Enum Constant Detail

NONE

public static final DiscretizationMethod NONE

Do not discretize.

CLUSTERING

public static final DiscretizationMethod CLUSTERING

Discretize using a probabilistic clustering algorithm.

EQUAL_INTERVALS

public static final DiscretizationMethod EQUAL_INTERVALS

Discretize using equal width intervals.

EQUAL_FREQUENCIES

public static final DiscretizationMethod EQUAL_FREQUENCIES

Method Detail

values

public static DiscretizationMethod[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (DiscretizationMethod c : DiscretizationMethod.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static DiscretizationMethod valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
