  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    BasicModelG, BasicModelIF, BasicModelIn, BasicModelIne

    public abstract class BasicModel
    extends Object
    This class acts as the base class for the specific basic model implementations in the DFR framework. Basic models compute the informative content Inf1 = -log2Prob1 .

    • Method Detail

      • score

        public abstract double score​(BasicStats stats,
                                     double tfn,
                                     double aeTimes1pTfn)
        Returns the informative content score combined with the after effect, more specifically informationContentScore * aeTimes1pTfn / (1 + tfn). This function must be non-decreasing with tfn.
      • explain

        public abstract Explanation explain​(BasicStats stats,
                                            double tfn,
                                            double aeTimes1pTfn)
        Returns an explanation for the score. Subclasses must override this method.
      • toString

        public abstract String toString()
        Subclasses must override this method to return the code of the basic model formula. Refer to the original paper for the list.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
