Class HermiteRuleFactory

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.math4.analysis.integration.gauss.BaseRuleFactory<java.lang.Double>
org.apache.commons.math4.analysis.integration.gauss.HermiteRuleFactory
public class HermiteRuleFactory
extends BaseRuleFactory<java.lang.Double>
Factory that creates a Gauss-type quadrature rule using Hermite polynomials of the first kind. Such a quadrature rule allows the calculation of improper integrals of a function

\(f(x) e^{-x^2}\)

Recurrence relation and weights computation follow Abramowitz and Stegun, 1964.

The coefficients of the standard Hermite polynomials grow very rapidly. In order to avoid overflows, each Hermite polynomial is normalized with respect to the underlying scalar product. The initial interval for the application of the bisection method is based on the roots of the previous Hermite polynomial (interlacing). Upper and lower bounds of these roots are provided by
