation Requirements:
The dimensionality of the sample point must be at least one, which means arity() >= 1.

    • result

      T result()
      Return the result of the sample point.
      Returns:
      the result of the sample point

    • of

      static <T> Sample<T> of(T[] sample)
      Create a new sample point from the given argument and sample result. It represents the function arguments with the function value: f: sample[0:sample.length-1] -> sample[sample.length-1]. The last array element contains the result and the first n-1 elements are function arguments.
      Type Parameters:
      T - the sample type
      Parameters:
      sample - the sample point result
      Returns:
      a new sample point
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the argument array is empty
      NullPointerException - if the argument array is null

    • ofDouble

      static Sample<Double> ofDouble(double x, double y)
      Create a new sample point from the given argument and sample result. It represents the function arguments with the function value: f: x -> y
      Parameters:
      x - the argument
      y - the sample point result
      Returns:
      a new sample point

    • ofDouble

      static Sample<Double> ofDouble(double x1, double x2, double y)

      a new sample point

    • ofDouble

      static Sample<Double> ofDouble(double x1, double x2, double x3, double y)
