Symmetric and finite version of KL divergence. The Jensen-Shannon distance is the square root of the Jensen-Shannon divergence. Values are defined between 0 and np.sqrt(ln(2)) = 0.83256

Parameters:

Compares two probability distributions. When KL < 0.1 the two distributions are similar. When KL < 0.01 the two distributions are nearly indistinguishable.

Note that when qk is 0 but pk > 0 at some bin, KL divergence explodes.

Parameters:

pk (xarray.DataArray) – Observed / true / empirical probability distribution
qk (xarray.DataArray) – Predicted / model / approximating probability distribution
dim (str) – Name of the bin dimension.
eps (float, optional) – Small value for numerical stability. Default is 1e-12.

disdrodb.psd.gof_metrics.compute_kolmogorov_smirnov_distance(pk, qk, dim)[source][source]#

Compute Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) distance.

The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) distance is bounded between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates that the two distributions are identical. The associated KS test p-value ranges from 0 to 1, with a value of 1 indicating no evidence against the null hypothesis that the distributions are identical. When the p value is smaller than the significance level (e.g. < 0.05) the model is rejected.

If model parameters are estimated from the same data to which the model is compared, the standard KS p-values are invalid. The solution is to use a parametric bootstrap: 1. Fit model to your data 2. Simulate many datasets from that fitted gamma 3. Refit gamma for each simulated dataset 4. Compute KS statistic each time 5. Compare your observed KS statistic to the bootstrap distribution

Parameters:

qk (xarray.DataArray) – Predicted / model probability distribution
dim (str) – Name of the bin dimension

disdrodb.psd.gof_metrics.compute_wasserstein_distance(pk, qk, D, dD, dim, integration='bin')[source][source]#

The class implementation is inspired by pytmatrix.psd and pyradsim.psd modules and adapted to allow efficient vectorized computations with xarray.

Source code: - jleinonen/pytmatrix - wolfidan/pyradsim

class disdrodb.psd.models.BinnedPSD(bin_edges, bin_psd, interp_method='step_left')[source][source]#

Bases: PSD

Binned particle size distribution (PSD).

This class represents a binned PSD that computes values through interpolation between discretized bin values. This approach is useful for representing empirically measured or discretized PSDs.

The PSD values are computed via interpolation from discrete bin values using various methods. Values outside the defined bin range are set to zero, and all returned values are non-negative.

Parameters:

bin_edges (array-like) – Sequence of n+1 bin edge values defining the bins [mm]. Must be monotonically increasing.
bin_psd (array-like) – Sequence of n PSD values corresponding to the intervals defined by bin_edges [m^-3 mm^-1].
interp_method (str, optional) –
Interpolation method for computing PSD values between bin centers. Valid methods can be:
- ’step_left’: Use the value from the left bin (piecewise constant, left-continuous)
- ’step_right’: Use the value from the right bin (piecewise constant, right-continuous)
- ’linear’: Linear interpolation between bin centers
- ’pchip’: Piecewise Cubic Hermite Interpolating Polynomial, preserves monotonicity
Default is ‘step_left’.

bin_edges#

Bin edge values.

Type:: numpy.ndarray

bin_psd#

PSD values for each bin.

Type:: numpy.ndarray

interp_method#

Selected interpolation method.

Type:: str

Notes

Values for diameters D outside the range (bin_edges[0], bin_edges[-1]) are set to 0
Interpolation is performed using bin centers computed as the midpoint of each bin
All PSD values are clipped to be non-negative after interpolation
The ‘pchip’ method is recommended when smoothness and monotonicity preservation are important

Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> bin_edges = [0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0]
>>> bin_psd = [10.0, 20.0, 30.0, 0.0]
>>> D = np.linspace(0, 3.5, 100)
>>>
>>> # Using linear interpolation
>>> psd_linear = BinnedPSD(bin_edges, bin_psd, interp_method="linear")
>>> psd_values = psd_linear(D)
>>>
>>> # Using step interpolation
>>> psd_step = BinnedPSD(bin_edges, bin_psd, interp_method="step_left")
>>> psd_values_step = psd_step(D)

Bases: XarrayPSD

Callable class implementing a normalized gamma particle size distribution parameterized by a characteristic diameter and shape parameter. The PSD can be evaluated by calling the instance with particle diameters.

Notes

The normalized gamma PSD is defined as:

\[N(D) = N_w \ f(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_{50}} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 3.67)\frac{D}{D_{50}}\right]\]

with

\[f(\mu) = \frac{6}{3.67^4} \frac{(\mu + 3.67)^{\mu + 4}}{\Gamma(\mu + 4)}\]

where:

\(D\) is the particle diameter,
\(D_{50}\) is the median volume diameter,
\(N_w\) is the intercept parameter,
\(\mu\) is the shape parameter,
\(\Gamma(\cdot)\) denotes the gamma function.

Alternative formulation using the mass-weighted mean diameter \(D_m\) (Testud et al., 2001; Bringi et al., 2001; Williams et al., 2014; Dolan et al., 2018):

\[N(D) = N_w \, f_1(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_m} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 4)\frac{D}{D_m}\right]\]

with

\[f_1(\mu) = \frac{6}{4^4} \frac{(\mu + 4)^{\mu + 4}}{\Gamma(\mu + 4)}\]

This formulation corresponds to a normalization with respect to liquid water content.

Another alternative formulation normalized by total number concentration (Tokay et al., 2010; Illingworth et al., 2002):

\[N(D) = N_t \, f_2(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_m} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 4)\frac{D}{D_m}\right]\]

\[f_2(\mu) = \frac{(\mu + 4)^{\mu + 1}}{\Gamma(\mu + 1)}\]

class disdrodb.psd.models.NormalizedGeneralizedGammaPSD(i=1.0, j=0.0, Nc=1, Dc=1.0, c=1.0, mu=0.0)[source][source]#

Bases: XarrayPSD

Normalized generalized gamma particle size distribution (PSD).

This class implements a normalized generalized gamma PSD model based on the double-moment normalization framework. This formulation uses two moments of the distribution to derive normalized parameters, providing a flexible representation of particle size distributions.

The PSD is defined by the formula:

\[N(D; M_i, M_j, \mu, c) = N_c \, c \, \Gamma_i^{\frac{j + c(\mu + 1)}{i - j}} \Gamma_j^{\frac{-i - c(\mu + 1)}{i - j}} \left(\frac{D}{D_c}\right)^{c(\mu + 1) - 1} \exp\left[ -\left(\frac{\Gamma_i}{\Gamma_j}\right)^{\frac{c}{i - j}} \left(\frac{D}{D_c}\right)^c \right]\]

where the normalization parameters are defined as:

\[N_c = M_i^{\frac{j + 1}{j - i}} M_j^{\frac{i + 1}{i - j}}\]

\[D_c = \left(\frac{M_j}{M_i}\right)^{\frac{1}{j - i}}\]

with \(M_i = \Gamma_i\) and \(M_j = \Gamma_j\) representing the i-th and j-th moments of the distribution.

Parameters:

i (float or int, optional) – Moment index i [-]. Default is 1.0.
j (float or int, optional) – Moment index j [-]. Default is 0.0.
Nc (float or xarray.DataArray, optional) – Normalized intercept parameter [m^-3 mm^-1]. Default is 1.0.
Dc (float or xarray.DataArray, optional) – Characteristic diameter parameter [mm]. Default is 1.0.

Notes

The double-moment normalization framework uses two arbitrary moments of the distribution to compute the normalization parameters Nc and Dc. This approach provides a unified framework for comparing different PSD models and relating them to observable quantities.

The moment indices i and j are typically chosen based on the moments that can be most reliably measured or estimated from observations. Common choices include (i=3, j=4) or (i=3, j=6) for radar applications.

Bases: XarrayPSD

Notes

The normalized gamma PSD is defined as:

\[N(D) = N_w \ f(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_{50}} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 3.67)\frac{D}{D_{50}}\right]\]

with

\[f(\mu) = \frac{6}{3.67^4} \frac{(\mu + 3.67)^{\mu + 4}}{\Gamma(\mu + 4)}\]

where:

\(D\) is the particle diameter,
\(D_{50}\) is the median volume diameter,
\(N_w\) is the intercept parameter,
\(\mu\) is the shape parameter,
\(\Gamma(\cdot)\) denotes the gamma function.

Alternative formulation using the mass-weighted mean diameter \(D_m\) (Testud et al., 2001; Bringi et al., 2001; Williams et al., 2014; Dolan et al., 2018):

\[N(D) = N_w \, f_1(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_m} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 4)\frac{D}{D_m}\right]\]

with

\[f_1(\mu) = \frac{6}{4^4} \frac{(\mu + 4)^{\mu + 4}}{\Gamma(\mu + 4)}\]

This formulation corresponds to a normalization with respect to liquid water content.

Another alternative formulation normalized by total number concentration (Tokay et al., 2010; Illingworth et al., 2002):

\[N(D) = N_t \, f_2(\mu) \left( \frac{D}{D_m} \right)^{\mu} \exp\!\left[-(\mu + 4)\frac{D}{D_m}\right]\]

with

\[f_2(\mu) = \frac{(\mu + 4)^{\mu + 1}}{\Gamma(\mu + 1)}\]

Note that \(\Gamma(4) = 6\).

disdrodb.psd.estimate_model_parameters(ds, psd_model, optimization, optimization_settings=None)[source][source]#

Estimate particle size distribution model parameters.

This is the main interface function for fitting PSD models to observed data. It supports three optimization methods: Maximum Likelihood (ML), Method of Moments (MOM), and Grid Search (GS).

Parameters:

ds (xarray.Dataset) –
Input dataset containing PSD observations. Must include:
- drop_number_concentration : Drop number concentration [m⁻³ mm⁻¹]
- diameter_bin_center : Diameter bin centers [mm]
- diameter_bin_width : Diameter bin widths [mm]
Additional variables required for specific optimization methods:
- For ML: diameter_bin_lower, diameter_bin_upper
- For GS with target=’R’: fall_velocity (auto-computed if missing)
- For MOM: Moment variables M0, M1, …, M6 (depending on method)
psd_model (str) –
Name of the PSD model to fit. Valid options:
- "GammaPSD" : Gamma distribution
- "NormalizedGammaPSD" : Normalized gamma distribution
- "LognormalPSD" : Lognormal distribution
- "ExponentialPSD" : Exponential distribution
Use available_optimization(psd_model) to check which optimization methods are available for a given model.
optimization (str) –
Optimization method to use. Valid options:
- "ML" : Maximum Likelihood estimation
- "MOM" : Method of Moments
- "GS" : Grid Search
optimization_settings –
Dictionary of keyword arguments specific to the chosen optimization method.

For optimization="ML":
- init_method : str or list, Method(s) of moments for parameter initialization
- probability_method : str, Method to compute probabilities (default: ‘cdf’)
- likelihood : str, Likelihood function (‘multinomial’ or ‘poisson’, default: ‘multinomial’)
- truncated_likelihood : bool, Use truncated likelihood (default: True)
- optimizer : str, Optimization algorithm (default: ‘Nelder-Mead’)
For optimization="GS":
- fixed_parametersdict, optional
 Allows to specify PSD model parameters to fixed value(s). For example for psd_model=GammaPSD one can use fixed_parameters={“mu”: 3} For psd_model=NormalizedGeneralizedGammaPSD, it’s mandatory to specify i and j moment order with: fixed_parameters={“i”: 3, “j”: 4}
- objectives: dict, optional
 List of optimization objectives. If None (default), use DEFAULT_OBJECTIVES. Each objective dict must contain:
 "target"str
 Target quantity to optimize. Valid options: - "N(D)" : Drop number concentration [m⁻³ mm⁻¹] - "H(x)" : Normalized drop number concentration [-]. Only for Normalized PSD models. - "R" : Rain rate [mm h⁻¹] - "Z" : Radar reflectivity [mm⁶ m⁻³] - "LWC" : Liquid water content [g m⁻³] - "M" : Moment of order p
 
 "transformation"str
 Transformation applied before computing the error. Valid options: - "identity" : No transformation - "log" : Natural logarithm transformation - "log10" : Base-10 logarithmic transformation - "sqrt" : Square root transformation
 
 "censoring"str
 Censoring applied to observed PSD. Valid options: - "none" : No censoring applied - "left" : Left-censored (remove leading zero bins) - "right" : Right-censored (remove trailing zero bins) - "both" : Both sides censored
 
 "loss"str
 Error metric. For "N(D)" and "H(x)" valid options are "SSE", "SAE", "MAE", "MSE", "RMSE", "relMAE" "KLDiv", "JSD", "WD", "KS". For "R", "Z", "LWC", and "M" valid options are "AE", "SE".
 
 "loss_weight"float, optional
 Weight for this objective in the combined loss (default: 1.0 for single objective). When multiple objectives are provided, weights are normalized to sum to 1.0.

Returns:

ds_params – Dataset containing the estimated PSD model parameters with attributes. Variables depend on the selected psd_model:

GammaPSD : N0, mu, Lambda
NormalizedGammaPSD : Nw, mu, Dm
LognormalPSD : Nt, mu, sigma
ExponentialPSD : N0, Lambda

Each parameter variable includes attributes with parameter name, units, and optimization metadata.

Dataset attributes include:

disdrodb_psd_model : The fitted PSD model name
disdrodb_psd_optimization : The optimization method used
disdrodb_psd_optimization_settings : String representation of kwargs

Return type:

xarray.Dataset
