triggers_callback()
is_linear() X-Ref |
Are this target calculations linear values? return: bool |
is_a_class($class) X-Ref |
Is the provided class one of this target valid classes? param: mixed $class return: bool |
get_display_value($value, $ignoredsubtype = false) X-Ref |
get_display_value param: float $value param: string $ignoredsubtype return: string |
get_calculation_outcome($value, $ignoredsubtype = false) X-Ref |
get_calculation_outcome param: float $value param: string $ignoredsubtype return: int |
get_classes() X-Ref |
Returns all the possible values the target calculation can return. Only useful for targets using discrete values, must be overwriten if it is the case. return: array |
classes_description() X-Ref |
Returns descriptions for each of the values the target calculation can return. The array indexes should match self::get_classes indexes. return: array |
ignored_predicted_classes() X-Ref |
Returns the predicted classes that will be ignored. Better be keen to add more than less classes here, the callback is always able to discard some classes. As an example a target with classes 'grade 0-3', 'grade 3-6', 'grade 6-8' and 'grade 8-10' is interested in flagging both 'grade 6-8' and 'grade 8-10' as ignored. On the other hand, a target like dropout risk with classes 'yes', 'no' may just be interested in 'yes'. return: array List of values that will be ignored (array keys are ignored). |
triggers_callback($predictedvalue, $predictionscore) X-Ref |
This method determines if a prediction is interesing for the model or not. This method internally calls ignored_predicted_classes to skip classes flagged by the target as not important for users. param: mixed $predictedvalue param: float $predictionscore return: bool |
