CStreamingVwFeatures Class Reference

Detailed Description

This class implements streaming features for use with VW.

Each example is stored in a VwExample object, which also contains label and other information. Features are hashed and are supposed to be used with a weight vector of preallocated dimensions.

Member Function Documentation

void add_preprocessor ( CPreprocessor p)
virtualinherited

add preprocessor

Parameters
ppreprocessor to set

Definition at line 85 of file Features.cpp.

void add_subset ( SGVector< index_t subset)
virtualinherited

Adds a subset of indices on top of the current subsets (possibly subset of subset). Every call causes a new active index vector to be stored. Added subsets can be removed one-by-one. If this is not needed, add_subset_in_place() should be used (does not store intermediate index vectors)

Calls subset_changed_post() afterwards

Parameters
subsetsubset of indices to add

Reimplemented in CCombinedFeatures.

Definition at line 310 of file Features.cpp.

void add_subset_in_place ( SGVector< index_t subset)
virtualinherited

Sets/changes latest added subset. This allows to add multiple subsets with in-place memory requirements. They cannot be removed one-by-one afterwards, only the latest active can. If this is needed, use add_subset(). If no subset is active, this just adds.

Calls subset_changed_post() afterwards

Parameters
subsetsubset of indices to replace the latest one with.

Definition at line 316 of file Features.cpp.
