public DataGenerator()

Method Detail

getWrappedAlgorithmClass

public Class getWrappedAlgorithmClass()

Get the class of the wrapped algorithm

Specified by:

getWrappedAlgorithmClass in class WekaAlgorithmWrapper

Returns:

the class of the wrapped algorithm

setWrappedAlgorithm

public void setWrappedAlgorithm(Object algo)

Set the algorithm to wrap

Overrides:

setWrappedAlgorithm in class WekaAlgorithmWrapper

Parameters:

algo - the algorithm to wrao

getDataGenerator

public DataGenerator getDataGenerator()

get the data generator

Returns:

the data generator

setDataGenerator

@ProgrammaticProperty
public void setDataGenerator(DataGenerator dataGenerator)

Set the data generator

Parameters:

dataGenerator -

stepInit

public void stepInit()

Initialize the step. Nothing to do in this case.

start

public void start()
           throws WekaException

Start the data generation process.

Specified by:

start in interface BaseStepExtender

Specified by:

start in interface Step

Overrides:

start in class BaseStep

Throws:

WekaException - if a problem occurs

outputStructureForConnectionType

public Instances outputStructureForConnectionType(String connectionName)
                                           throws WekaException

If possible, get the output structure for the named connection type as a header-only set of instances. Can return null if the specified connection type is not representable as Instances or cannot be determined at present.

Specified by:

outputStructureForConnectionType in interface Step

Overrides:

outputStructureForConnectionType in class BaseStep

Parameters:

connectionName - the name of the connection type to get the output structure for

Returns:

the output structure as a header-only Instances object

Throws:

WekaException - if a problem occurs

getIncomingConnectionTypes

public List<String> getIncomingConnectionTypes()

Get acceptable incoming connection types. None in this case since this step is a start point

Returns:

null (no acceptable incoming connections)

getOutgoingConnectionTypes

public List<String> getOutgoingConnectionTypes()

Get a list of outgoing connection types

Returns:

a list of outgoing connection types
