All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable

public class FunctionNode

extends Node

A FunctionNode represents a real-valued function. This function is specified using expressions (which may refer to the values of the parents) in a Model.

Constructor Summary

FunctionNode(NetworkModel belongsTo)
Constructs a new FunctionNode in a NetworkModel (i.e., a Class or a Domain).

Method Summary

NetworkModel.Category	getCategory() Returns the Category of this FunctionNode.
NetworkModel.Kind	getKind() Returns the Kind of this FunctionNode.
double	getSampledValue() Returns the sampled value of this FunctionNode.
double	getValue() Returns the value of this FunctionNode.

Constructor Detail

FunctionNode

public FunctionNode(NetworkModel belongsTo)
             throws ExceptionHugin

Constructs a new FunctionNode in a NetworkModel (i.e., a Class or a Domain).

Parameters:

belongsTo - the NetworkModel in which the new FunctionNode should be created.

Method Detail

getCategory

public NetworkModel.Category getCategory()

Returns the Category of this FunctionNode.

Specified by:

getCategory in class Node

Returns:

NetworkModel.H_CATEGORY_FUNCTION.

getKind

public NetworkModel.Kind getKind()

Returns the Kind of this FunctionNode.

Specified by:

getKind in class Node

Returns:

NetworkModel.H_KIND_OTHER.

getValue

public double getValue()
                throws ExceptionHugin

Returns the value of this FunctionNode. The value is computed using the function associated with the node. If the function refers to other nodes, then the values of those nodes are derived from the results of the most recent inference operation.

Throws:

ExceptionHugin

getSampledValue

public double getSampledValue()
                       throws ExceptionHugin

Returns the sampled value of this FunctionNode. The value is computed using the function associated with the node. If the function refers to other nodes, then the values of those nodes are derived from the results of the most recent call to Domain.simulate().

Throws:

ExceptionHugin
