Class ErfcWeight

java.lang.Object

de.lmu.ifi.dbs.elki.math.linearalgebra.pca.weightfunctions.ErfcWeight

All Implemented Interfaces:

WeightFunction

public final class ErfcWeight
extends java.lang.Object
implements WeightFunction

Gaussian Error Function Weight function, scaled such that the result it 0.1 at distance == max erfc(1.1630871536766736 * distance / max) The value of 1.1630871536766736 is erfcinv(0.1), to achieve the intended scaling.

Since:

0.2
