Detailed Description

Interface specifies the requiremnts of how user defined evidence types must behave as a feature in a vector.

Note that the instanciated derived types of this class, must correspond to an element in the Prediction class heirarchy. In other words types of Prediction objects map to types of evaluation feature objects (there is not an explicit relationship established in the code)

virtual void EvidenceType::setVals (  const EvidenceType &  et  )  [inline, virtual]

set vals Parameters: -  const EvidenceType& specifies values

virtual void EvidenceType::update (  const Prediction *  pred, int  end5, int  end3, dsu::Strand_t  )  [pure virtual]

takes a Prediction about a given region of the data where that Prediction correspons to a particular evidence type, and updates it's values in the feature vector Parameters: end5  = 5' end of region looking at end3  = 3' end of region looking at
