All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class IsotonicRegression
extends Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Isotonic regression. Currently implemented using parallelized pool adjacent violators algorithm. Only univariate (single feature) algorithm supported.

Constructor Detail

IsotonicRegression

public IsotonicRegression()

Constructs IsotonicRegression instance with default parameter isotonic = true.

Method Detail

setIsotonic

public IsotonicRegression setIsotonic(boolean isotonic)

Sets the isotonic parameter.

Parameters:

isotonic - Isotonic (increasing) or antitonic (decreasing) sequence.

Returns:

This instance of IsotonicRegression.

run

public IsotonicRegressionModel run(RDD<scala.Tuple3<Object,Object,Object>> input)

Run IsotonicRegression algorithm to obtain isotonic regression model.

Parameters:

input - RDD of tuples (label, feature, weight) where label is dependent variable for which we calculate isotonic regression, feature is independent variable and weight represents number of measures with default 1. If multiple labels share the same feature value then they are ordered before the algorithm is executed.

Returns:

Isotonic regression model.

run

public IsotonicRegressionModel run(JavaRDD<scala.Tuple3<Double,Double,Double>> input)

Run pool adjacent violators algorithm to obtain isotonic regression model.

Parameters:

input - JavaRDD of tuples (label, feature, weight) where label is dependent variable for which we calculate isotonic regression, feature is independent variable and weight represents number of measures with default 1. If multiple labels share the same feature value then they are ordered before the algorithm is executed.

Returns:

Isotonic regression model.
