Class ValueServer

java.lang.Object

fr.cnes.sirius.patrius.math.random.ValueServer

public class ValueServer
extends Object

Generates values for use in simulation applications.

How values are generated is determined by the mode property.

Supported mode values are:

• DIGEST_MODE -- uses an empirical distribution
• REPLAY_MODE -- replays data from valuesFileURL
• UNIFORM_MODE -- generates uniformly distributed random values with mean = mu
• EXPONENTIAL_MODE -- generates exponentially distributed random values with mean = mu
• GAUSSIAN_MODE -- generates Gaussian distributed random values with mean = mu and standard deviation = sigma
• CONSTANT_MODE -- returns mu every time.

Constructor Detail

ValueServer

public ValueServer()

Creates new ValueServer

ValueServer

public ValueServer(RandomGenerator generator)

Construct a ValueServer instance using a RandomGenerator as its source of random data.

Parameters:

generator - source of random data

Since:

3.1

Method Detail

getNext

public double getNext()
               throws IOException

Returns the next generated value, generated according to the mode value (see MODE constants).

Returns:

generated value

Throws:

IOException - in REPLAY_MODE if a file I/O error occurs

MathIllegalStateException - if mode is not recognized

MathIllegalArgumentException - if the underlying random generator thwrows one

fill

public void fill(double[] values)
          throws IOException

Fills the input array with values generated using getNext() repeatedly.

Parameters:

values - array to be filled

Throws:

IOException - in REPLAY_MODE if a file I/O error occurs

MathIllegalStateException - if mode is not recognized

MathIllegalArgumentException - if the underlying random generator thwrows one

fill

public double[] fill(int length)

length - length of output array

Returns:

array of generated values

computeDistribution

public void computeDistribution()
                         throws IOException

Computes the empirical distribution using values from the file in valuesFileURL, using the default number of bins.

valuesFileURL must exist and be readable by *this at runtime.

This method must be called before using getNext() with mode = DIGEST_MODE

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs reading the input file

NullArgumentException - if the valuesFileURL has not been set

ZeroException - if URL contains no data

computeDistribution

public void computeDistribution(int binCount)
                         throws IOException

Computes the empirical distribution using values from the file in valuesFileURL and binCount bins.

valuesFileURL must exist and be readable by this process at runtime.

This method must be called before using getNext() with mode = DIGEST_MODE

Parameters:

binCount - the number of bins used in computing the empirical distribution

Throws:

NullArgumentException - if the valuesFileURL has not been set

IOException - if an error occurs reading the input file

ZeroException - if URL contains no data

getMode

public int getMode()

Returns the data generation mode. See the class javadoc for description of the valid values of this property.

Returns:

Value of property mode.

setMode

public void setMode(int modeIn)

Sets the data generation mode.

Parameters:

modeIn - New value of the data generation mode.

getValuesFileURL

public URL getValuesFileURL()

Returns the URL for the file used to build the empirical distribution when using DIGEST_MODE.

Returns:

Values file URL.

setValuesFileURL

public void setValuesFileURL(String url)

public void setValuesFileURL(URL url)

Sets the the values file URL.

The values file must be an ASCII text file containing one valid numeric entry per line.

getEmpiricalDistribution

public EmpiricalDistribution getEmpiricalDistribution()

Returns the EmpiricalDistribution used when operating in 0.

public void closeReplayFile()
                     throws IOException

Closes valuesFileURL after use in REPLAY_MODE.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurs closing the file

getMu

public double getMu()

Returns the mean used when operating in GAUSSIAN_MODE, EXPONENTIAL_MODE or UNIFORM_MODE. When operating in CONSTANT_MODE, this is the constant value always returned. Calling computeDistribution() sets this value to the overall mean of the values in the values file.

Returns:

Mean used in data generation.

setMu

Parameters:

muIn - new Mean value.

getSigma

public double getSigma()

Returns the standard deviation used when operating in GAUSSIAN_MODE. Calling computeDistribution() sets this value to the overall standard deviation of the values in the values file. This property has no effect when the data generation mode is not GAUSSIAN_MODE.

Returns:

Standard deviation used when operating in GAUSSIAN_MODE.

setSigma

public void setSigma(double sigmaIn)

Sets the standard deviation used in GAUSSIAN_MODE.

Parameters:

sigmaIn - New standard deviation.

reSeed

public void reSeed(long seed)

Reseeds the random data generator.
