      • getOptions

        public String[] getOptions()
        Gets the current settings of the filter.
        Specified by:
        getOptions in interface weka.core.OptionHandler

      • getCapabilities

        public weka.core.Capabilities getCapabilities()
        Returns the Capabilities of this filter. Derived filters have to override this method to enable capabilities.
        Specified by:
        getCapabilities in interface weka.core.CapabilitiesHandler

      • determineOutputFormat

        protected weka.core.Instances determineOutputFormat​(weka.core.Instances inputFormat)
                                             throws Exception
        Determines the output format based on the input format and returns this. In case the output format cannot be returned immediately, i.e., hasImmediateOutputFormat() returns false, then this method will called from batchFinished() after the call of preprocess(Instances), in which, e.g., statistics for the actual processing step can be gathered.
        Specified by:
        determineOutputFormat in class weka.filters.SimpleStreamFilter
        Parameters:
        inputFormat - the input format to base the output format on
        Returns:
        the output format
        Throws:
        Exception - in case the determination goes wrong

      • process

        protected weka.core.Instance process​(weka.core.Instance instance)

        processes the given instance (may change the provided instance) and returns the modified version.
        Specified by:
        process in class weka.filters.SimpleStreamFilter
        Parameters:
        instance - the instance to process
        Returns:
        the modified data
        Throws:
        Exception - in case the processing goes wrong
