Package de.uka.ipd.sdq.statistics.estimation

package de.uka.ipd.sdq.statistics.estimation

This package contains various statistical estimators. There are point estimators and confidence estimators, represented by the interfaces IPointEstimator and IConfidenceEstimator. An estimator implements one or both of them.

How to implement a new estimator?

If your implementation is intended to provide solely point estimation or confidence estimation implement only the corresponding interface. Otherwise both interfaces have to be implemented. It is recommended to create a single class implementing both interfaces in contrast to create one class per interface.
