getAbbreviation

public String getAbbreviation()

Returns the abbreviation for the statistic. This will be printed at the top of each column.

Specified by:

getAbbreviation in interface Statistic

Returns:

The abbreviation.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns a short one-line description of this statistic. This will be printed at the beginning of the report.

Specified by:

getDescription in interface Statistic

Returns:

The description of the statistic.

getValue

public double getValue(Graph trueDag,
 Graph trueGraph,
 Graph estGraph,
 DataModel dataModel,
 Parameters parameters)

Calculates the number of false positives for tail endpoints in the estimated graph compared to the true graph.

Specified by:

getValue in interface Statistic

Parameters:

trueDag - The true directed acyclic graph (DAG) representing the correct structure.

trueGraph - The true graph against which the estimated graph is evaluated.

estGraph - The estimated graph being analyzed for false positives.

dataModel - The data model containing the relevant data, unused in this calculation.

parameters - The parameters object containing configuration options, unused in this calculation.

Returns:

The number of false positives for tail endpoints in the estimated graph.

getNormValue

public double getNormValue(double value)

Calculates the normalized value of a statistic.

Specified by:

getNormValue in interface Statistic

Parameters:

value - The value of the statistic.

Returns:

The normalized value.
