Entropy

Name

Entropy -- Computes entropy via a MessageProbe.

Description

Entropy objects read probabilities (via a MessageProbe) from a collection of objects and calculate the entropy of the underlying distribution.

Protocols adopted by Entropy

MessageProbe CREATABLE

Methods

Phase: Creating

- setCollection: aCollection
The setCollection method sets the collection of objects that will be probed.

Phase: Using

- (double)getEntropy
The getEntropy method returns the calculated Entropy. The entropy value is read out of the object, not computed everytime it is requested.
- (void)update
The update method polls the collection and updates the entropy. This method should be scheduled prior to collecting the data using getEntropy.
