Notes
This class is not usable because it has sense only within the
FunctionalChaosAlgorithm
: the least squares strategy evaluates the coefficientsof the polynomials decomposition as follows:
where
.
The mean expectation
is approximated by a relation of type:
where is a function
defined as:
In the approximation of the mean expectation, the set I, the points
and the weights
are evaluated from methods implemented in the
WeightedExperiment
.- __init__(*args)¶
- getClassName()¶
Accessor to the object’s name.
- Returns:
- class_namestr
The object class name (object.__class__.__name__).
- getDesignProxy()¶
Accessor to the design proxy.
- Parameters:
- designProxy
DesignProxy
The design matrix.
- designProxy
- getExperiment()¶
Accessor to the experiments.
- Returns:
- exp
WeightedExperiment
Weighted experiment used to evaluate the coefficients.
- exp
- getMeasure()¶
Accessor to the measure.
- Returns:
- muDistribution
Measure
defining the scalar product.
- getName()¶
Accessor to the object’s name.
- Returns:
- namestr
The name of the object.
- getRelativeError()¶
Accessor to the relative error.
- Returns:
- efloat
Relative error.
- getResidual()¶
Accessor to the residual.
- Returns:
