Detailed Description

Normal random variate generator.

This generation method was initially developed and implemented by Martin Styner, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and his colleagues.

You should run Initialize() function before call GetNormalVariate() function.

The followings are original comments.

Revision date 31 May 1996 This is a revised version of the algorithm described in

ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, Vol 22, No 1 March 1996, pp 119-127.

It is somewhat faster, and uses less memory as the vector of variates is updated in-situ. It has passed all the same statistical tests as described in the TOMS article, plus others. Seems OK so far.

   Works well with total pool of 1024 variates, and does not need
   two vectors of this size, so does less damage to cache.
           Has been tested for frequency of tail values which
   should occur once in a million. OK. Other usual tests OK.
   About 13 % faster than TOMS version.

   FAST GENERATOR OF PSEUDO-RANDOM UNIT NORMAL VARIATES

           C.S.Wallace, Monash University, 1994

To use this code, files needing to call the generator should include:

* #include "FastNorm.h"
*

and be linked with the maths library (-lm) FastNorm.h contains declaration of the initialization routine 'initnorm()', definition of a macro 'FastGauss' used to generate variates, and three variables used in the macro. Read below for calling conventions.

THIS CODE ASSUMES TWO'S-COMPLEMENT 32-BIT INTEGER ARITHMATIC. IT ALSO ASSUMES THE 'C' COMPILER COMPILES THE LEFT-SHIFT OPERATOR "<<" AS A LOGICAL SHIFT, DISCARDING THE SIGN DIGIT AND SHIFTING IN ZEROS ON THE RIGHT, SO " X << 1" IS EQUIVALENT TO " X+X ". IT ALSO ASSUMES THE RIGHT-SHIFT OPERATOR ">>" IS SIGN-PRESERVING, SO ( -2 >> 1) = -1, ( -1>>1) = -1.

      A fast generator of pseudo-random variates from the unit Normal

distribution. It keeps a pool of about 1000 variates, and generates new ones by picking 4 from the pool, rotating the 4-vector with these as its components, and replacing the old variates with the components of the rotated vector.

      The program should initialize the generator by calling

initnorm(seed) with seed a int integer seed value. Different seed values will give different sequences of Normals. Then, wherever the program needs a new Normal variate, it should use the macro FastGauss, e.g. in statements like: x = FastGauss; (Sets x to a random Normal value)

Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class.

Reimplemented from itk::Object.
