getGuess

public Distribution getGuess(DataSet data)

This method allows one to obtain a distribution that represents a reasonable "guess" at the range of values that would work for this parameter.

Providing a getGuess is not required, and returns null if guessing is not supported.

Parameters:

data - the data with which we want a reasonable guess for this parameter

Returns:

a distribution that represents a reasonable guess of a good value for this parameter given the input data
