Constructor Detail

SolverHeuristics

public SolverHeuristics(java.util.ArrayList<ModuleSolverFactory> theSolverModules)

Create a new instance of SolverHeuristics.

Parameters:

theSolverModules - list of solver modules.

Method Detail

getHeuristicOptions

public abstract java.util.ArrayList<java.lang.String> getHeuristicOptions(java.lang.String solverType,
                                                                          java.lang.String heuristicType,
                                                                          java.lang.String metricType)

Get a list of possible heuristic options for the specified heuristic types. This can include variables for the evaluation metric as well.

Parameters:

solverType - the solver framework: hyper, distributed, etc.

heuristicType - the heuristic framework.

metricType - the evaluator of the heuristic. This is also considered, but can be null.

Returns:

the list of options for the heuristic. This could be evolution types for a genetic algorithm, for example, but for other heuristics it could be a completely different set of values.

getDefaultSolverClasses

public abstract java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,java.util.HashMap<java.lang.String,org.ai_heuristic.model.FactoryInfo>> getDefaultSolverClasses()

Get the list of solver classes that can be loaded from the default package.

Returns:

a list of FactoryInfo objects for each solver function type.

getAllDatasetTypes

public abstract java.util.ArrayList<java.lang.String> getAllDatasetTypes()

Get a list of all available dataset types.

Returns:

the list of all dataset types.

getAllDatasetTypeDescriptions

public abstract java.util.ArrayList<java.lang.String> getAllDatasetTypeDescriptions()

Get a list of all available dataset type descriptions.

Returns:

the list of all dataset types.

getTextDatasetTypes

public abstract java.util.ArrayList<java.lang.String> getTextDatasetTypes()

Get a list of available text-based dataset types.

Returns:

the list of dataset type objects.
