calculate

public static AutoInsightOutput calculate(State target,
                                          List<Variable> testVariables,
                                          InferenceFactory factory)
                                   throws InconsistentEvidenceException

Uses comparison queries to automatically derive insight about a target variable from a trained network.

Parameters:

target - The variable state to derive insight about.

testVariables - The variables that might impact the target.

factory - A factory which can create inference engines. e.g. RelevanceTreeInferenceFactory.

Returns:

The automatically derived insight.

Throws:

InconsistentEvidenceException
