Package org.apache.commons.math.estimation

Class EstimatedParameter

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable
    @Deprecated
public class EstimatedParameter
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
    Deprecated.
    as of 2.0, everything in package org.apache.commons.math.estimation has been deprecated and replaced by package org.apache.commons.math.optimization.general
    This class represents the estimated parameters of an estimation problem.

    The parameters of an estimation problem have a name, a value and a bound flag. The value of bound parameters is considered trusted and the solvers should not adjust them. On the other hand, the solvers should adjust the value of unbounds parameters until they satisfy convergence criterions specific to each solver.

        Deprecated.
        Simple constructor. Build an instance from a first estimate of the parameter, initially considered unbound.
        Parameters:
        name - name of the parameter
        firstEstimate - first estimate of the parameter

      • EstimatedParameter

        public EstimatedParameter​(java.lang.String name,

                          boolean bound)
        Deprecated.
        Simple constructor. Build an instance from a first estimate of the parameter and a bound flag
        Parameters:
        name - name of the parameter
        firstEstimate - first estimate of the parameter
        bound - flag, should be true if the parameter is bound

      • setEstimate

        public void setEstimate​(double estimate)
        Deprecated.
        Set a new estimated value for the parameter.
        Parameters:
        estimate - new estimate for the parameter

      • getEstimate

        public double getEstimate()
        Deprecated.

        Deprecated.
        Set the bound flag of the parameter
        Parameters:
        bound - this flag should be set to true if the parameter is bound (i.e. if it should not be adjusted by the solver).

        public boolean isBound()
        Deprecated.
        Check if the parameter is bound
        Returns:
