Package edu.cmu.tetrad.sem

Class Ricf

java.lang.Object

edu.cmu.tetrad.sem.Ricf

public class Ricf
extends Object

Implements ICF as specified in Drton and Richardson (2003), Iterative Conditional Fitting for Gaussian Ancestral Graph Models, using hints from previous implementations by Drton in the ggm package in R and by Silva in the Purify class. The reason for reimplementing in this case is to take advantage of linear algebra optimizations in the COLT library.

Constructor Details

Ricf

public Ricf()

Represents the Ricf class. This class provides methods for calculating the Restricted Information Criterion Fusion (RICF) for a given SemGraph.

Method Details

ricf

public Ricf.RicfResult ricf(SemGraph mag,
 ICovarianceMatrix covMatrix,
 double tolerance)

Calculates the Restricted Information Criterion Fusion (RICF) for a given SemGraph.

Parameters:

mag - The SemGraph object representing the graph to calculate RICF for.

covMatrix - The ICovarianceMatrix object representing the covariance matrix.

tolerance - The tolerance value for convergence.

Returns:

The RicfResult object containing the results of the RICF calculation.

ricf2

public Ricf.RicfResult ricf2(Graph mag,
 ICovarianceMatrix covMatrix,
 double tolerance)

Same as above but takes a Graph instead of a SemGraph

Parameters:

mag - a Graph object

covMatrix - a ICovarianceMatrix object

tolerance - a double

Returns:

a Ricf.RicfResult object

cliques

public List<List<Node>> cliques(Graph graph)

cliques.

Parameters:

graph - a Graph object

Returns:

an enumeration of the cliques of the given graph considered as undirected.
