Package org.djutils.stats.summarizers.quantileaccumulator

Class NoStorageAccumulator

java.lang.Object

org.djutils.stats.summarizers.quantileaccumulator.NoStorageAccumulator

All Implemented Interfaces:

QuantileAccumulator

public class NoStorageAccumulator
extends Object
implements QuantileAccumulator

The no storage accumulator accumulates nothing and estimates all requested quantiles from mean, standard deviation, etc. (as accumulated by the Tally class object). This is sensible if the input values are normally distributed. Do not use this accumulator when the input values are not normally distributes.

NoStorageAccumulator

public NoStorageAccumulator()

Method Details

ingest

public double ingest(double value)

Ingest one value with weight 1. Should be called only from the Tally object and AFTER processing the value in the tally.

Specified by:

ingest in interface QuantileAccumulator

Parameters:

value - double; the value

Returns:

double; the ingested value

getQuantile

public double getQuantile(Tally tally, double probability)

Compute (or approximate) the value that corresponds to the given fraction (percentile).

Specified by:

getQuantile in interface QuantileAccumulator

Parameters:

tally - Tally; the tally object that accumulates mean, minimum, maximum, count, etc.

probability - double; value between 0.0 and 1.0 (both inclusive)

Returns:

double; the computed or approximated quantile value

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

initialize

public void initialize()

Reset (clear all accumulated information).

Specified by:

initialize in interface QuantileAccumulator
