Expression

public Expression(FieldMetaInfo.Optype opType,
                  java.util.ArrayList<Attribute> fieldDefs)

Method Detail

setFieldDefs

public void setFieldDefs(java.util.ArrayList<Attribute> fieldDefs)
                  throws java.lang.Exception

Set the field definitions for this Expression to use

Parameters:

fieldDefs - the field definitions to use

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if there is a problem setting the field definitions

getResult

public abstract double getResult(double[] incoming)
                          throws java.lang.Exception

Get the result of evaluating the expression. In the case of a continuous optype, a real number is returned; in the case of a categorical/ordinal optype, the index of the nominal value is returned as a double.

Parameters:

incoming - the incoming parameter values

Returns:

the result of evaluating the expression

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if there is a problem computing the result

getResultContinuous

public double getResultContinuous(double[] incoming)
                           throws java.lang.Exception

Get the result of evaluating the expression for continuous optype. Is the same as calling getResult() when the optype is continuous.

Parameters:

incoming - the incoming parameter values mining schema

Returns:

the result of evaluating the expression.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the optype is not continuous.

getResultCategorical

public abstract java.lang.String getResultCategorical(double[] incoming)
                                               throws java.lang.Exception

Gets the result of evaluating the expression when the optype is categorical or ordinal as the actual String value.

Parameters:

incoming - the incoming parameter values

Returns:

the result of evaluating the expression

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if the optype is continuous

getExpression

public static Expression getExpression(org.w3c.dom.Node container,
                                       FieldMetaInfo.Optype opType,
                                       java.util.ArrayList<Attribute> fieldDefs,
                                       weka.core.pmml.TransformationDictionary transDict)
                                throws java.lang.Exception

Static factory method that returns a subclass of Expression that encapsulates the type of expression contained in the Element supplied. Assumes that there is just one expression contained in the supplied Element.

Parameters:

container - the Node containing the expression

opType - the optype of the value returned by this Expression.

fieldDefs - an ArrayList of Attributes for the fields that this Expression may need to access Since Expressions are children of either DerivedFields or DefineFuntions, they will have the same optype as their parent.

transDict - the TransformationDictionary (may be null if there is no dictionary)

Returns:

an Expression object or null if there is no known expression in the container

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - for unsupported Expression types

getExpression

public static Expression getExpression(java.lang.String name,
                                       org.w3c.dom.Node expression,
                                       FieldMetaInfo.Optype opType,
                                       java.util.ArrayList<Attribute> fieldDefs,
                                       weka.core.pmml.TransformationDictionary transDict)
                                throws java.lang.Exception

Static factory method that returns a subclass of Expression that encapsulates the type of expression supplied as an argument.

Parameters:

name - the name of the Expression to get

expression - the Node containing the expression

opType - the optype of the value returned by this Expression.

fieldDefs - an ArrayList of Attributes for the fields that this Expression may need to access Since Expressions are children of either DerivedFields or DefineFuntions, they will have the same optype as their parent.

transDict - the TransformationDictionary (may be null if there is no dictionary)

Returns:

an Expression object or null if there is no known expression in the container

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - for unsupported Expression types

getFieldDef

public Attribute getFieldDef(java.lang.String attName)

Return the named attribute from the list of reference fields.

Parameters:

attName - the name of the attribute to retrieve

Returns:

the named attribute (or null if it can't be found).

getFieldDefIndex

public int getFieldDefIndex(java.lang.String attName)

getOptype

public FieldMetaInfo.Optype getOptype()

Get the optype of the result of applying this Expression.

Returns:

the optype of the result of applying this Expression

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

toString

public java.lang.String toString(java.lang.String pad)
