class SpectralGaussianProcess(*args)

Spectral Gaussian process.

Available constructors:

SpectralGaussianProcess(spectralModel, timeGrid)

SpectralGaussianProcess(spectralModel, maxFreq, N)

Parameters
timeGridRegularGrid

The time grid associated to the process. The algorithm is only implemented when the mesh is a regular grid.

spectralModelSpectralModel
maxFreqfloat

Equal to the maximal frequency minus \Delta f.

Nfloat

The number of points in the frequency grid, which is equal to the number of time stamps of the time grid.

Notes

  • In the first usage, we fix the time grid and the second order model (spectral density model) which implements the process. The frequency discretization is deduced from the time discretization by the formulas f_{max} = \frac{1}{\Delta t}, \quad \Delta f = \frac{1}{t_{max}}, N = \frac{f_{max}}{\Delta f}= \frac{t_{max}}{\Delta t}

  • In the second usage, the process is fixed in the frequency domain. fmax value and N induce the time grid. Care: the maximal frequency used in the computation is not fmax but (1-1/N)fmax = fmax - \Delta f.

  • In the third usage, the spectral model is given and the other arguments are the same as the first usage.

  • In the fourth usage, the spectral model is given and the other arguments are the same as the second usage.

The first call of getRealization() might be time consuming because it computes N hermitian matrices of size d \times \ d, where d is the dimension of the spectral model. These matrices are factorized and stored in order to be used for each call of the getRealization method.

Examples

Create a SpectralGaussianProcess from a spectral model and a time grid:

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> amplitude = [1.0, 2.0]
>>> scale = [4.0, 5.0]
>>> spatialCorrelation = ot.CorrelationMatrix(2)
>>> spatialCorrelation[0,1] = 0.8
>>> myTimeGrid =  ot.RegularGrid(0.0, 0.1, 20)
>>> mySpectralModel = ot.CauchyModel(scale, amplitude, spatialCorrelation)
>>> mySpectNormProc1 = ot.SpectralGaussianProcess(mySpectralModel, myTimeGrid)

Notes

A stochastic process is normal if all its finite dimensional joint distributions are normal, which means that for all k \in \Nset and I_k \in \Nset^*, with cardI_k=k, there is \vect{m}_1, \dots, \vect{m}_k \in \Rset^d and \mat{C}_{1,\dots,k}\in\mathcal{M}_{kd,kd}(\Rset) such that:

\Expect{\exp\left\{i\Tr{\vect{X}}_{I_k} \vect{U}_{k}  \right\}} =
\exp{\left\{i\Tr{\vect{U}}_{k}\vect{M}_{k}-\frac{1}{2}\Tr{\vect{U}}_{k}\mat{C}_{1,\dots,k}\vect{U}_{k}\right\}}

where \Tr{\vect{X}}_{I_k} = (\Tr{X}_{\vect{t}_1}, \hdots, \Tr{X}_{\vect{t}_k}), \\Tr{vect{U}}_{k} = (\Tr{\vect{u}}_{1}, \hdots, \Tr{\vect{u}}_{k}) and \Tr{\vect{M}}_{k} = (\Tr{\vect{m}}_{1}, \hdots, \Tr{\vect{m}}_{k}) and \mat{C}_{1,\dots,k} is the symmetric matrix:

\mat{C}_{1,\dots,k} = \left(
\begin{array}{cccc}
  C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_1) &C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_2) & \hdots & C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_{k}) \\
  \hdots & C(\vect{t}_2, \vect{t}_2)  & \hdots & C(\vect{t}_2, \vect{t}_{k}) \\
  \hdots & \hdots & \hdots & \hdots \\
  \hdots & \hdots & \hdots & C(\vect{t}_{k}, \vect{t}_{k})
\end{array}
\right)

A Gaussian process is entirely defined by its mean function m and its covariance function C (or correlation function R).

isStationary(self)

Test whether the process is stationary or not.

Returns
isStationarybool

True if the process is stationary.

Notes

A process X is stationary if its distribution is invariant by translation: \forall k \in \Nset, \forall (\vect{t}_1, \dots, \vect{t}_k) \in \cD, \forall \vect{h}\in \Rset^n, we have:

(X_{\vect{t}_1}, \dots, X_{\vect{t}_k})
\stackrel{\mathcal{D}}{=} (X_{\vect{t}_1+\vect{h}}, \dots, X_{\vect{t}_k+\vect{h}})
