com.badlogic.gdx.math.WindowedMean

public final class WindowedMean
extends Object

Constructor Detail

WindowedMean

public WindowedMean(int window_size)

constructor, window_size specifies the number of samples we will continuously get the mean and variance from. the class will only return meaning full values if at least window_size values have been added.

Parameters:

window_size - size of the sample window

Method Detail

hasEnoughData

public boolean hasEnoughData()

Returns:

whether the value returned will be meaningful

clear

public void clear()

clears this WindowedMean. The class will only return meaningful values after enough data has been added again.

addValue

public void addValue(float value)

adds a new sample to this mean. In case the window is full the oldest value will be replaced by this new value.

Parameters:

value - The value to add

getMean

public float getMean()

returns the mean of the samples added to this instance. Only returns meaningful results when at least window_size samples as specified in the constructor have been added.

Returns:

the mean

getOldest

public float getOldest()

Returns:

the oldest value in the window

getLatest

public float getLatest()

Returns:

the value last added

standardDeviation

public float standardDeviation()

Returns:

The standard deviation
