Class Case

java.lang.Object
  cbr.framework.Case

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<Case>

public class Case
extends Object
implements Comparable<Case>

A case consists of indexed and non-indexed features, a solution and the last similarity value that was computed for this case.

Constructor Summary

Case()
Create an empty case.

Case(Map<String,Feature> allFeatures)
Create a case with features contained in a Map.

Method Summary

void	addFeature(Feature f) Add a feature to the case.
int	compareTo(Case other) Override the compareTo() method so that Cases can be sorted according to descending similarity.
double	getOutcomeValue() Retrieve the outcome value for this case.
double	getSimilarity() Get the last similarity value that was derived.
Solution	getSolution() Retrieve the solution for this case.
void	setOutcomeValue(double value) Set the Outcome value for this case.
void	setSolution(Solution solution) Set the Solution for this case.
String	toString() Iterate over the features, solution and current similarity and display each of their values.
