============================= mixedvines Package for Python =============================

Package for canonical vine copula trees with mixed continuous and discrete marginals. If you use this software for publication, please cite [ONKEN2016]_.

Description

This package contains a complete framework based on canonical vine copulas for modeling multivariate data that are partly discrete and partly continuous. The resulting multivariate distributions are flexible with rich dependence structures and marginals.

For continuous marginals, implementations of the normal and the gamma distributions are provided. For discrete marginals, Poisson, binomial and negative binomial distributions are provided. As bivariate copula building blocks, the Gaussian, Frank and Clayton families as well as rotation transformed families are provided. Additional marginal and pair-copula distributions can be added easily.

The package includes methods for sampling, likelihood calculation and inference, all of which have quadratic complexity. These procedures are combined to estimate entropy by means of Monte Carlo integration.

Please see [ONKEN2016]_ for a more detailed description of the framework.

Documentation

The full documentation for the mixedvines package is available at Read the Docs <http://mixedvines.readthedocs.io/>_.

Requirements

The package requires Python 3.10 or greater and additionally requires NumPy and SciPy <http://www.scipy.org/install.html>_.

Installation

To install the mixedvines package, run::

pip install mixedvines

Usage

Suppose that data are given in a NumPy array `samples with shape (n, d), where n is the number of samples and d is the number of elements per sample. First, specify which of the elements are continuous. If, for instance, the distribution has three elements and the first and last elements are continuous whereas the second element is discrete:


.. code-block:: python
is_continuous = [True, False, True]
To fit a mixed vine to the samples:
.. code-block:: python
from mixedvines.mixedvine import MixedVine     vine = MixedVine.fit(samples, is_continuous)

vine is now a MixedVine object. To draw samples from the distribution, calculate their density and estimate the distribution entropy in units of bits:


.. code-block:: python
samples = vine.rvs(size=100)     logpdf = vine.logpdf(samples)     entropy, standarderrormean = vine.entropy(sem_tol=1e-2)
To manually construct and visualize a simple mixed vine model:
.. code-block:: python
from scipy.stats import norm, gamma, poisson     import numpy as np     from mixedvines.copula import GaussianCopula, ClaytonCopula, FrankCopula     from mixedvines.mixedvine import MixedVine     import matplotlib.pyplot as plt     import itertools     # Manually construct mixed vine     dim = 3  # Dimension     vine = MixedVine(dim)     # Specify marginals     vine.set_marginal(0, norm(0, 1))     vine.set_marginal(1, poisson(5))     vine.set_marginal(2, gamma(2, 0, 4))     # Specify pair-copulas     vine.set_copula(1, 0, GaussianCopula(0.5))     vine.set_copula(1, 1, FrankCopula(4))     vine.set_copula(2, 0, ClaytonCopula(5))     # Calculate probability density function on lattice     bnds = np.empty((3), dtype=object)     bnds[0] = [-3, 3]     bnds[1] = [0, 15]     bnds[2] = [0.5, 25]     x0, x1, x2 = np.mgrid[bnds[0][0]:bnds[0][1]:0.05, bnds[1][0]:bnds[1][1],                           bnds[2][0]:bnds[2][1]:0.1]     points = np.array([x0.ravel(), x1.ravel(), x2.ravel()]).T     pdf = vine.pdf(points)     pdf = np.reshape(pdf, x1.shape)     # Generate random variates     size = 100     samples = vine.rvs(size)     # Visualize 2d marginals and samples     comb = list(itertools.combinations(range(dim), 2))     for i, cmb in enumerate(comb):         # Sum over all axes not in cmb         cmb_inv = tuple(set(range(dim)) - set(cmb))         margin = np.sum(pdf, axis=cmb_inv).T         plt.subplot(2, len(comb), i + 1)         plt.imshow(margin, aspect='auto', interpolation='none', cmap='hot',                    origin='lower', extent=[bnds[cmb[0]][0], bnds[cmb[0]][1],                                            bnds[cmb[1]][0], bnds[cmb[1]][1]])         plt.ylabel('$x_' + str(cmb[1]) + '$')         plt.subplot(2, len(comb), len(comb) + i + 1)         plt.scatter(samples[:, cmb[0]], samples[:, cmb[1]], s=1)         plt.xlim(bnds[cmb[0]][0], bnds[cmb[0]][1])         plt.ylim(bnds[cmb[1]][0], bnds[cmb[1]][1])         plt.xlabel('$x_' + str(cmb[0]) + '$')         plt.ylabel('$x_' + str(cmb[1]) + '$')     plt.tight_layout()     plt.show()
