Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
CONSERVATIVE	Apply a conservative approach to collider orientation, favoring ambiguity when evidence for orientation is inconclusive.
MAX_P	Decide collider orientation by comparing the maximum p-value margins between two sides (includes given variable vs excludes given variable).
SEPSETS	Orient based on separating sets derived from the data.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name.
static Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Details

SEPSETS

public static final Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle SEPSETS

Orient based on separating sets derived from the data. Each pair of variables is analyzed to determine whether a separating set exists to justify collider orientation.

CONSERVATIVE

public static final Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle CONSERVATIVE

Apply a conservative approach to collider orientation, favoring ambiguity when evidence for orientation is inconclusive. This approach ensures orientational robustness under stricter constraints.

MAX_P

public static final Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle MAX_P

Decide collider orientation by comparing the maximum p-value margins between two sides (includes given variable vs excludes given variable). The decision is made based on which side has a strictly larger best p-value over a specified threshold margin.

Method Details

values

public static Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Cdnod.ColliderOrientationStyle valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
