Method Detail

getClone

public CauchyMutationStrategy getClone()

Create a cloned copy of the current object and return it. In general the created copy will be a deep copy of the provided instance. As a result this operation an be quite expensive if used incorrectly.

Specified by:

getClone in interface Operator

Specified by:

getClone in interface Cloneable

Specified by:

getClone in class MutationStrategy

Returns:

An exact clone of the current object instance.

Object.clone()

mutate

public void mutate(List<? extends Entity> entity)

Perform the mutation operation on the provided list of offspring individuals.

Specified by:

mutate in class MutationStrategy

Parameters:

entity - The list of Entity instances to perform a mutation on.

getLocation

public double getLocation()

setLocation

public void setLocation(double location)

getScaleStrategy

public ControlParameter getScaleStrategy()

setScaleStrategy

public void setScaleStrategy(ControlParameter scaleStrategy)

performOperation

public void performOperation(TopologyHolder holder)

Perform the operator operation given the current TopologyHolder.

Parameters:

holder - The TopologyHolder representing the required Topology instances.
