Class RandomMonotonicPiecewiseLinear

java.lang.Object
edu.cmu.tetrad.search.utils.RandomMonotonicPiecewiseLinear
public class RandomMonotonicPiecewiseLinear extends Object
A class that generates and evaluates a monotonic piecewise linear function defined over a specified domain and range. The y-values of the function are randomly generated while ensuring monotonicity. The function supports both interpolation within the range and extrapolation outside the range.

      public RandomMonotonicPiecewiseLinear(int numPoints, double xMin, double xMax, double yMin, double yMax)
      Constructor to initialize a monotonic piecewise linear function.
      Parameters:
      numPoints - Number of points for the piecewise linear function.
      xMin - Minimum x-value for the domain.
      xMax - Maximum x-value for the domain.

  • Method Details

    • main

      public static void main(String[] args)
      The main method serves as the entry point for testing the functionality of the RandomMonotonicPiecewiseLinear class. It initializes parameters for creating an instance of the class, generates a monotonic piecewise linear function, and evaluates the function over a specified range of x-values.
      Parameters:
      args - Command-line arguments passed to the program. Not used in this method.

    • computeValue

      public double computeValue(double x)
      Compute the value of the monotonic piecewise linear function at a given x.
      Parameters:
      x - The x-value where the function is evaluated.
      Returns:
      The interpolated y-value.
