public interface Reduction

extends java.io.Serializable

The reduction (transformation) of multidimensional space. A point in user's coordinates is transformed in some way (usually with affine transform). The dimensions of initial and reduced spaces may differ (the reduced dimension may be less than the initial one).

Method Summary

int	initialDimension() Returns the dimension of initial space of independent varibles.
int	reducedDimension() Returns the dimension of reduced space of independent varibles.
void	reducePoint(RealPointer x, RealPointer y) Transforms point coordinates from initial to reduced.

Method Detail

initialDimension

public int initialDimension()

Returns the dimension of initial space of independent varibles.

reducedDimension

public int reducedDimension()

Returns the dimension of reduced space of independent varibles.

reducePoint

public void reducePoint(RealPointer x,
                        RealPointer y)

Transforms point coordinates from initial to reduced.

Parameters:

x - the point in initial coordinates

y - the point in reduced coordinates
