Method Detail

init

void init(Configuration configuration)
          throws AlgorithmException

Initialises the algorithm.

Parameters:

configuration - the configuration to be used for the initialisation of the algorithm.

Throws:

AlgorithmException - if there is a problem in the algorithm's initialisation phase.

recognise

ResultSet recognise(Gesture<?> gesture)
                    throws AlgorithmException

Runs the recogniser on a given set of strokes represented by a gesture.

Parameters:

gesture - the gesture to be recognised.

Returns:

the result set containing the recognised gesture classes.

Throws:

AlgorithmException - if there was an exception while recognising the note.

getConfigParameters

Enum<?>[] getConfigParameters()

Returns an array of containing the configuration parameters.

Returns:

the configuration parameters.

getDefaultParameterValue

String getDefaultParameterValue(String parameterName)

Returns the default value for a given parameter.

Parameters:

parameterName - the name of the parameter whose default value has to be returned.

Returns:

the default value for the specified parameter.

getType

int getType()

Get the type of algorithm
