Constructor Detail

AddFeatureExtractor

public AddFeatureExtractor(Collection<? extends FeatureExtractor<? super E>> extractors)

Construct an additive feature extractor from the specified collection of extractors. Each extractor in the collection must be capable of parsing objects of type E.

The collection will be copied locally, so that subsequent changes to the extractor collection supplied to the constructor will not affect the returned feature extractor.

Parameters:

extractors - Collection of feature extractors.

AddFeatureExtractor

public AddFeatureExtractor(FeatureExtractor<? super E> extractor1,
                           FeatureExtractor<? super E> extractor2)

Construct an additive feature extractor from the specified pair of extractors.

Parameters:

extractor1 - First feature extractor.

extractor2 - Second feature extractor.

AddFeatureExtractor

public AddFeatureExtractor(FeatureExtractor<? super E>... extractors)

Construct an additive feature extractor from the specified extractors.

Parameters:

extractors - Variable length list (or a single array) of extractors.

Method Detail

features

public Map<String,? extends Number> features(E in)

Description copied from interface: FeatureExtractor

Return the feature vector for the specified input.

Specified by:

features in interface FeatureExtractor<E>

Parameters:

in - Input object.

Returns:

The feature vector for the specified input.

baseFeatureExtractors

public List<FeatureExtractor<? super E>> baseFeatureExtractors()

Returns an unmodifiable view of the list of base feature extractors for this additive feature extractor.

Returns:

The base feature extractors.
