CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian

class CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian(*args)

Second order centered finite-difference scheme.

Available constructors:

CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian(epsilon, evalImpl)

CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian(step, evalImpl)

Parameters

evalImplEvaluationImplementation

Implementation of the evaluation of a function.

epsilonfloat, sequence of float

Finite difference steps for each dimension.

stepFiniteDifferenceStep

Defines how finite difference steps values are computed.

Notes

CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian provides a second order centered finite- difference scheme:

Examples

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> formulas = ['x1 * sin(x2)', 'cos(x1 + x2)', '(x2 + 1) * exp(x1 - 2 * x2)']
>>> myFunc = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1', 'x2'], formulas)
>>> epsilon = [0.01]*2
>>> myHessian = ot.CenteredFiniteDifferenceHessian(epsilon, myFunc.getEvaluation())
>>> inPoint = [1.0]*2
>>> print(myHessian.hessian(inPoint))
