ComposedLogPrior
(*priors)[source]¶ N-dimensional
LogPrior
composed of one or more other \(N_i\)- dimensional LogPriors, such that \(\sum _i N_i = N\). The evaluation of the composed log-prior assumes the input log-priors are all independent from each other.For example, a composed log prior
p = pints.ComposedLogPrior(log_prior1, log_prior2, log_prior3)
,where
log_prior1
,log_prior2
, andlog_prior3
each have dimension 1, 2 and 1, will have dimension 4.The dimensionality of the individual priors does not have to be the same, i.e. \(N_i\neq N_j\) is allowed.
The input parameters of the
ComposedLogPrior
have to be ordered in the same way as the individual priors. In the above example the prior may be evaluated byp(x)
, where:x = [parameter1_log_prior1, parameter1_log_prior2, parameter2_log_prior2, parameter1_log_prior3]

pseudo_cdf

\[u_2 = \int_{-\infty}^{\theta_2} \pi_2(\theta_2|\theta_1)d\theta_2\]So that we return a vector of cdfs (u_1,u_2,…,u_d). Note that, this function is mainly to facilitate Multinest sampling since the distribution (u_1,u_2,…,u_d) is uniform within the unit cube.

\[u_2 = \int_{-\infty}^{\theta_2} \pi_2(\theta_2|\theta_1)d\theta_2\]So that we return a vector of icdfs (theta_1,theta_2,…,theta_d) Note that, this function is mainly to facilitate Multinest sampling since the distribution (u_1,u_2,…,u_d) is uniform within the unit cube.

TruncatedGaussianLogPrior

The parameters are the mean
mean
and standard deviationsd
, as in the Gaussian distribution, as well as a lower bounda
and an upper boundb
.The pdf of the truncated Gaussian distribution is given by
\[f(x|\mu, \sigma, a, b) = \frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}} \exp \left(-\frac{(x-\mu)^2}{2\sigma^2}\right) \frac{1} {\Phi((b-\mu) / \sigma) - \Phi((a-\mu) / \sigma)}\]for \(x \in [a, b]\), where \(\mu\) indicates the mean and \(\sigma\) indicates the standard deviation, and \(\Phi\) is the standard normal CDF.

p = pints.TruncatedGaussianLogPrior(0, 1, -2, 3)
