mkHumanComparanda

public static Comparandum[][] mkHumanComparanda(MwByHuman.MwSeries[] res, MwByHuman.PrecMode precMode, boolean useMDagger)

Creates a list of comparanda for a number of rule sets. The Comparandum for a rule set (or, more generally, "an experience") is based on the on human performance data for this rule set.

Parameters:

res - A table of "series" entries, each of which describes the summary of a series, i.e. the performance of a human player on a rule set.

precMode - This controls how "experiences" are grouped into "same" or "different" ones (depending on the preceding rule sets)

Returns:

{learnedOnes[], nonLearnedOnes[]}
