Method Detail

getEvaluationFunction

public abstract org.ai_heuristic.functs.Function getEvaluationFunction(java.lang.String valueType,
                                                     java.lang.String functionType)
                                                                throws java.lang.Exception

Create and return the correct function/metric for the input parameters.

Parameters:

valueType - the type of object being evaluated.

functionType - the type of function to create.

Returns:

the created evaluation function.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - any error.

getEvaluationFunction

public abstract org.ai_heuristic.functs.Function getEvaluationFunction(java.lang.String valueType,
                                                     java.lang.String functionType,
                                                     org.ai_heuristic.def.EvaluateMathDef evaluateService,
                                                     java.util.HashMap configParams)
                                                                throws java.lang.Exception

Create and return the correct function/metric for the input parameters. This calls Function.createFunction in the first instance and tries to configure it.

Parameters:

valueType - the type of object being evaluated.

functionType - the type of function to create.

evaluateService - the evaluator. Can be null for a default evaluator.

configParams - a list of any input configuration parameters. Can be null for no parameters.

Returns:

the created evaluation function.

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - any error.
