| Array< vec > & | _samples () | 
| access function | |
| const Array< vec > & | _samples () const | 
| access function | |
| ivec | resample (RESAMPLING_METHOD method=SYSTEMATIC) | 
| Function performs resampling, i.e. removal of low-weight samples and duplication of high-weight samples such that the new samples represent the same density. | |
| vec | sample () const | 
| inherited operation : NOT implemneted | |
| double | evallog (const vec &val) const | 
| inherited operation : NOT implemneted | |
| vec | mean () const | 
| return expected value | |
| vec | variance () const | 
| return expected variance (not covariance!) | |
| void | qbounds (vec &lb, vec &ub, double perc=0.95) const | 
| For this class, qbounds are minimum and maximum value of the population! | |
| Constructors | |
| eEmp () | |
| eEmp (const eEmp &e) | |
| Constructors | |
| Construction of each epdf should support two types of constructors:  
 
 set_parameters(). This way references can be initialized in constructors. | |
| void | set_parameters (int dim0) | 
| Matematical Operations | |
| virtual mat | sample_m (int N) const | 
| Returns N samples,  from density  . | |
| virtual vec | evallog_m (const mat &Val) const | 
| Compute log-probability of multiple values argument val. | |
| virtual mpdf * | condition (const RV &rv) const | 
| Return conditional density on the given RV, the remaining rvs will be in conditioning. | |
| virtual epdf * | marginal (const RV &rv) const | 
| Return marginal density on the given RV, the remainig rvs are intergrated out. | |
| Connection to other classes | |
| Description of the random quantity via attribute  rvis optional. For operations such as samplingrvdoes not need to be set. However, formarginalizationandconditioningrvhas to be set. NB: | |
| void | set_rv (const RV &rv0) | 
| Name its rv. | |
| bool | isnamed () const | 
| True if rv is assigned. | |
| const RV & | _rv () const | 
| Return name (fails when isnamed is false). | |
| Access to attributes | |
| int | dimension () const | 
| Size of the random variable. | |
| Protected Attributes | |
