probabilitiesByEnumeration(DiscreteObservationFunction of,
State state,
Action action)
A helper method for easily implementing the
DiscreteObservationFunction.probabilities(State, Action) method
that computes observation probability distribution by enumerating all possible observations (as defined by the DiscreteObservationFunction.allObservations() method)
and assigning their probability according to the ObservationFunction.probability(State, State, Action)
method. |
static State |
sampleByEnumeration(DiscreteObservationFunction of,
State state,
Action action)
A helper method for easily implementing the
ObservationFunction.sample(State, Action) method that
samples an observation by first getting all non-zero probability observations, as returned by the DiscreteObservationFunction.probabilities(State, Action)
method, and then sampling from the enumerated distribution. |

DiscreteObservationFunction.probabilities(State, Action) method
that computes observation probability distribution by enumerating all possible observations (as defined by the DiscreteObservationFunction.allObservations() method)
and assigning their probability according to the ObservationFunction.probability(State, State, Action)
method. Note that because this method requires enumerating all observations, it may be more computationally efficient to instead directly implement domain specific code

samples an observation by first getting all non-zero probability observations, as returned by the DiscreteObservationFunction.probabilities(State, Action)
method, and then sampling from the enumerated distribution. Note that enumerating all observation probabilities may be computationally
