Constructor Detail

ClustererPerformanceEvaluator

public ClustererPerformanceEvaluator()

Method Detail

getIncomingConnectionTypes

public java.util.List<java.lang.String> getIncomingConnectionTypes()

Get a list of incoming connection types that this step can accept. Ideally (and if appropriate), this should take into account the state of the step and any existing incoming connections. E.g. a step might be able to accept one (and only one) incoming batch data connection.

Returns:

a list of incoming connections that this step can accept given its current state

getOutgoingConnectionTypes

public java.util.List<java.lang.String> getOutgoingConnectionTypes()

Get a list of outgoing connection types that this step can produce. Ideally (and if appropriate), this should take into account the state of the step and the incoming connections. E.g. depending on what incoming connection is present, a step might be able to produce a trainingSet output, a testSet output or neither, but not both.

Returns:

a list of outgoing connections that this step can produce

stepInit

public void stepInit()

Initialize the step.

Throws:

WekaException - if a problem occurs during initialization

processIncoming

public void processIncoming(Data data)
                     throws WekaException

Process an incoming data payload (if the step accepts incoming connections)

Specified by:

processIncoming in interface BaseStepExtender

Specified by:

processIncoming in interface Step

Overrides:

processIncoming in class BaseStep

Parameters:

data - the payload to process

Throws:

WekaException - if a problem occurs
