Method Detail

getFinalDistance

double getFinalDistance(Distance dist)

Computes some (weighted) average of the individual distance components.

Parameters:

dist - Distance object containing all dimensions of distances between log and model

Returns:

the final distance in form of a double. Values should be between 0 (best) and 1 (worst)

getModelLogDistance

double getModelLogDistance(Distance dist)

Parameters:

dist - Distance object containing all dimensions of distances between log and model

Returns:

the distance between the log and model in the current search state (it is usually computed based on precision, fitness, generalization)
