Detailed Description

The standard Laplacian kernel.

Given two vectors $ x $ , $ y $ , and a bandwidth $\mu$ (set in the constructor),

$K(x, y) = \exp(-\frac{|| x - y ||}{\mu}).$

The implementation is all in the header file because it is so simple.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::LaplacianKernel ( )

inline

Default constructor; sets bandwidth to 1.0.

Definition at line 36 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::LaplacianKernel ( double bandwidth )

inline

Construct the Laplacian kernel with a custom bandwidth.

Parameters

bandwidth The bandwidth of the kernel ( $\mu$ ).

Definition at line 44 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

double mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::Bandwidth ( ) const

inline

Get the bandwidth.

Definition at line 95 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

References bandwidth.

double& mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::Bandwidth ( )

inline

Modify the bandwidth.

Definition at line 97 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

References bandwidth.

template<typename VecTypeA , typename VecTypeB >

double mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::Evaluate	(	const VecTypeA &	a,
		const VecTypeB &	b
	)		const

inline

Evaluation of the Laplacian kernel.

This could be generalized to use any distance metric, not the Euclidean distance, but for now, the Euclidean distance is used.

Template Parameters

VecTypeA	Type of first vector (likely arma::vec or arma::sp_vec).
VecTypeB	Type of second vector (arma::vec / arma::sp_vec).

Parameters

a	First vector.
b	Second vector.

Returns: K(a, b) using the bandwidth ( $\mu$ ) specified in the constructor.

Definition at line 61 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

double mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::Evaluate ( const double t ) const

inline

Evaluation of the Laplacian kernel given the distance between two points.

Parameters

t	The distance between the two points the kernel should be evaluated on.

Returns: K(t) using the bandwidth ( $\mu$ ) specified in the constructor.

Definition at line 75 of file laplacian_kernel.hpp.

References bandwidth.

double mlpack::kernel::LaplacianKernel::Gradient ( const double t ) const

inline

Evaluation of the gradient of the Laplacian kernel given the distance between two points.

Parameters

t	The distance between the two points the kernel should be evaluated on.

Returns: K(t) using the bandwidth ( $\mu$ ) specified in the constructor.

	)

inline

Serialize the kernel.
