Member Function Documentation
◆ box_prob()
|
virtualinherited |
The probability of being in an axis-aligned box.
The box is defined by two points, the minimum and maximum. Implemented in terms of cumulative_prob() by default.
Reimplemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >.
Definition at line 89 of file vpdl_distribution.hxx.
◆ clone()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Create a copy on the heap and return base class pointer.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_mixture_of< dist_t >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian< T, n >, and vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >.
◆ compute_covar()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Compute the covariance of the distribution.
This may be trivial for distributions like Gaussians, but actually involves computation for others.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_mixture_of< dist_t >.
◆ compute_mean()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Compute the mean of the distribution.
This may be trivial for distributions like Gaussians, but actually involves computation for others.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian< T, n >, and vpdl_kernel_base< T, n >.
◆ cumulative_prob()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Evaluate the cumulative distribution function at a point.
This is the integral of the density function from negative infinity (in all dimensions) to the point in question
- Note
- It is not possible to compute this value for all functions in closed form. In some cases, numerical integration may be used. If no good solutions exists the function should return a quiet NaN.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian< T, n >.
◆ density()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Evaluate the unnormalized density at a point.
- Note
- This is not a probability density. To make this a probability multiply by norm_const()
- See also
- prob_density
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian< T, n >, and vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >.
◆ dimension()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Return the run time dimension, which does not equal n when n==0.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_mixture_of< dist_t >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian< T, n >, and vpdl_kernel_base< T, n >.
◆ gradient_density()
|
pure virtualinherited |
Compute the gradient of the unnormalized density at a point.
- Returns
- the density at pt since it is usually needed as well, and is often trivial to compute while computing gradient
- Return values
-
g the gradient vector
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian< T, n >.
◆ inverse_cdf()
|
virtualinherited |
Compute the inverse of the cumulative_prob() function.
The value of x: P(x'<x) = P for x' drawn from the distribution.
- Note
- This is only valid for univariate distributions multivariate distributions will return a quiet NaN
The value of x: P(x'<x) = P for x' drawn from the distribution. This is only valid for univariate distributions multivariate distributions will return -infinity
Definition at line 78 of file vpdl_distribution.hxx.
◆ log_prob_density()
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Evaluate the log probability density at a point.
Reimplemented in vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian< T, n >.
Definition at line 65 of file vpdl_distribution.h.
◆ norm_const()
|
pure virtualinherited |
The normalization constant for the density.
When density() is multiplied by this value it becomes prob_density norm_const() is reciprocal of the integral of density over the entire field
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_fbw_base< T, n >, vpdl_mixture_of< dist_t >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian< T, n >.
◆ num_components()
|
pure virtual |
The number of components.
Implemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_mixture_of< dist_t >, and vpdl_kernel_base< T, n >.
◆ prob_density()
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Evaluate the probability density at a point.
Reimplemented in vpdl_mixture< T, n >, vpdl_kernel_gaussian_sfbw< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_sphere< T, n >, vpdl_gaussian_indep< T, n >, and vpdl_gaussian< T, n >.
