Member Function Documentation

apply()

virtual std::vector<float> apply ( Dataset &  test_data ) const

pure virtual

Apply this expert onto a dataset.

Parameters

test_data

dataset

Implemented in TrivialExpert, TMVAExpertRegression, TMVAExpertMulticlass, TMVAExpertClassification, ReweighterExpert, RegressionExpert< BaseClassifierExpert, RegressionClassifierOptions >, PythonExpert, PDFExpert, FastBDTExpert, FANNExpert, and CombinationExpert.

applyMulticlass()

virtual std::vector<std::vector<float> > applyMulticlass ( Dataset &  test_data ) const

inlinevirtual

Apply this m_expert onto a dataset.

Multiclass mode. Not pure virtual, since not all derived classes to re-implement this.

Parameters

test_data

dataset.

Returns

vector of size N=test_data.getNumberOfEvents() with N=m_classes.size() scores for each event in the dataset.

Reimplemented in TrivialExpert, TMVAExpertMulticlass, and PythonExpert.

        B2ERROR("Attempted to call applyMulticlass() of the abstract base class MVA::Expert. All methods that support multiclass classification should override this definition.");
        (void) test_data;
 
        return std::vector<std::vector<float>>();
      };

load()

virtual void load ( Weightfile &  weightfile )

pure virtual

Load the expert from a Weightfile.

Parameters

weightfile

containing all information necessary to build the expert

Implemented in TrivialExpert, TMVAExpertRegression, TMVAExpertMulticlass, TMVAExpertClassification, TMVAExpert, ReweighterExpert, RegressionExpert< BaseClassifierExpert, RegressionClassifierOptions >, PythonExpert, PDFExpert, FastBDTExpert, FANNExpert, and CombinationExpert.
