Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Sleipnir::CMeasureNegate::CMeasureNegate	(	const IMeasure *	pMeasure,
		bool	fMemory
	)		[inline]

Construct a new negation measure wrapping the given underlying measure.

Parameters:

pMeasure	Measure whose result should be negated.
fMemory	If true, the new negation measure is responsible for releasing the underlying measure's memory.

Remarks:

If fMemory is true, the negation measure will delete pMeasure when it is destroyed; otherwise, it will only hold a reference.

Member Function Documentation

IMeasure* Sleipnir::CMeasureNegate::Clone

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

Create a copy of the current measure object.

Returns:

Copy of the current measure object.

Remarks:

Caller is, of course, responsible for destroying the created object.

Implements Sleipnir::IMeasure.

Definition at line 237 of file measure.h.

References Sleipnir::IMeasure::Clone(), and CMeasureNegate().

const char* Sleipnir::CMeasureNegate::GetName

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

Return the human-readable unique identifier of the measure type.

Returns:

The string identifier of the measure type.

Implements Sleipnir::IMeasure.

Definition at line 229 of file measure.h.

References Sleipnir::IMeasure::GetName().

bool Sleipnir::CMeasureNegate::IsRank

(

)

const [inline, virtual]

Return true if the measure requires rank-based integer inputs.

Returns:

True if the measure requires rank-based input vectors.

Remarks:

The input vectors for rank measures should contain only floating point values with no fractional part; behavior is undefined if they don't.

Implements Sleipnir::IMeasure.

Definition at line 233 of file measure.h.

References Sleipnir::IMeasure::IsRank().

double Sleipnir::CMeasureNegate::Measure	(	const float *	adX,
		size_t	iN,
		const float *	adY,
		size_t	iM,
		EMap	eMap,
		const float *	adWX,
		const float *	adWY
	)		const [inline, virtual]

Calculate the measure between two given vectors with optional element weights.

Parameters:

adX	First array of values.
iN	Length of first array.
adY	Second array of values.
iM	Length of second array.
eMap	Way in which returned value should be centered (implementation-specific).
adWX	If non-null, weights of elements in the first array.
adWY	If non-null, weights of elements in the second array.

Returns:

Measure calculated between the two input vectors and, optionally, weights.

Remarks:

Pretty much every implementation will puke if given bad input; bounds checking etc. is minimal.
