bilby.bilby_mcmc.proposals.BaseGravitationalWaveTransientProposal

class bilby.bilby_mcmc.proposals.BaseGravitationalWaveTransientProposal(priors, weight=1)[source]

Bases: BaseProposal

__init__(priors, weight=1)[source]

__call__(chain, likelihood=None, priors=None)[source]: Call self as a function.

Methods

`__init__`(priors[, weight])
`apply_boundaries`(point)
`apply_periodic_boundary`(key, val)
`apply_reflective_boundary`(key, val)
`check_dependencies`([warn])	Check the dependencies required to use the proposal
`get_cos_theta_jn`(sample)
`get_delta_phase`(phase, sample)
`get_phase`(sample)
`propose`(chain)	Propose a new point

Attributes

`acceptance_ratio`
`accepted`
`n`
`rejected`

static check_dependencies(warn=True)[source]

Check the dependencies required to use the proposal

Parameters:

warn: bool: If true, print a warning

Returns:

check: bool: If true, dependencies exist

abstract propose(chain)[source]

Propose a new point

This method must be overwritten by implemented proposals. The propose method is called by __call__, then boundaries applied, before returning the proposed point.

Parameters:

chain: bilby.core.sampler.bilby_mcmc.chain.Chain: The chain to use for the proposal

Returns:

proposal: bilby.core.sampler.bilby_mcmc.Sample: The proposed point
log_factor: float: The natural-log of the additional factor entering the acceptance probability to ensure detailed balance. For symmetric proposals, a value of 0 should be returned.
