public class RightGaussianFuzzySet
extends RFuzzySet
implements java.io.Serializable

Used to build specialized FuzzySets that in have a shape similar to the right half of a gaussian curve with a 1 at the upper left edge and 0 at the lower right edge. The diagram below shows a RightGaussianFuzzySet.


The curves are defined by the following equation:



where a is the mean and sigma is the standard deviation.

Note that the Constructors have been defined to make the generation of such curves as simple as possible. Only the centre and the standard deviation of the gaussian curve need be specified (with an optional constructor that allows the number of points on the curve approximation to be specified if necessary). Points from 4 standard deviations right of the centre will be 0. Points to the left of the Centre point will be 1.

Constructor Detail

RightGaussianFuzzySet

public RightGaussianFuzzySet(double centre,
                             double standardDeviation)
                      throws XValuesOutOfOrderException
Generate a FuzzySet with the right half of a gaussian shape.

Parameters:
centre - the upper left of the curve with a membership value of 1
standardDeviation - the standard deviation for the gaussian curve (points 4 standard deviations to the right of the centre point will all be 0).
Throws:
XValuesOutOfOrderException - if the leftEdge argument is greater than the rightEdge argument

RightGaussianFuzzySet

public RightGaussianFuzzySet(double centre,
                             double standardDeviation,
                             int numPoints)
                      throws XValuesOutOfOrderException
Generate a FuzzySet with the right half of gaussian shape.

Parameters:
centre - the upper left of the curve with a membership value of 1
standardDeviation - the standard deviation for the gaussian curve (points 4 standard deviations to the right of the centre point will all be 0).
numPoints - the number of points to use to approximate the gaussian shape
Throws:
XValuesOutOfOrderException - if the leftEdge argument is less than the rightEdge argument
