#define BUCKETTABLESIZE   1024

define the size of the table which maps normalized samples to histogram buckets. Also define the number of standard deviations in a normal distribution which are considered to be significant. The mapping table will be defined in such a way that it covers the specified number of standard deviations on either side of the mean. BUCKETTABLESIZE should always be even.

#define MINVARIANCE   0.0004

define the variance which will be used as a minimum variance for any dimension of any feature. Since most features are calculated from numbers with a precision no better than 1 in 128, the variance should never be less than the square of this number for parameters whose range is 1.

arg2	chi-squared struct that is the search key

Returns

TRUE if ChiStruct's Alpha matches SearchKey's Alpha

FLOAT64 ChiArea	(	CHISTRUCT *	ChiParams,
		FLOAT64	x
	)

This routine computes the area under a chi density curve from 0 to x, minus the desired area under the curve. The number of degrees of freedom of the chi curve is specified in the ChiParams structure. The desired area is also specified in the ChiParams structure as Alpha ( or 1 minus the desired area ). This routine is intended to be passed to the Solve() function to find the value of chi-squared which will yield a desired area under the right tail of the chi density curve. The function will only work for even degrees of freedom. The equations are based on integrating the chi density curve in parts to obtain a series that can be used to compute the area under the curve.

Parameters

ChiParams	contains degrees of freedom and alpha
x	value of chi-squared to evaluate

Returns

Error between actual and desired area under the chi curve.

Exceptions: none

LIST ClusterSamples	(	CLUSTERER *	Clusterer,
		CLUSTERCONFIG *	Config
	)

This routine first checks to see if the samples in this clusterer have already been clustered before; if so, it does not bother to recreate the cluster tree. It simply recomputes the prototypes based on the new Config info.

If the samples have not been clustered before, the samples in the KD tree are formed into a cluster tree and then the prototypes are computed from the cluster tree.

In either case this routine returns a pointer to a list of prototypes that best represent the samples given the constraints specified in Config.

Parameters

Clusterer	data struct containing samples to be clustered
Config	parameters which control clustering process

Returns

Pointer to a list of prototypes

FLOAT64 ComputeChiSquared	(	uinT16	DegreesOfFreedom,
		FLOAT64	Alpha
	)

This routine computes the chi-squared value which will leave a cumulative probability of Alpha in the right tail of a chi-squared distribution with the specified number of degrees of freedom. Alpha must be between 0 and 1. DegreesOfFreedom must be even. The routine maintains an array of lists. Each list corresponds to a different number of degrees of freedom. Each entry in the list corresponds to a different alpha value and its corresponding chi-squared value. Therefore, once a particular chi-squared value is computed, it is stored in the list and never needs to be computed again.

Parameters

DegreesOfFreedom	determines shape of distribution
Alpha	probability of right tail

Returns

Desired chi-squared value

Exceptions: none

STATISTICS * ComputeStatistics	(	inT16	N,
		PARAM_DESC	ParamDesc[],

	)

This routine searches the cluster tree for all leaf nodes which are samples in the specified cluster. It computes a full covariance matrix for these samples as well as keeping track of the ranges (min and max) for each dimension. A special data structure is allocated to return this information to the caller. An incremental algorithm for computing statistics is not used because it will not work with circular dimensions.

Parameters

N	number of dimensions
ParamDesc	array of dimension descriptions
Cluster	cluster whose stats are to be computed

Returns

Pointer to new data structure containing statistics

void CreateClusterTree

(

CLUSTERER *

Clusterer

)

This routine performs a bottoms-up clustering on the samples held in the kd-tree of the Clusterer data structure. The result is a cluster tree. Each node in the tree represents a cluster which conceptually contains a subset of the samples. More precisely, the cluster contains all of the samples which are contained in its two sub-clusters. The leaves of the tree are the individual samples themselves; they have no sub-clusters. The root node of the tree conceptually contains all of the samples.

Parameters

Clusterer

data structure holdings samples to be clustered

Returns

None (the Clusterer data structure is changed)

The result is always rounded up to the next even number so that the value of chi-squared can be computed more easily. This will cause the value of chi-squared to be higher than the optimum value, resulting in the chi-square test being more lenient than optimum.

Parameters

Distribution	distribution being tested for
HistogramBuckets	number of buckets in chi-square test

Returns

The number of degrees of freedom for a chi-square test

Exceptions: none

		CLUSTER *	Cluster,
		uinT16	Dim,
		PARAM_DESC *	ParamDesc,
		FLOAT32	Mean,
		FLOAT32	StdDev
	)

This routine counts the number of cluster samples which fall within the various histogram buckets in Buckets. Only one dimension of each sample is examined. The exact meaning of the Mean and StdDev parameters depends on the distribution which is being analyzed (this info is in the Buckets data structure). For normal distributions, Mean and StdDev have the expected meanings. For uniform and random distributions the Mean is the center point of the range and the StdDev is 1/2 the range. A dimension with zero standard deviation cannot be statistically analyzed. In this case, a pseudo-analysis is used.

Parameters

Buckets	histogram buckets to count samples
Cluster	cluster whose samples are being analyzed
Dim	dimension of samples which is being analyzed
ParamDesc	description of the dimension
Mean	"mean" of the distribution
StdDev	"standard deviation" of the distribution

Returns

None (the Buckets data structure is filled in)

CLUSTER * FindNearestNeighbor	(	KDTREE *	Tree,
		CLUSTER *	Cluster,
		FLOAT32 *	Distance
	)

This routine searches the specified kd-tree for the nearest neighbor of the specified cluster. It actually uses the kd routines to find the 2 nearest neighbors since one of them will be the original cluster. A pointer to the nearest neighbor is returned, if it can be found, otherwise NULL is returned. The distance between the 2 nodes is placed in the specified variable.

Parameters

Tree	kd-tree to search in for nearest neighbor
Cluster	cluster whose nearest neighbor is to be found
Distance	ptr to variable to report distance found

Returns

Pointer to the nearest neighbor of Cluster, or NULL

	)

This routine returns TRUE if the specified covariance matrix indicates that all N dimensions are independent of one another. One dimension is judged to be independent of another when the magnitude of the corresponding correlation coefficient is less than the specified Independence factor. The correlation coefficient is calculated as: (see Duda and Hart, pg. 247) coeff[ij] = stddev[ij] / sqrt (stddev[ii] * stddev[jj]) The covariance matrix is assumed to be symmetric (which should always be true).

Parameters

ParamDesc	descriptions of each feature space dimension
N	number of dimensions
CoVariance	ptr to a covariance matrix
Independence	max off-diagonal correlation coefficient

Returns

TRUE if dimensions are independent, FALSE otherwise

BUCKETS * MakeBuckets	(	DISTRIBUTION	Distribution,
		uinT32	SampleCount,
		FLOAT64	Confidence
	)

This routine creates a histogram data structure which can be used by other routines to place samples into histogram buckets, and then apply a goodness of fit test to the histogram data to determine if the samples belong to the specified probability distribution. The buckets are allocated in such a way that the expected frequency of samples in each bucket is approximately the same. In order to make this possible, a mapping table is computed which maps "normalized" samples into the appropriate bucket.

Parameters

Distribution	type of probability distribution to test for
SampleCount	number of samples that are available
Confidence	probability of a Type I error

Returns

Pointer to new histogram data structure

PROTOTYPE * MakeDegenerateProto	(	uinT16	N,
		CLUSTER *	Cluster,
		STATISTICS *	Statistics,
		PROTOSTYLE	Style,
		inT32	MinSamples
	)

This routine checks for clusters which are degenerate and therefore cannot be analyzed in a statistically valid way. A cluster is defined as degenerate if it does not have at least MINSAMPLESNEEDED samples in it. If the cluster is found to be degenerate, a prototype of the specified style is generated and marked as insignificant. A cluster is also degenerate if it does not have at least MinSamples samples in it.

If the cluster is not degenerate, NULL is returned.

Parameters

N	number of dimensions
Cluster	cluster being analyzed
Statistics	statistical info about cluster
Style	type of prototype to be generated
MinSamples	minimum number of samples in a cluster

Returns

Pointer to degenerate prototype or NULL.

PROTOTYPE * MakePrototype	(	CLUSTERER *	Clusterer,
		CLUSTERCONFIG *	Config,
		CLUSTER *	Cluster
	)

This routine attempts to create a prototype from the specified cluster that conforms to the distribution specified in Config. If there are too few samples in the cluster to perform a statistical analysis, then a prototype is generated but labelled as insignificant. If the dimensions of the cluster are not independent, no prototype is generated and NULL is returned. If a prototype can be found that matches the desired distribution then a pointer to it is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.

Parameters

Clusterer	data structure holding cluster tree
Config	parameters used to control prototype generation
Cluster	cluster to be made into a prototype

Returns

Pointer to new prototype or NULL

BOOL8 MultipleCharSamples	(	CLUSTERER *	Clusterer,
		CLUSTER *	Cluster,
		FLOAT32	MaxIllegal
	)

This routine looks at all samples in the specified cluster. It computes a running estimate of the percentage of the charaters which have more than 1 sample in the cluster. When this percentage exceeds MaxIllegal, TRUE is returned. Otherwise FALSE is returned. The CharID fields must contain integers which identify the training characters which were used to generate the sample. One integer is used for each sample. The NumChar field in the Clusterer must contain the number of characters in the training set. All CharID fields must be between 0 and NumChar-1. The main function of this routine is to help identify clusters which need to be split further, i.e. if numerous training characters have 2 or more features which are contained in the same cluster, then the cluster should be split.

Parameters

Clusterer	data structure holding cluster tree
Cluster	cluster containing samples to be tested
MaxIllegal	max percentage of samples allowed to have more than 1 feature in the cluster

Returns

TRUE if the cluster should be split, FALSE otherwise.

Note

Exceptions: none

CLUSTER* NextSample

(

LIST *

SearchState

)

This routine is used to find all of the samples which belong to a cluster. It starts by removing the top cluster on the cluster list (SearchState). If this cluster is a leaf it is returned. Otherwise, the right subcluster is pushed on the list and we continue the search in the left subcluster. This continues until a leaf is found. If all samples have been found, NULL is returned. InitSampleSearch() must be called before NextSample() to initialize the search.

Parameters

SearchState

ptr to list containing clusters to be searched

Returns

Pointer to the next leaf cluster (sample) or NULL.

This routine computes the optimum number of histogram buckets that should be used in a chi-squared goodness of fit test for the specified number of samples. The optimum number is computed based on Table 4.1 on pg. 147 of "Measurement and Analysis of Random Data" by Bendat & Piersol. Linear interpolation is used to interpolate between table values. The table is intended for a 0.05 level of significance (alpha). This routine assumes that it is equally valid for other alpha's, which may not be true.

Parameters

uinT16 UniformBucket	(	PARAM_DESC *	ParamDesc,
		FLOAT32	x,
		FLOAT32	Mean,
		FLOAT32	StdDev
	)

This routine determines which bucket x falls into in the discrete uniform distribution defined by BUCKETTABLESIZE. x values which exceed the range of the discrete distribution are clipped.

Parameters

ParamDesc	used to identify circular dimensions
x	value to be normalized
Mean	center of range of uniform distribution
StdDev	1/2 the range of the uniform distribution

Returns

Bucket number into which x falls
