NumFuncC
Handle class for numerical functions of the form Y=f(X).
include	"amma/Num/NumFunc.hh"
User Level:	Default
Library:	NumFunc
Example:	testNumFunc.cc
Section:	Numerical Methods.Multidimensional Functions
In Scope:	std

Comments:
Base handle class for multidimensional functions of form Y=f(X) where Y and X are both vectors. Ass with all other classes in this hierarchy, it can be constructed from a stream (a previously save derived object), from another NumFuncC & (copy constructor) or from a reference to a derived implementation class.

Base class in the PatternRec hierarchy for handling all numerical functions through a common interface. Several derived classes fit different pattern recognition tasks to this format, eg model fitting, classification and cost functions for optimisation.

The advantage of using algorithms that are derived from NumFuncC is that they can be used in conjunction with the other tools in the PatternRec toolbox, eg for optimisation since the cost functions, magnitude estimators and optimisers are already implemeted.

NumFuncC()

Default constructor
Creates an invalid handle.

NumFuncC(istream & in)

Constructs from stream

NumFuncC(const NumFuncC & oth)

Copy constructor

NumFuncC(NumFuncBC & oth)

Body Constructor.

BooleanT IsA(const DPEntityC & pb)

Check if an object is a NumFuncC.

NumFuncC(const DPProcessBaseC & pb)

NumFuncC Copy() const

Makes a deep copy

NumFuncC & operator=(const NumFuncC & oth)

Assignment operator

VectorC Evaluate(const VectorC & X) const

Evaluates function Y=f(X)

DListC<VectorC> Evaluate(const DListC<VectorC> & listX) const

Evaluates function Y=f(X) for a list of X

VectorC operator()(const VectorC & X) const

UIntT SizeY() const

Output vector dimension

BooleanT Save(ostream & out) const

Writes object to stream, cna be loaded using constructor

VectorC Apply(const VectorC & dat)

Apply operation.
NB. This may become constant in the future, but the situation isn't clear at the moment.

IntT ApplyArray(const SArray1dC<VectorC> & in,SArray1dC<VectorC> & out)

Streaming version.

const DPProcessC<VectorC,VectorC> operator=(const DPProcessC<VectorC,VectorC> & in)

Turn this into an invalid handle.

DPEntityBodyC & Body()

Direct access to body.

const DPEntityBodyC & Body() const

Constant access to body.
