在while循环之后:为什么刚刚写入的数组为空？

Question

我们目前正在尝试在java中实现kmeans算法.我们的问题是:

我们正在使用该getData()方法用文件中的数据填充二维数组.在方法的while循环中,getData()我们有一个println(),在return命令之前我们有另一个.

第一个println()给出了我们从文件中获得的正确值.

第二个println()只是为我们0.0提供了该数组中的每个字段,除了arrayList[299][0].

这是为什么？

class KMeans {

    // Number of clusters
    int numberOfClusters = 4;
    // Starting point for each cluster (these values should be better than completely random values for our given data set)
    static double[] a = new double[]{-1.5, 2.0};
    static double[] b = new double[]{-1.5, 7.0};
    static double[] c = new double[]{1.5, 7.0};
    static double[] d = new double[]{1.5, 2.0};
    static double[][] pointArray;

    // This calculates the distance between a given point from the data set and a centroid
    public static double calculateDistance(double[] point, double[] centroid) {
        // get difference for X coordinates
        double maxX = Math.max(point[0], centroid[0]);
        double minX = Math.min(point[0], centroid[0]);
        double differenceX = maxX - minX;
        double differenceXSquared = Math.pow(differenceX, 2);

        // get difference for Y coordinates
        double maxY = Math.max(point[1], centroid[1]);
        double minY = Math.min(point[1], centroid[1]);
        double differenceY = maxY - minY;
        double differenceYSquared = Math.pow(differenceY, 2);

        // The whole thing is nothing other than pythagoras
        double zSquared = differenceXSquared + differenceYSquared;
        double z = Math.sqrt(zSquared);
        return z;
    }

    // This calculates which of the given distances is the lowest
    public static double[] nearestCluster(double e, double f, double g, double h) {
        double x = Math.min(e, f);
        double y = Math.min(x, g);
        double z = Math.min(y, h);

        if (z == e) {
            return a;
        }
        if (z == f) {
            return b;
        }
        if (z == g) {
            return c;
        } else {
            return d;
        }
    }

    // Read the file 
    public static double[][] getData() {
        try (BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("/home/john/Downloads/data.txt"))) {
            String line;
            int i = 1;
            int j = 0;
            while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
                // Create the array in which we store each value
                pointArray = new double[i][4];
                //Splits each line a the space and writes it to an array
                String[] split = line.split("\\s+");

                // Cast the strings to double and write them to our pointArray         
                pointArray[j][0] = Double.parseDouble(split[0]);
                pointArray[j][1] = Double.parseDouble(split[1]);
                System.out.println(pointArray[0][0]);
                i++;
                j++;
            }
        } catch (IOException e) {
        }
        System.out.println(pointArray[0][0]);        
        return pointArray;
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
        pointArray = getData();
        for (double[] x : pointArray) {
            double distanceA = calculateDistance(x, a);
            double distanceB = calculateDistance(x, b);
            double distanceC = calculateDistance(x, c);
            double distanceD = calculateDistance(x, d);

            // Assigns the closest cluster to each point (not too efficent because we call the function twice, but it works)
            x[2] = nearestCluster(distanceA, distanceB, distanceC, distanceD)[0];
            x[3] = nearestCluster(distanceA, distanceB, distanceC, distanceD)[1];
        }
    }
}

这条线

pointArray = new double[i][4];

每次循环时重新初始化数组.实际上,除了您读取的最后一行之外,您将丢弃所有值.

相反,使用a ArrayList来保存每一行.在while循环之前设置它像这样:

List<Double[]> pointList = new ArrayList<>();

然后你可以在每一行添加它,如下所示:

Double[] points = new Double[4];
// ...
points[0] = Double.parseDouble(split[0]);
// etc.
pointList.add(points);

然后返回pointList或将其转换为数组以便返回.
