Class InverseLinearWeight

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    WeightFunction

    public final class InverseLinearWeight
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements WeightFunction
    Inverse linear weight function using .1+0.9distancemax.

    This weight is not particularly reasonable. Instead it serves the purpose of testing the effects of a badly chosen weight function.

    This function has increasing weight, from 0.1 to 1.0 when the distance equals the maximum.

    Since:
    0.2

      • getWeight

        public double getWeight​(double distance,
                                double max,
                                double stddev)
        Linear increasing weight, from 0.1 to 1.0

        NOTE: increasing weights are non-standard, and mostly for testing

        Specified by:
        getWeight in interface WeightFunction
        Parameters:
        distance - distance of the query point
        max - maximum distance of all included points
        stddev - standard deviation (i.e. quadratic mean / RMS) of the included points
        Returns:
        weight for the query point
