# resistics.regression.local module¶

class resistics.regression.local.LocalRegressor(winSelector: resistics.window.selector.WindowSelector, outpath: str)[source]

Performs single site (or intersite) transfer function calculations

By default, the LocalRegression is setup to calculate the impedance tensor using Hx, Hy as input channels and Ex, Ey as output channels. To calculate the Tipper, the appropriate input and output channels have to be set.

Parameters
numWindowsint

The number of windows

datanp.ndarray

Cross-spectra data

Returns
numGoodWindowsint

The number of good windows

goodDatanp.ndarray

The cross-spectra data with bad windows removed

getWindowSmooth(self, **kwargs)[source]

Window smoothing length

Power spectra data is smoothed. This returns the size of the smoothing window.

Parameters
datasizeint

The size of the data

Returns
smoothLenint

Smoothing size

olsProcess(self, numWindows: int, obs: numpy.ndarray, reg: numpy.ndarray) → Tuple[numpy.ndarray, numpy.ndarray][source]

Ordinary least squares regression processing

Perform ordinary least regression processing using observations and regressors for a single evaluation frequency.

Parameters
numWindowsint

The number of windows

obsnp.ndarray

The observations

regnp.ndarray

The regressors

Returns
outputnp.ndarray

The solution to the regression problem

varOutputnp.ndarray

The variance

prepareLinearEqn(self, data: numpy.ndarray)[source]

Prepare data as a linear equation for the robust regression

This prepares the data for the following type of solution,

$y = Ax,$

where $$y$$ is the observations, $$A$$ is the regressors and $$x$$ is the unknown.

The number of observations is number of windows * number of cross-power channels The shapes of the arrays are as follows:

• y is (number of output channels, number of observations)

• A is (number of output channels, number of observations, number of input channels)

• x is (number of output channels, number of input channels)

Consider the impedance tensor,

\begin{eqnarray} E_x & = & Z_{xx} H_x + Z_{xy} H_y \\ E_y & = & Z_{yx} H_x + Z_{yy} H_y \end{eqnarray}

Here, there are two input channels, $$H_x$$, $$H_y$$ and two output channels $$E_x$$ and $$E_y$$. In total, there are four components of the unknown impedance tensor, $$Z_{xx}$$, $$Z_{xy}$$, $$Z_{yx}$$, $$Z_{yy}$$ (number of input channels * number of output channels). The number of observations is the number of windows multiplied by the number of channels used for cross-power spectra.

Parameters
datanp.ndarray

Cross-power spectral data at evaluation frequencies

Returns
numWindowsint

The number of windows included in the regression (after bad value removal)

obsnp.ndarray

Observations array

regnp.ndarray

Regressors array

printList(self) → List[str][source]

Class information as a list of strings

Returns
list

List of strings with information

process(self, ncores: int = 0) → None[source]

Process spectra data

The processing sequence for each decimation level is as below:

1. Get shared (unmasked) windows for all relevant sites (inSite and outSite)

• Calculate out the cross-power spectra.

• Interpolate calculated cross-power data to the evaluation frequencies for the decimation level.

3. For each evaluation frequency

• Do the robust processing to calculate the transfer function at that evaluation frequency.

The spectral power data is smoothed as this tends to improve results. The smoothing can be changed by setting the smoothing parameters. This method is still subject to change in the future as it is an area of active work
