Method Detail

init

public void init(ExampleSet exampleSet)
          throws OperatorException

Description copied from class: DistanceMeasure

Before using a similarity measure, it is needed to initialize. Subclasses might use initializing for remembering the exampleset properties like attribute type or test if applicable to exampleSet at all. Please note that it might be necessary to also override the other init methods if this measure should make use of parameters or other IOObjects. Attention! Subclasses must call this super method to ensure correct initialization!

Overrides:

init in class DistanceMeasure

Parameters:

exampleSet - the exampleset

Throws:

OperatorException

calculateDistance

public double calculateDistance(double[] value1,
                                double[] value2)

Description copied from class: DistanceMeasure

This method does the calculation of the distance between two double arrays. The meanings of the double values might be remembered from the init method.

Specified by:

calculateDistance in class DistanceMeasure

Returns:

the distance

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
