Prerequisite

Synopsis

This class takes an arbitrary number of Function objects, and generates a new, single function object. The parameters of the compound object are the union of all the parameters in the input objects.

When CompoundFunction is evaluated, the result is the sum of all the individual function values.

Member functions are added with the addFunction() method.

In general the interaction with the function parameters should be through the overall function parameters (i.e. through the parameters of the CompoundFunction). If for any reason you want to set the parameters of an individual function (see e.g. the example in the Fit2D), call consolidate() before abd after the actual setting.


Tip: Check CombiFunction class for a simple linear combination of function objects

Example

Suppose for some reason we wanted the sum of x^2 plus a gaussian. We could form it as follows:

Polynomial<Float> x2(2);
x[2] = 1.0; // x^2
Gaussian1D<Float> gauss(1.0, 0.0, 1.0); // e^{-x^2}
CompoundParam<Float> sum; // sum == 0.0
sum.addFunction(x2); // sum == x^2
sum.addFunction(gauss); // sum == x^2+e^{-x^2}
sum(2.0); // == 4 + e^-4
CompoundParam[0] = 2.0; // sum ==2x^2+e^{-x^2}
sum(2.0); // == 8 + e^-4

Motivation

This class was created to allow a non-linear least squares fitter to fit a (potentially) arbitrary number of functions (typically Gaussians).

To Do

Definition at line 114 of file CompoundFunction.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T>
casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::CompoundFunction ( )
inline

The default constructor – no functions, no parameters, nothing, the function operator returns a 0.

Definition at line 120 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::CompoundFunction ( const CompoundFunction< T > &  other)
inline

Make this object a (deep) copy of other.

If parameters have been set without an intervening calculation, a consolidate() could be necessary on other first.

Bool   
)

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>
virtual Function<T>* casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::clone ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Return a copy of this object from the heap.

The caller is responsible for deleting the pointer.

Implements casacore::Function< T >.

Definition at line 158 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
virtual Function<typename FunctionTraits<T>::DiffType>* casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::cloneAD ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Reimplemented from casacore::Function< T >.

Definition at line 160 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
virtual Function<typename FunctionTraits<T>::BaseType>* casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::cloneNonAD ( ) const
inlinevirtual

Reimplemented from casacore::Function< T >.

Definition at line 162 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
CompoundFunction<T>& casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::consolidate ( )
inline

Consolidate the parameter settings.

This could be necessary if parameters have been set, and a copy constructor called. This is necessary before and after the setting of local parameters; i.e. the parameters of the individual functions.

Definition at line 153 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
virtual T casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::eval ( typename Function< T >::FunctionArg  x) const
virtual

Evaluate the function at x.

void casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::fromParam_p ( ) const
private
template<class T>
CompoundFunction<T>& casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::operator= ( const CompoundFunction< T > &  other)
inline

Make this object a (deep) copy of other.

Definition at line 137 of file CompoundFunction.h.

template<class T>
void casacore::CompoundFunction< T >::toParam_p ( )
private

Make the general block from local parameters.
