Detailed Description

Beaton-Tukey biweight.

The cost function for the Beaton-Tukey biweight is

\[ \rho(u) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \frac{B^2}{6} ( 1 - (1-(u/B)^2)^3 ), & |u| \le B \\ B^2/6, & |u| > B \end{array} \right. \]

The associated weight function is

\[ w(u) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} (1-(u/B)^2)^2, & |u| \le B \\ 0, & |u| > B \end{array} \right. \]

In this implementation, the constant $ \frac{B^2}{6} $ in $ \rho $ is ignored, since it doesn't affect the minimum.

Member Typedef Documentation

typedef vcl_vector<double>::const_iterator rrel_objective::vect_const_iter [inherited]

The iterators used to pass in values.

Since we don't allow member templates, we have to fix on a particular type of container for residuals. Using this typedef will allow things to easily change when member templates are allowed.

Definition at line 27 of file rrel_objective.h.

typedef vcl_vector<double>::iterator rrel_objective::vect_iter [inherited]

The iterators used to pass out values.

Definition at line 30 of file rrel_objective.h.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

rrel_tukey_obj::rrel_tukey_obj ( double  B)

Constructor.

B is the normalised residual value at which the cost becomes constant.

Definition at line 10 of file rrel_tukey_obj.cxx.

rrel_tukey_obj::~rrel_tukey_obj ( ) [virtual]

Destructor.

Definition at line 16 of file rrel_tukey_obj.cxx.


Member Function Documentation

virtual bool rrel_objective::can_estimate_scale ( ) const [inline, virtual, inherited]

True if the objective function can estimate scale.

Some objective functions, such as MUSE, can provide an accurate inlier scale estimate.

Reimplemented in rrel_muset_obj, and rrel_lms_obj.

Definition at line 72 of file rrel_objective.h.

double rrel_m_est_obj::fcn ( vect_const_iter  res_begin,
vect_const_iter  res_end,
vect_const_iter  scale_begin,
vnl_vector< double > *  = 0 
) const [virtual, inherited]

Evaluate the objective function on heteroscedastic residuals.

See also:
rrel_objective::fcn.

Implements rrel_objective.

Definition at line 5 of file rrel_m_est_obj.cxx.

double rrel_m_est_obj::fcn ( vect_const_iter  begin,
vect_const_iter  end,
double  scale,
vnl_vector< double > *  = 0 
) const [virtual, inherited]

Evaluate the objective function on homoscedastic residuals.

See also:
rrel_objective::fcn.

Implements rrel_objective.

Definition at line 19 of file rrel_m_est_obj.cxx.

virtual bool rrel_m_est_obj::requires_prior_scale ( ) const [inline, virtual, inherited]

False.

In general, most M-estimators work quite well with an estimated scale. The scale estimate should be robust, but not necessarily efficient (e.g. MAD scale estimate.)

Implements rrel_objective.

Definition at line 73 of file rrel_m_est_obj.h.

double rrel_tukey_obj::rho ( double  u) const [virtual]

The robust loss function for the M-estimator.

Implements rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 22 of file rrel_tukey_obj.cxx.

virtual double rrel_tukey_obj::rho ( double  r,
double  s 
) const [inline, virtual]

The robust loss function for the M-estimator.

Overriding the overloaded version rho(u) hides the superclass' implementation of this version of rho(). This implementation simply calls the superclass' version of the same routine. r is the residual and s is the scale for that residual.

Reimplemented from rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 53 of file rrel_tukey_obj.h.

double rrel_tukey_obj::rho_fast ( double  u) const [inline]

Fast version of the rho(u) computation.

Definition at line 99 of file rrel_tukey_obj.h.

virtual double rrel_objective::scale ( vect_const_iter  ,
vect_const_iter   
) const [inline, virtual, inherited]

Scale estimate.

The result is undefined if can_estimate_scale() is false.

Reimplemented in rrel_muset_obj, and rrel_lms_obj.

Definition at line 76 of file rrel_objective.h.

double rrel_tukey_obj::wgt ( double  u) const [virtual]

The weight of the residual.

Implements rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 28 of file rrel_tukey_obj.cxx.

virtual void rrel_tukey_obj::wgt ( vect_const_iter  res_begin,
vect_const_iter  res_end,
vect_const_iter  scale_begin,
vect_iter  wgt_begin 
) const [inline, virtual]

Evaluate the objective function on heteroscedastic residuals.

Overriding the overloaded version wgt(u) hides the superclass' implementation of this version of wgt(). This implementation simply calls the superclass' version of the same routine.

See also:
rrel_wls_obj::wgt()

Reimplemented from rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 64 of file rrel_tukey_obj.h.

virtual void rrel_tukey_obj::wgt ( vect_const_iter  begin,
vect_const_iter  end,
double  scale,
vect_iter  wgt_begin 
) const [inline, virtual]

Computes the weights for homoscedastic residuals.

Overriding the overloaded version wgt(u) hides the superclass' implementation of this version of wgt(). This implementation simply calls the superclass' version of the same routine.

See also:
rrel_wls_obj::wgt()

Reimplemented from rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 74 of file rrel_tukey_obj.h.

virtual double rrel_tukey_obj::wgt ( double  r,
double  s 
) const [inline, virtual]

The weight of the residual.

Overriding the overloaded version wgt(u) hides the superclass' implementation of this version of wgt(). This implementation simply calls the superclass' version of the same routine. r is the residual and s is the scale for that residual.

Reimplemented from rrel_m_est_obj.

Definition at line 85 of file rrel_tukey_obj.h.

double rrel_tukey_obj::wgt_fast ( double  u) const [inline]

Fast version of the wgt(u) computation.
