SmoothSphereBivariateSpline#
- class scipy.interpolate.SmoothSphereBivariateSpline(theta, phi, r, w=None, s=0.0, eps=1e-16)[source]#
- Smooth bivariate spline approximation in spherical coordinates. - Added in version 0.11.0. - Parameters:
- theta, phi, rarray_like
- 1-D sequences of data points (order is not important). Coordinates must be given in radians. Theta must lie within the interval - [0, pi], and phi must lie within the interval- [0, 2pi].
- warray_like, optional
- Positive 1-D sequence of weights. 
- sfloat, optional
- Positive smoothing factor defined for estimation condition: - sum((w(i)*(r(i) - s(theta(i), phi(i))))**2, axis=0) <= sDefault- s=len(w)which should be a good value if- 1/w[i]is an estimate of the standard deviation of- r[i].
- epsfloat, optional
- A threshold for determining the effective rank of an over-determined linear system of equations. eps should have a value within the open interval - (0, 1), the default is 1e-16.
 
 - Methods - __call__(theta, phi[, dtheta, dphi, grid])- Evaluate the spline or its derivatives at given positions. - ev(theta, phi[, dtheta, dphi])- Evaluate the spline at points - Return spline coefficients. - Return a tuple (tx,ty) where tx,ty contain knots positions of the spline with respect to x-, y-variable, respectively. - Return weighted sum of squared residuals of the spline approximation: sum ((w[i]*(z[i]-s(x[i],y[i])))**2,axis=0) - partial_derivative(dx, dy)- Construct a new spline representing a partial derivative of this spline. - See also - BivariateSpline

 - Notes - For more information, see the FITPACK site about this function. - Examples - Suppose we have global data on a coarse grid (the input data does not have to be on a grid): - >>> import numpy as np >>> theta = np.linspace(0., np.pi, 7) >>> phi = np.linspace(0., 2*np.pi, 9) >>> data = np.empty((theta.shape[0], phi.shape[0])) >>> data[:,0], data[0,:], data[-1,:] = 0., 0., 0. >>> data[1:-1,1], data[1:-1,-1] = 1., 1. >>> data[1,1:-1], data[-2,1:-1] = 1., 1. >>> data[2:-2,2], data[2:-2,-2] = 2., 2. >>> data[2,2:-2], data[-3,2:-2] = 2., 2. >>> data[3,3:-2] = 3. >>> data = np.roll(data, 4, 1) - We need to set up the interpolator object - >>> lats, lons = np.meshgrid(theta, phi) >>> from scipy.interpolate import SmoothSphereBivariateSpline >>> lut = SmoothSphereBivariateSpline(lats.ravel(), lons.ravel(), ... data.T.ravel(), s=3.5) - As a first test, we’ll see what the algorithm returns when run on the input coordinates - >>> data_orig = lut(theta, phi) - Finally we interpolate the data to a finer grid - >>> fine_lats = np.linspace(0., np.pi, 70) >>> fine_lons = np.linspace(0., 2 * np.pi, 90) - >>> data_smth = lut(fine_lats, fine_lons) - >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt >>> fig = plt.figure() >>> ax1 = fig.add_subplot(131) >>> ax1.imshow(data, interpolation='nearest') >>> ax2 = fig.add_subplot(132) >>> ax2.imshow(data_orig, interpolation='nearest') >>> ax3 = fig.add_subplot(133) >>> ax3.imshow(data_smth, interpolation='nearest') >>> plt.show()
