Abstract Value Members

  1. abstract val dependentAlgorithm: (Universe, List[NamedEvidence[_]]) ⇒ () ⇒ Double

    The algorithm to compute probability of specified evidence in a dependent universe.

    The algorithm to compute probability of specified evidence in a dependent universe. We use () => Double to represent this algorithm instead of an instance of ProbEvidenceAlgorithm. Typical usage is to return the result of ProbEvidenceAlgorithm.computeProbEvidence when invoked.

  16. def getNeededElements(starterElements: List[Element[_]], depth: Int): (List[Element[_]], Boolean)

    Get the elements that are needed by the query target variables and the evidence variables.

    Get the elements that are needed by the query target variables and the evidence variables. Also compute the values of those variables to the given depth. Only get factors for elements that are actually used by the target variables. This is more efficient. Also, it avoids problems when values of unused elements have not been computed.

    In addition to getting all the needed elements, it determines if any of the conditioned, constrained, or dependent universe parent elements has * in its range. If any of these elements has * in its range, the lower and upper bounds of factors will be different, so we need to compute both. If they don't, we don't need to compute bounds.
