Class MappingFamiliy

java.lang.Object
  de.unima.alcomox.mapping.MappingFamiliy

public class MappingFamiliy
extends java.lang.Object

A mapping familiy is a set of mapping togeterh with the information which matcher generated which mapping. It can be used to generate a merged mapping, with several different as adjustments/aggregations of confidence values.

Constructor Summary

MappingFamiliy()
Constructs an empty mapping family.

Method Summary

void	addMapping(java.lang.String matcherId, Mapping mapping) Adds a mapping to this family of mappings.
Mapping	getMergedMappingVC() Returns the merged mapping where confindences have been computed in a way such that the following holds for two correspondences c1 and c2: (1) conf(c1) <h; conf(c2) iff less systems found c1 (Vote)

MappingFamiliy

public MappingFamiliy()

Constructs an empty mapping family.

Method Detail

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

addMapping

public void addMapping(java.lang.String matcherId,
                       Mapping mapping)

Adds a mapping to this family of mappings.

Parameters:

matcherId - Id of the matcher which generated the mapping.

mapping - Mapping to be added.

getMergedMappingVC

public Mapping getMergedMappingVC()

Returns the merged mapping where confindences have been computed in a way such that the following holds for two correspondences c1 and c2: (1) conf(c1) <h; conf(c2) iff less systems found c1 (Vote). (2) conf(c1) <h; conf(c2) iff the same number of systems found c1 and c2 but c1 has a lower total of confidence values (Confidence). All confidences are spanned to [0.0, 1.0] before computing this.

Returns:

The merged mapping.
