Interface IntegerVectorGenerator<T extends IntegerVector>

All Superinterfaces:

Generator<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:

RandomIndexVectorGenerator

public interface IntegerVectorGenerator<T extends IntegerVector>
extends Generator<T>

An interface for classes which will maintain and generate random IntegerVectors. The main purpose of this of this class is to allow any algorithm that makes use of some sort of random vector, such as Random Indexing, can easily swap out the type of indexing used for experimentation purposes.
