Class UncertainPreferenceContainer

java.lang.Object

genius.core.uncertainty.UncertainPreferenceContainer

public class UncertainPreferenceContainer
extends java.lang.Object

Author:

Dimitrios Tsimpoukis, April 2018 MAJOR Class for the introduction of uncertainty. It is used only in the core and keeps track of both the real preferences of the user as well as the perception of the agent. The preference profile that is given to the agents can be a "distorted utility space" in the cases that uncertainty is included in the form of a perturbation to the real utilities (see AdditiveUtilitySpaceWithPerturbation}) or a flattened Utility Space (see FlattenedUtilitySpace), OR in the form of a Pairwise Comparison User Model (see PairwiseComparisonUserModel).

Method Detail

createOutcomeComparisonUserModel

public void createOutcomeComparisonUserModel(int amount,
                                             double error)
