Notes

The Matern function is a stationary covariance function with dimension d=1.

We consider the scalar stochastic process X: \Omega \times\cD \mapsto \Rset, where \omega \in \Omega is an event, \cD is a domain of \Rset^n.

The Matern function is defined by:

C(\vect{s}, \vect{t}) = \sigma^2 \dfrac{ 2^{1-\nu} }{\Gamma(\nu) } \left(\sqrt{2 \nu} \left\|\dfrac{\vect{s}-\vect{t}}{\vect{\theta}}\right\|_2\right)^{\nu} \mathrm{K}_{\nu} \left(\sqrt{2 \nu} \left\|\dfrac{\vect{s}-\vect{t}}{\vect{\theta}}\right\|_2\right), \quad \forall (\vect{s}, \vect{t}) \in \cD \times \cD

The correlation function \rho writes:

\rho(\vect{s}, \vect{t}) = \dfrac{ 2^{1-\nu} }{\Gamma(\nu) } \left(\sqrt{2 \nu} \left\| \vect{s}- \vect{t}  \right\|_2\right)^{\nu} \mathrm{K}_{\nu} \left(\sqrt{2 \nu} \left\| \vect{s}- \vect{t}  \right\|_2\right), \quad \forall (\vect{s}, \vect{t}) \in \cD \times \cD

Examples

Create a standard Matern covariance function:

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> covModel = ot.MaternModel(2)
>>> t = [0.1, 0.3]
>>> s = [0.2, 0.4]
>>> print(covModel(s, t))
[[ 0.974477 ]]
>>> tau = [0.1, 0.3]
>>> print(covModel(tau))
[[ 0.894994 ]]

Create a Matern covariance function specifying the scale vector and \nu:

>>> covModel2 = ot.MaternModel([1.5, 2.5], 2.3)
>>> covModel2bis = ot.MaternModel([1.5]*3, 2.3)

Create a Matern covariance function specifying the scale vector, the amplitude and \nu:

>>> covModel3 = ot.MaternModel([1.5, 2.5], [3.5], 4.5)

__init__(*args)
computeAsScalar(*args)

Compute the covariance function for scalar model.

Available usages:

computeAsScalar(s, t)

computeAsScalar(tau)

Parameters
s, tfloats (if n=1) or sequences of floats (any n)

Multivariate index (\vect{s}, \vect{t}) \in \cD \times \cD

taufloat (if n=1) or sequence of floats (any n)

Multivariate index \vect{\tau} \in \cD

Returns
covariancefloat

Notes

The method makes sense only if the dimension of the process is d=1. It evaluates C(\vect{s}, \vect{t}).

In the second usage, the covariance model must be stationary. Then we note C^{stat}(\vect{\tau}) for C(\vect{s}, \vect{s}+\vect{\tau}) as this quantity does not depend on \vect{s}.

computeCrossCovariance(*args)

computeCrossCovariance the covariance function on a given mesh.

Parameters
firstVerticesSample or Point

Container of the first discretization vertices

secondVerticesSample or Point

Container of the second discretization vertices

Returns
MatrixMatrix

Container of the cross covariance

Notes

This method computes a cross-covariance matrix. The cross-covariance is the evaluation of the covariance model on both firstVertices and secondVertices.

If firstVertices contains n_1 points and secondVertices contains n_2 points, the method returns an n_1 d \times n_2 d matrix (d being the output dimension).

To make things easier, let us focus on the d=1 case. Let \vect{x}_0, \dots, \vect{x}_{n_1-1} be the points of firstVertices and let \vect{y}_0, \dots, \vect{y}_{n_2-1} be the points of secondVertices. The result is the n_1 \times n_2 matrix \mat{M} such that for any nonnegative integers i < n_1 and j < n_2, \mat{M}_{i,j} = \mathcal{C}(\vect{x}_i, \vect{y}_j).

    \begin{array}{cccc}
    C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_1) &C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_2) & \dots &
    C(\vect{t}_1, \vect{t}_{k}) \\
