Synopsis

Given N function objects, the class describes a linear combination of the form:

    f(x) = a(0)*f(0)(x) + a(1)*f(1)(x) + ... + a(N-1)*f(N-1)(x)

where a = {a(n)} are parameters. If the combi function is used in a functional fitting process (see LinearFit ) these parameters canm be solved for. In all aspects they behave as FunctionParam values.

Member functions are added with the addFunction() method.

Example

In the following example a second order polynomial is built from 3 separate polynomials.

    Polynomial<Double> constant(0); 
    Polynomial<Double> linear(1); 
    Polynomial<Double> square(2);
    
    constant.setCoefficient(0, 1.0);   // 1
    linear.setCoefficient(1, 1.0);     // x
    square[2] = 1.0;     // x^2
    
    CombiParam<Double> combination;
    
    // form function, e0 + e1*x + e2*x^2
    combination.addFunction(constant);
    combination.addFunction(linear);
    combination.addFunction(square);

Member Function Documentation

template<class T>
uInt casa::CombiParam< T >::addFunction ( const Function< T > &  newFunction)

Add a function.

All functions must have the same ndim() as the first one. Returns the (zero relative) number (i) of the function just added. The default initial parameter value (a(i)) is initialized to 1. The parameter mask is set True.

template<class T>
const Function<T>& casa::CombiParam< T >::function ( uInt  which) const [inline]

Return a reference to a specific Function in the combination.
