SimpleMarkovModel

public SimpleMarkovModel(int heads,

                         String name)

Method Detail

getChangeSupport

protected ChangeSupport getChangeSupport(ChangeType ct)

Description copied from class: AbstractChangeable

Called to retrieve the ChangeSupport for this object.

Your implementation of this method should have the following structure:

 ChangeSupport cs = super.getChangeSupport(ct);

 if(someForwarder == null && ct.isMatching(SomeInterface.SomeChangeType)) {
   someForwarder = new ChangeForwarder(...

   this.stateVariable.addChangeListener(someForwarder, VariableInterface.AChange);
 }

 return cs;
 

It is usual for the forwarding listeners (someForwarder in this example) to be transient and lazily instantiated. Be sure to register & unregister the forwarder in the code that does the ChangeEvent handling in setter methods.

Overrides:

getChangeSupport in class AbstractChangeable

emissionAlphabet

public Alphabet emissionAlphabet()

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Alphabet that is emitted by the emission states.

Specified by:

emissionAlphabet in interface MarkovModel

stateAlphabet

public FiniteAlphabet stateAlphabet()

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

FiniteAlphabet of the states.

We are modeling a finite-state-machine, so there will be a finite set of states.

The MagicalState returned by getMagicalState is always contained within this as the start/end state.

Specified by:

stateAlphabet in interface MarkovModel

Returns:

the alphabet over states

heads

public int heads()

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

The number of heads on this model.

Each head consumes a single SymbolList. A single-head model just consumes/ emits a single sequence. A two-head model performs alignment between two sequences (e.g. smith-waterman). Models with more heads do more interesting things.

heads() should equal advance().length.

Specified by:

heads in interface MarkovModel

Returns:

the number of heads in this model.

magicalState

public MagicalState magicalState()

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

The MagicalState for this model.

Specified by:

magicalState in interface MarkovModel

advance

public int[] advance()

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

The maximum advance for this model.

Each head consumes a single SymbolList. However, the states that advance through that SymbolList may emit more than one symbol at a time. This array give the maximum advance in each direction.

Specified by:

advance in interface MarkovModel

Returns:

the maximum advance of all states for all heads

getWeights

public Distribution getWeights(State source)
                        throws IllegalSymbolException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Get a probability Distribution over the transition from 'source'.

Specified by:

getWeights in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

source - the State currently occupied

Returns:

the probability Distribution over the reachable states

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if from is not a legal state

setWeights

public void setWeights(State source,
                       Distribution dist)
                throws IllegalSymbolException,
                       IllegalAlphabetException,
                       ChangeVetoException

Use this methods to customize the transition probabilities.

By default, the distribution P(destination | source) is a totally free distribution. This allows the different probabilities to vary. If you wish to change this behaviour (for example, to make one set of transition probabilities equal to another), then use this method to replace the Distribution with one of your own.

Specified by:

setWeights in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

source - source State

dist - the new Distribution over the transition probabilites from source

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if source is not a member of this model

IllegalAlphabetException - if dist is not a distribution over the states returned by model.transitionsFrom(source)

ChangeVetoException - if a listener vetoed this change

createTransition

public void createTransition(State from,
                             State to)
                      throws IllegalSymbolException,
                             ChangeVetoException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Makes a transition between two states legal.

This should inform each TransitionListener that a transition is to be created using preCreateTransition, and if none of the listeners fire a ChangeVetoException, it should create the transition, and then inform each TransitionListener with postCreateTransition.

Specified by:

createTransition in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

from - the State currently occupied

to - the State to move to

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if either from or to are not legal states

ChangeVetoException - if creating the transition is vetoed

destroyTransition

public void destroyTransition(State from,
                              State to)
                       throws IllegalSymbolException,
                              ChangeVetoException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Breaks a transition between two states legal.

This should inform each TransitionListener that a transition is to be broken using preDestroyTransition, and if none of the listeners fire a ChangeVetoException, it should break the transition, and then inform each TransitionListener with postDestroyTransition.

Specified by:

destroyTransition in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

from - the State currently occupied

to - the State to move to

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if either from or to are not legal states

ChangeVetoException - if breaking the transition is vetoed

containsTransition

public boolean containsTransition(State from,
                                  State to)
                           throws IllegalSymbolException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Returns wether a transition exists or not.

Specified by:

containsTransition in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

from - the transitin source

to - the transition destination

Returns:

true/false depending on wether this model has the transition

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if either from or to are not states in this model

transitionsFrom

public FiniteAlphabet transitionsFrom(State from)
                               throws IllegalSymbolException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Returns the FiniteAlphabet of all states that have a transition from 'source'.

Specified by:

transitionsFrom in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

from - the source State

Returns:

a FiniteAlphabet of State objects that can reach from 'source'

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException

              throws IllegalSymbolException,
                     ChangeVetoException

Description copied from interface: MarkovModel

Adds a state to the model.

Specified by:

addState in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

toAdd - the state to add

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if the state is not valid or is a MagicalState

public void removeState(State toGo)
                 throws IllegalSymbolException,

                        ChangeVetoException

States should not be removed untill they are involved in no transitions. This is to avoid producing corrupted models by accident.

Specified by:

removeState in interface MarkovModel

Parameters:

Throws:

IllegalSymbolException - if the symbol is not part of this model or a MagicalState

IllegalTransitionException - if the state is currently involved in any transitions
