UniformLinearPrior

class dysmalpy.parameters.UniformLinearPrior[source]

Methods Summary

`log_prior`(param, **kwargs)	Returns the log value of the prior given the parameter value
`prior_unit_transform`(param, u, **kwargs)	Transforms a uniform random variable Uniform[0.,1.] to the prior distribution
`sample_prior`(param[, N])	Returns a random sample of parameter values distributed according to the prior

Methods Documentation

static log_prior(param, **kwargs)[source]: Returns the log value of the prior given the parameter value

prior_unit_transform(param, u, **kwargs)[source]

Transforms a uniform random variable Uniform[0.,1.] to the prior distribution

Parameters:

param (DysmalParameter) – DysmalParameter object with which the prior is associated
u (float or list-like) – Random uniform variable(s) drawn from Uniform[0.,1.]

Returns:

v – Transformation of the random uniform variable u to random value(s) drawn from the prior distribution.

Return type:

float or list-like

static sample_prior(param, N=1, **kwargs)[source]: Returns a random sample of parameter values distributed according to the prior
