PythonFunction

class PythonFunction(*args)

Override Function from Python.

Parameters
inputDimpositive int

Dimension of the input vector

outputDimpositive int

Dimension of the output vector

funca callable python object, optional

Called when evaluated on a single point. Default is None.

func_samplea callable python object, optional

Called when evaluated on multiple points at once. Default is None.

gradienta callable python objects, optional

Returns the gradient as a 2-d sequence of float. Default is None (uses finite-difference).

hessiana callable python object, optional

Returns the hessian as a 3-d sequence of float. Default is None (uses finite-difference).

n_cpusinteger

Number of cpus on which func should be distributed using multiprocessing. If -1, it uses all the cpus available. If 1, it does nothing. Default is None.

copybool, optional

If True, input sample is converted into a Python 2-d sequence before calling func_sample. Otherwise, it is passed directy to func_sample. Default is False.

functionLinearitybool, optional

Indicates if the function is linear. Default is False.

variablesLinearitylist of bool, optional

Indicates for each input variable if the function is linear with regard to this variable. Default is [False]*inputDim

Notes

You must provide at least func or func_sample arguments. For efficiency reasons, these functions do not receive a Point or Sample as arguments, but a proxy object which gives access to internal object data. This object supports indexing, but nothing more. It must be wrapped into another object, for instance Point in func and Sample in func_sample, or in a Numpy array, for vectorized operations.

Note that if PythonFunction is distributed (n_cpus > 1), the traceback of a raised exception by a func call is lost due to the way multiprocessing dispatches and handles func calls. This can be solved by temporarily deactivating n_cpus during the development of the wrapper or by manually handling the distribution of the wrapper with external libraries like joblib that keep track of a raised exception and shows the traceback to the user.

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> def a_exec(X):
...     Y = [3.0 * X[0] - X[1]]
...     return Y
>>> def a_grad(X):
...     dY = [[3.0], [-1.0]]
...     return dY
>>> f = ot.PythonFunction(2, 1, a_exec, gradient=a_grad)
>>> X = [100.0, 100.0]
>>> Y = f(X)
>>> print(Y)
[200]
>>> dY = f.gradient(X)
>>> print(dY)
[[  3 ]
 [ -1 ]]

Same example, but optimized for best performance with Numpy when function is going to be evaluated on large samples.

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> import numpy as np
>>> def a_exec_sample(X):
...     Xarray = np.array(X, copy=False)
...     Y = 3.0 * Xarray[:,0] - Xarray[:,1]
...     return np.expand_dims(Y, axis=1)
>>> def a_grad(X):
...     dY = [[3.0], [-1.0]]
...     return dY
>>> f = ot.PythonFunction(2, 1, func_sample=a_exec_sample, gradient=a_grad)
>>> X = [100.0, 100.0]
>>> Y = f(X)
>>> print(Y)
[200]
>>> dY = f.gradient(X)
>>> print(dY)
[[  3 ]
 [ -1 ]]

Notes

We note f: \Rset^n \rightarrow \Rset^p where \vect{x} = (x_1, \dots, x_n) and f(\vect{x}) = (f_1(\vect{x}), \dots,f_p(\vect{x})), with n\geq 1 and p\geq 1.

  • In the first usage:

Draws graph of the given 1D outputMarg marginal f_k: \Rset^n \rightarrow \Rset as a function of the given 1D inputMarg marginal with respect to the variation of x_i in the interval [x_i^{min}, x_i^{max}], when all the other components of \vect{x} are fixed to the corresponding ones of the central point CP. Then OpenTURNS draws the graph: t\in [x_i^{min}, x_i^{max}] \mapsto f_k(CP_1, \dots, CP_{i-1}, t,  CP_{i+1} \dots, CP_n).

  • In the second usage:

Draws the iso-curves of the given outputMarg marginal f_k as a function of the given 2D firstInputMarg and secondInputMarg marginals with respect to the variation of (x_i, x_j) in the interval [x_i^{min}, x_i^{max}] \times [x_j^{min}, x_j^{max}], when all the other components of \vect{x} are fixed to the corresponding ones of the central point CP. Then OpenTURNS draws the graph: (t,u) \in [x_i^{min}, x_i^{max}] \times [x_j^{min}, x_j^{max}] \mapsto f_k(CP_1, \dots, CP_{i-1}, t, CP_{i+1}, \dots, CP_{j-1}, u,  CP_{j+1} \dots, CP_n).

  • In the third usage:

The same as the first usage but only for function f: \Rset \rightarrow \Rset.

  • In the fourth usage:

The same as the second usage but only for function f: \Rset^2 \rightarrow \Rset.
