/**
 * 

Represents an * empirical probability distribution -- a probability distribution derived * from observed data without making any assumptions about the functional form * of the population distribution that the data come from.

* *

An EmpiricalDistribution maintains data structures, called * distribution digests, that describe empirical distributions and * support the following operations:

    *
  • loading the distribution from a file of observed data values
  • *
  • dividing the input data into "bin ranges" and reporting bin frequency * counts (data for histogram)
  • *
  • reporting univariate statistics describing the full set of data values * as well as the observations within each bin
  • *
  • generating random values from the distribution
  • *
* Applications can use EmpiricalDistribution to build grouped * frequency histograms representing the input data or to generate random values * "like" those in the input file -- i.e., the values generated will follow the * distribution of the values in the file.

* *

The implementation uses what amounts to the * * Variable Kernel Method with Gaussian smoothing:

* Digesting the input file *

  1. Pass the file once to compute min and max.
  2. *
  3. Divide the range from min-max into binCount "bins."
  4. *
  5. Pass the data file again, computing bin counts and univariate * statistics (mean, std dev.) for each of the bins
  6. *
  7. Divide the interval (0,1) into subintervals associated with the bins, * with the length of a bin's subinterval proportional to its count.
* Generating random values from the distribution
    *
  1. Generate a uniformly distributed value in (0,1)
  2. *
  3. Select the subinterval to which the value belongs. *
  4. Generate a random Gaussian value with mean = mean of the associated * bin and std dev = std dev of associated bin.

* *

EmpiricalDistribution implements the {@link RealDistribution} interface * as follows. Given x within the range of values in the dataset, let B * be the bin containing x and let K be the within-bin kernel for B. Let P(B-) * be the sum of the probabilities of the bins below B and let K(B) be the * mass of B under K (i.e., the integral of the kernel density over B). Then * set P(X < x) = P(B-) + P(B) * K(x) / K(B) where K(x) is the kernel distribution * evaluated at x. This results in a cdf that matches the grouped frequency * distribution at the bin endpoints and interpolates within bins using * within-bin kernels.

* *USAGE NOTES:
    *
  • The binCount is set by default to 1000. A good rule of thumb * is to set the bin count to approximately the length of the input file divided * by 10.
  • *
  • The input file must be a plain text file containing one valid numeric * entry per line.
