multidim.models.CDER.gausscoords

CDER.gausscoords(parsimonious=True)[source]

This is the Gaussian-building heart of the CDER algorithm. Look to elders, and look to successor. How does entropy change? If the entropy is a local minimum, then build a Gaussian coordinate with the dominant label. This populates self.gaussians for a CDER object.

Generally, a user will never call this. It is called by fit()

Parameters:
parsimonious: bool

If True, then ignore unlikely regions quickly, to minimize the number of Gaussian coordinates. If False, then check all levels of the CoverTree. (default: True)
