Definition at line 104 of file vpdfl_sampler_base.cxx.

void vpdfl_sampler_base::regular_samples ( vcl_vector< vnl_vector< double > > &  x) [virtual, inherited]

Fill x with samples possibly chosen so as to represent the distribution.

Generate a set of pseudo-random samples, chosen so as to be suitable to represent the distribution. This is meant to be used for estimating continuous integrals with sampled approximations. Where there are multiple peaks (e.g. kernel or mixture models), it is preferred that the number of samples from each component is roughly proportional to the weight for the component. When small numbers are requested, this can be done explicitly. The default is simply to call sample() for each element of x

Reimplemented in vpdfl_gaussian_kernel_pdf_sampler.

Definition at line 57 of file vpdfl_sampler_base.cxx.

void vpdfl_sampler_base::regular_samples_and_prob ( vcl_vector< vnl_vector< double > > &  x,
vnl_vector< double > &  p 
) [virtual, inherited]

Fill x with samples possibly chosen so as to represent the distribution.

As regular_samples(x), but p[i] is set to p(x[i])

Definition at line 67 of file vpdfl_sampler_base.cxx.

void vpdfl_axis_gaussian_sampler::reseed ( unsigned long  seed) [virtual]

Reseeds the internal random number generator.

To achieve quasi-random initialisation use;

 #include <vcl_ctime.h>
 ..
 sampler.reseed(vcl_time(0));

Implements vpdfl_sampler_base.

Definition at line 62 of file vpdfl_axis_gaussian_sampler.cxx.

void vpdfl_axis_gaussian_sampler::sample ( vnl_vector< double > &  x) [virtual]

Draw random sample from Gaussian distribution.

Implements vpdfl_sampler_base.

Definition at line 80 of file vpdfl_axis_gaussian_sampler.cxx.

void vpdfl_axis_gaussian_sampler::set_model ( const vpdfl_pdf_base model) [virtual]

Set model for which this is an instance.

Error check that it is an axis gaussian.

Reimplemented from vpdfl_sampler_base.
