Method Detail

getHypothesisStatistic

public double getHypothesisStatistic()

Gets the statistic associated with the hypothesis before any test variables have evidence set. If the hypothesis variable is a discrete probability variable, the test statistic used is entropy (base e). If the hypothesis variable is a decision node, the test statistics is Maximum Expected Utility (MEU).

getTestOutputs

public List<ValueOfInformationTestOutput> getTestOutputs()

Gets the result of tests carried out on the test variables. Each test result indicates how likely it is that the test variable reduces the uncertainty of the hypothesis variable.
