Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N>	deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(BehaviouralProfile<M,N> profile) Returns the causal behavioural profile for the given behavioural profile.
CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N>	deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(M model) Returns the causal behavioural profile for all entities of the given model.
CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N>	deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(M model, Collection<N> entities) Returns the causal behavioural profile for the given collection of entities of the model.

Method Detail

deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile

CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N> deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(M model)

Returns the causal behavioural profile for all entities of the given model. Whether the profile is computed for all entities or only a subset of entities depends on the actual implementation of the creator.

Parameters:

model, - a model

Returns:

the causal behavioural profile of the model

deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile

CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N> deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(M model,
                                                           Collection<N> entities)

Returns the causal behavioural profile for the given collection of entities of the model. Whether this collection must comprise solely entities of a certain type depends on the implementation of the creator.

Parameters:

model, - a model

collection - of entities of the model

Returns:

the causal behavioural profile of the model

deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile

CausalBehaviouralProfile<M,N> deriveCausalBehaviouralProfile(BehaviouralProfile<M,N> profile)

Returns the causal behavioural profile for the given behavioural profile. This method may be used if the behavioural profile has been computed already and the respective creator is used to add only the co-occurrence relation to yield the causal behavioural profile.

Parameters:

profile - the behavioural profile

Returns:

the causal behavioural profile for the model to which the given behavioural profile belongs
