Let us denote :math:`\underline y = (y_1, \dots, y_n)` the observation sample, :math:`\underline z = (f(x_1|\underline{\theta}), \ldots, f(x_n|\underline{\theta}))` the model prediction, :math:`p(y |z)` the density function of observation :math:`y` conditional on model prediction :math:`z`, and :math:`\underline{\theta} \in \mathbb{R}^p` the calibration parameters we wish to estimate. The posterior distribution is given by Bayes theorem: .. math::\pi(\underline{\theta} | \underline y) \quad \propto \quad L\left(\underline y | \underline{\theta}\right) \times \pi(\underline{\theta}):math:`` where :math:`\propto` means "proportional to", regarded as a function of :math:`\underline{\theta}`. The posterior distribution is approximated here by the empirical distribution of the sample :math:`\underline{\theta}^1, \ldots, \underline{\theta}^N` generated by the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. This means that any quantity characteristic of the posterior distribution (mean, variance, quantile, ...) is approximated by its empirical counterpart. Our model (i.e. the compute code to calibrate) is a standard normal linear regression, where .. math:: y_i = \theta_1 + x_i \theta_2 + x_i^2 \theta_3 + \varepsilon_i where :math:`\varepsilon_i \stackrel{i.i.d.}{\sim} \mathcal N(0, 1)`. The "true" value of :math:`\theta` is: .. math:: \theta_{true} = (-4.5,4.8,2.2)^T. We use a normal prior on :math:`\underline{\theta}`: .. math:: \pi(\underline{\theta}) = \mathcal N(\mu_\theta, \Sigma_\theta) where .. math:: \mu_\theta = \begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 4 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} is the mean of the prior and .. math:: \Sigma_\theta = \begin{pmatrix} \sigma_{\theta_1}^2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \sigma_{\theta_2}^2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \sigma_{\theta_3}^2 \end{pmatrix} is the prior covariance matrix with .. math:: \sigma_{\theta_1} = 2, \qquad \sigma_{\theta_2} = 1, \qquad \sigma_{\theta_3} = 1.5. The following objects need to be defined in order to perform Bayesian calibration: - The conditional density :math:`p(y|z)` must be defined as a probability distribution - The computer model must be implemented thanks to the ParametricFunction class. This takes a value of :math:`\underline{\theta}` as input, and outputs the vector of model predictions :math:`\underline z`, as defined above (the vector of covariates :math:`\underline x = (x_1, \ldots, x_n)` is treated as a known constant). When doing that, we have to keep in mind that :math:`z` will be used as the vector of parameters corresponding to the distribution specified for :math:`p(y |z)`. For instance, if :math:`p(y|z)` is normal, this means that :math:`z` must be a vector containing the mean and variance of :math:`y` - The prior density :math:`\pi(\underline{\theta})` encoding the set of possible values for the calibration parameters, each value being weighted by its a priori probability, reflecting the beliefs about the possible values of :math:`\underline{\theta}` before consideration of the experimental data. Again, this is implemented as a probability distribution - The Metropolis-Hastings algorithm that samples from the posterior distribution of the calibration parameters requires a vector :math:`\underline{\theta}_0` initial values for the calibration parameters, as well as the proposal laws used to update each parameter sequentially. .. code-block:: default import openturns as ot import openturns.viewer as viewer from matplotlib import pylab as plt ot.Log.Show(ot.Log.NONE) Dimension of the vector of parameters to calibrate .. code-block:: default paramDim = 3 # The number of obesrvations obsSize = 10 - Define the observed inputs :math:`x_i` .. code-block:: default xmin = -2. xmax = 3. step = (xmax-xmin)/(obsSize-1) rg = ot.RegularGrid(xmin, step, obsSize) x_obs = rg.getVertices() x_obs .. raw:: html
