Class MovingAverage

java.lang.Object

nl.liacs.timeseries.kernel.AbstractKernel

nl.liacs.timeseries.kernel.MovingAverage

public class MovingAverage
extends ContinuousKernel

MovingAverage kernels calculate the output value based on all preceding input values read so far.

NOTE: (Cumulative)MovingAverage differs from SimpleMovingAverage. SimpleMovingAverage is a discrete kernel having a predefined finite width. MovingAverage is a continuous kernel, having 'unlimited' width.

Constructor Detail

MovingAverage

public MovingAverage()

Constructs a MovingAverage kernel. The (cumulative) moving average is calculated based on the previous and current value(s).

Method Detail

applyTo

@Deprecated
public double[] applyTo(double[] theInput)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Apply the kernel to the specified array, with the specified delay.

In general, for kernels for which AbstractKernel.getHasWidth() returns true, the application of the kernel to the head and tail of the input array is undefined. This method will fill in the values for which this condition applies by using the OutOfBoundsPolicy set for the kernel.

Specified by:

applyTo in class AbstractKernel

Parameters:

theInput - The array to apply the kernel to.

Returns:

A new double[] with the result.

applyTo

public double[] applyTo(double[] theInput,
               int theDelay)

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Apply the kernel to the specified array, with the specified delay.

The delay may be 0, positive or negative. For a delay of 0 the values in the return array map directly to the input array. For a positive delay of n the values in the input array are 'shifted' n indices to the right. For a negative delay this 'shift' is to the left.

In general, for kernels for which AbstractKernel.getHasWidth() returns true, the application of the kernel to the head and tail of the input array is undefined. This method will fill in the values for which this condition applies by using the OutOfBoundsPolicy set for the kernel.

Specified by:

applyTo in class AbstractKernel

Parameters:

theInput - The array to apply the kernel to.

theDelay - The delay to use.

Returns:

A new double[] with the result.

getGuiText

@Deprecated
public java.lang.String getGuiText()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns the GUI friendly text for the kernel.

For most kernels this method returns the same result as a call to kernel.class.getSimpleName(). For some, the returned String will include some white spaces that beak up the various words, such that it forms regular text.

Specified by:

getGuiText in class AbstractKernel

Returns:

A GUI friendly String.

getShortText

@Deprecated
public java.lang.String getShortText()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns the short text for the kernel.

Specified by:

getShortText in class AbstractKernel

Returns:

A short String indicative of the class name.

getHasWidth

@Deprecated
public boolean getHasWidth()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns whether the kernel has a width.

This is true for a DiscreteKernel, and false for a ContinuousKernel.

Overrides:

getHasWidth in class ContinuousKernel

Returns:

true iff the kernel has a width, false otherwise.

See Also:

ContinuousKernel, DiscreteKernel

getHasOOBP

@Deprecated
public boolean getHasOOBP()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns whether the kernel has an OutOfBoundsPolicy.

This is true for a DiscreteKernel, and false for a ContinuousKernel.

Overrides:

getHasOOBP in class ContinuousKernel

Returns:

true iff the kernel has an out of bounds policy, false otherwise.

See Also:

OutOfBoundsPolicy, ContinuousKernel, DiscreteKernel

getHasDelay

@Deprecated
public boolean getHasDelay()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns whether a delay can be set for the kernel.

This is true for almost all kernels, but not for MovingAverage.

Specified by:

getHasDelay in class AbstractKernel

Returns:

true iff a delay can be set for the kernel, false otherwise.

getNrExtraFields

@Deprecated
public int getNrExtraFields()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: AbstractKernel

Returns the number of extra fields for the kernel.

Extra fields hold kernel specific configuration settings, not shared with other kernels.

Specified by:

getNrExtraFields in class AbstractKernel

Returns:

The number of extra fields.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns the String representation of this Kernel.

Specified by:

toString in class AbstractKernel

Returns:

The String representation of the kernel.
