Class FixedElapsedTime

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.commons.math3.genetics.FixedElapsedTime

All Implemented Interfaces:

StoppingCondition

public class FixedElapsedTime
extends Object
implements StoppingCondition

Stops after a fixed amount of time has elapsed.

The first time isSatisfied(Population) is invoked, the end time of the evolution is determined based on the provided maxTime value. Once the elapsed time reaches the configured maxTime value, isSatisfied(Population) returns true.

Since:

3.1

Constructor Detail

FixedElapsedTime

public FixedElapsedTime(long maxTime)
                 throws NumberIsTooSmallException

Create a new FixedElapsedTime instance.

Parameters:

maxTime - maximum number of seconds generations are allowed to evolve

Throws:

NumberIsTooSmallException - if the provided time is < 0

FixedElapsedTime

public FixedElapsedTime(long maxTime,
                        TimeUnit unit)
                 throws NumberIsTooSmallException

Create a new FixedElapsedTime instance.

Parameters:

maxTime - maximum time generations are allowed to evolve

unit - TimeUnit of the maxTime argument

Throws:

NumberIsTooSmallException - if the provided time is < 0

Method Detail

isSatisfied

public boolean isSatisfied(Population population)

Determine whether or not the maximum allowed time has passed. The termination time is determined after the first generation.

Specified by:

isSatisfied in interface StoppingCondition

Parameters:

population - ignored (no impact on result)

Returns:

true IFF the maximum allowed time period has elapsed
