All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class SparsitySpecification

extends Enum

The enumeration class SparsitySpecification indicates whether the attribute representation is dense or sparse. By default, all the attributes are dense. I.e. all the attribute values are repeated as many times as they are present. In sparse representation, the most common value for an attribute is eliminated ( not represented), only the exception values are present. When an attribute is defined to be sparse, its most common value is missing from the dataset. The semantics of the value are as follows:

• dense - Specifies that attribute values are repeated as many times as they are present.
• sparse - Specifies that the most common value for an attribute is eliminated, and only the exception values are present.
