class BoxCoxTransform(*args)

BoxCox transformation.

Refer to Box Cox transformation.

Available constructors:

BoxCoxTransform(lambdaVect, shiftVect = [0])

BoxCoxTransform(lambda, shift=0)

Parameters:
lambdaVectsequence of float

The (\lambda_1, \dots, \lambda_d) parameter.

shiftVectsequence of float

The (\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_d) parameter.

Default is (\alpha_1, \dots, \alpha_d)=(0, \dots, 0).

lambdafloat

The \lambda parameter in the univariate case.

shiftfloat

The \alpha parameter in the univariate case.

Default is \alpha = 0.

Notes

The Box Cox transformation h_{\vect{\lambda}, \vect{\alpha}}: \Rset^d \rightarrow \Rset^d writes for each component h_{\lambda_i, \alpha_i}: \Rset \rightarrow \Rset:

h_{\lambda_i, \alpha_i} (x)= 
\left\{
\begin{array}{ll}
\dfrac{(x+\alpha_i)^{\lambda_i}-1}{\lambda} & \lambda_i \neq 0 \\
\log(x+\alpha_i)                        & \lambda_i = 0
\end{array}
\right.

for all x+\alpha_i >0.

The inverse Box Cox transformation writes:

\begin{array}{lcl}
  h_{\lambda_i, \alpha_i}^{-1}(y) & = &
  \left\{
  \begin{array}{ll}
\displaystyle (\lambda_i y + 1)^{\frac{1}{\lambda_i}} - \alpha_i & \lambda_i \neq 0 \\
\displaystyle \exp(y) - \alpha_i                         & \lambda_i = 0
  \end{array}
  \right.
\end{array}

Examples

Create a Box Cox tranformation:

>>> import openturns as ot
>>> myLambda = 0.1
>>> myBoxCox = ot.BoxCoxTransform(myLambda)

Estimate a transformation from a sample:

>>> mySample = ot.Exponential(2).getSample(100)
>>> myModelTransform = ot.BoxCoxFactory().build(mySample)

Apply ot to the sample:

>>> myNormalSample = myModelTransform(mySample)
>>> hist = ot.HistogramFactory().build(myNormalSample)
>>> graph = hist.drawPDF()

Apply it to a field:

>>> myIndices= ot.Indices([10,5])
>>> myMesher=ot.IntervalMesher(myIndices)
>>> myInterval = ot.Interval([0.0, 0.0], [2.0, 1.0])
>>> myMesh=myMesher.build(myInterval)
>>> amplitude=[1.0]
>>> scale=[0.2, 0.2]
>>> myCovModel=ot.ExponentialModel(scale, amplitude)
>>> myXproc=ot.GaussianProcess(myCovModel, myMesh)
>>> g = ot.SymbolicFunction(['x1'],  ['exp(x1)'])
>>> myDynTransform = ot.ValueFunction(g, myMesh)
>>> myXtProcess = ot.CompositeProcess(myDynTransform, myXproc)
>>> myField = myXtProcess.getRealization()
>>> myModelTransform = ot.BoxCoxFactory().build(myField)
>>> myStabilizedField = myModelTransform(myField.getValues())
>>> marginal = ot.HistogramFactory().build(myStabilizedField)

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.
