Hi,
I just tested this on an ubuntu 10.04 system. Steps I followed are:
- installed Statistics::Burst perl module using CPAN ("perl -MCPAN -e
shell", then within the shell "install Statistics::Burst"). this will
obviously differ depending on operating system etc.
- ran the following test perl script:
---------------------
use Data::Dumper;
use Statistics::Burst;
my $burstObj=Statistics::Burst::new();
$burstObj->generateStates(3,.111,2);
$burstObj->gamma(.5);
#my @gap_space = (10, 5, 5);
#$burstObj->setData(\@gap_space);
$burstObj->setData([9,9,10,10,14,5,2,2,2,2,7,5]);
$burstObj->process();
$statesUsed=$burstObj->getStatesUsed();
print Dumper($statesUsed)."\n";
-------------------
I had trouble with the example code provided by the module author. The
script would crash from trying to take a log of zero. I then found that
someone else had the same trouble (
http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1339387&page=141)
and so I used a different example dataset. See also the discussion of
the 'feature' that you can apparently only model 12 intervals.
I wasn't able to get output that I can interpret but then again I didn't
look at the Kleinberg paper. By default, it doesn't seem to print
output to the screen so I guess you've got to look at an object that it
creates.
Hope this helps.
