Package org.tribuo.classification

Class LabelFactory

java.lang.Object

org.tribuo.classification.LabelFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.config.Configurable, com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenancable<OutputFactoryProvenance>, Serializable, OutputFactory<Label>

public final class LabelFactory
extends Object
implements OutputFactory<Label>

A factory for making Label related classes.

Parses the Label by calling toString on the input.

Label factories have no state, and are all equal to each other.

Field Details

UNKNOWN_LABEL

public static final Label UNKNOWN_LABEL

The singleton unknown label, used for unlablled examples.

Constructor Details

LabelFactory

public LabelFactory()

Constructs a label factory.

Method Details

generateOutput

public <V> Label generateOutput(V label)

Generates the Label string by calling toString on the input.

Specified by:

generateOutput in interface OutputFactory<Label>

Type Parameters:

V - The type of the input.

Parameters:

label - An input value.

Returns:

A Label object.

getUnknownOutput

public Label getUnknownOutput()

Description copied from interface: OutputFactory

Returns the singleton unknown output of type T which can be used for prediction time examples.

Specified by:

getUnknownOutput in interface OutputFactory<Label>

Returns:

An unknown output.

generateInfo

public MutableOutputInfo<Label> generateInfo()

Generates an empty MutableLabelInfo.

Specified by:

generateInfo in interface OutputFactory<Label>

Returns:

An empty MutableLabelInfo.

constructInfoForExternalModel

public ImmutableOutputInfo<Label> constructInfoForExternalModel(Map<Label,Integer> mapping)

Description copied from interface: OutputFactory

Creates an ImmutableOutputInfo from the supplied mapping. Requires that the mapping is dense in the integers [0,mapping.size()) and each mapping is unique.

This call is used to import external models, and should not be used for other purposes.

Specified by:

constructInfoForExternalModel in interface OutputFactory<Label>

Parameters:

mapping - The mapping to use.

Returns:

The appropriate subclass of ImmutableOutputInfo with a single observation of each element.

getEvaluator

public Evaluator<Label,LabelEvaluation> getEvaluator()

Description copied from interface: OutputFactory

Gets an Evaluator suitable for measuring performance of predictions for the Output subclass.

Evaluator instances are thread safe and immutable, and commonly this is a singleton stored in the OutputFactory implementation.

Specified by:

getEvaluator in interface OutputFactory<Label>

Returns:

An evaluator.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

getProvenance

public OutputFactoryProvenance getProvenance()

Specified by:

getProvenance in interface com.oracle.labs.mlrg.olcut.provenance.Provenancable<OutputFactoryProvenance>
