Definition at line 19 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

pdf1d_exponential::pdf1d_exponential ( double  lambda)

Dflt ctor (creates exponential distribution in range [lo,hi]).

Definition at line 24 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

Destructor.

Definition at line 31 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.


Member Function Documentation

void pdf1d_exponential::b_read ( vsl_b_istream bfs) [virtual]

Load class from binary file stream.

Implements pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 187 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

void pdf1d_exponential::b_write ( vsl_b_ostream bfs) const [virtual]

Save class to binary file stream.

Implements pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 176 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

double pdf1d_exponential::cdf ( double  x) const [virtual]

Cumulative Probability (P(x'<x) for x' drawn from the distribution).

Returns 1-exp(-x/lambda)

Reimplemented from pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 75 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

bool pdf1d_exponential::cdf_is_analytic ( ) const [virtual]

Return true if cdf() uses an analytic implementation.

Reimplemented from pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 81 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

pdf1d_pdf * pdf1d_exponential::clone ( ) const [virtual]

Create a copy on the heap and return base class pointer.

Implements pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 157 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

void pdf1d_pdf::get_samples ( vnl_vector< double > &  x) const [inherited]

Fill x with samples drawn from distribution.

Utility function. This calls new_sampler() to do the work, then deletes the sampler again. If you intend calling this repeatedly, create a sampler yourself.

Definition at line 132 of file pdf1d_pdf.cxx.

double pdf1d_exponential::gradient ( double  x,
double &  p 
) const [virtual]

Gradient of PDF at x.

Implements pdf1d_pdf.

Definition at line 89 of file pdf1d_exponential.cxx.

double pdf1d_pdf::inverse_cdf ( double  P) const [virtual, inherited]

The inverse cdf.

The inverse cumulative distribution function.

The value of x: P(x'<x) = P for x' drawn from distribution pdf. The default version of this algorithm uses sampling if !cdf_is_analytic(), and Newton-Raphson root finding otherwise.

The value of x: P(x'<x) = P for x' drawn from distribution pdf.

Reimplemented in pdf1d_kernel_pdf.

Definition at line 288 of file pdf1d_pdf.cxx.

Compute nearest point to x which has a density above a threshold.

If log_p(x)>log_p_min then x returned unchanged. Otherwise x is moved (typically up the gradient) until log_p(x)>=log_p_min.

Parameters:
xThis may be modified to the nearest plausible position.
log_p_minlower threshold for log_p(x)
