Constructor Detail

MMRadSplit

public MMRadSplit(DistributionStrategy distributor)

Constructor.

Parameters:

distributor - Distribution strategy

Method Detail

split

public Assignments<E> split(AbstractMTree<?,N,E,?> tree,
                            N node)

Selects two objects of the specified node to be promoted and stored into the parent node. The mM-RAD strategy considers all possible pairs of objects and, after partitioning the set of entries, promotes the pair of objects for which the larger of the two covering radiuses is minimum.

Parameters:

tree - Tree to use

node - the node to be split

Returns:

the assignments of this split
