pyemma.msm.BayesianHMSM¶

class pyemma.msm.BayesianHMSM(nstates=2, lag=1, stride='effective', p0_prior='mixed', transition_matrix_prior='mixed', nsamples=100, init_hmsm=None, reversible=True, stationary=False, connectivity='largest', mincount_connectivity='1/n', separate=None, observe_nonempty=True, dt_traj='1 step', conf=0.95, store_hidden=False, show_progress=True)¶

Estimator for a Bayesian Hidden Markov state model

__init__(nstates=2, lag=1, stride='effective', p0_prior='mixed', transition_matrix_prior='mixed', nsamples=100, init_hmsm=None, reversible=True, stationary=False, connectivity='largest', mincount_connectivity='1/n', separate=None, observe_nonempty=True, dt_traj='1 step', conf=0.95, store_hidden=False, show_progress=True)¶

Estimator for a Bayesian HMSM

Parameters:

nstates (int, optional, default=2) – number of hidden states
lag (int, optional, default=1) – lagtime to estimate the HMSM at
stride (str or int, default=1) –
stride between two lagged trajectories extracted from the input trajectories. Given trajectory s[t], stride and lag will result in trajectories

s[0], s[tau], s[2 tau], ... s[stride], s[stride + tau], s[stride + 2 tau], ...

Setting stride = 1 will result in using all data (useful for maximum likelihood estimator), while a Bayesian estimator requires a longer stride in order to have statistically uncorrelated trajectories. Setting stride = None ‘effective’ uses the largest neglected timescale as an estimate for the correlation time and sets the stride accordingly.
p0_prior (None, str, float or ndarray(n)) –
Prior for the initial distribution of the HMM. Will only be active if stationary=False (stationary=True means that p0 is identical to the stationary distribution of the transition matrix). Currently implements different versions of the Dirichlet prior that is conjugate to the Dirichlet distribution of p0. p0 is sampled from:

where \(n_i\) are the number of times a hidden trajectory was in state \(i\) at time step 0 and \(a_i\) is the prior count. Following options are available:
- ‘mixed’ (default), \(a_i = p_{0,init}\), where \(p_{0,init}\) is the initial distribution of initial_model.
- ndarray(n) or float, the given array will be used as A.
- ‘uniform’, \(a_i = 1\)
- None, \(a_i = 0\). This option ensures coincidence between sample mean an MLE. Will sooner or later lead to sampling problems, because as soon as zero trajectories are drawn from a given state, the sampler cannot recover and that state will never serve as a starting state subsequently. Only recommended in the large data regime and when the probability to sample zero trajectories from any state is negligible.
transition_matrix_prior (str or ndarray(n, n)) –
Prior for the HMM transition matrix. Currently implements Dirichlet priors if reversible=False and reversible transition matrix priors as described in [3] if reversible=True. For the nonreversible case the posterior of transition matrix \(P\) is:

where \(c_{ij}\) are the number of transitions found for hidden trajectories and \(b_{ij}\) are prior counts.
- ‘mixed’ (default), \(b_{ij} = p_{ij,init}\), where \(p_{ij,init}\) is the transition matrix of initial_model. That means one prior count will be used per row.
- ndarray(n, n) or broadcastable, the given array will be used as B.
- ‘uniform’, \(b_{ij} = 1\)
- None, \(b_ij = 0\). This option ensures coincidence between sample mean an MLE. Will sooner or later lead to sampling problems, because as soon as a transition \(ij\) will not occur in a sample, the sampler cannot recover and that transition will never be sampled again. This option is not recommended unless you have a small HMM and a lot of data.
init_hmsm (HMSM, default=None) – Single-point estimate of HMSM object around which errors will be evaluated. If None is give an initial estimate will be automatically generated using the given parameters.
store_hidden (bool, optional, default=False) – store hidden trajectories in sampled HMMs
show_progress (bool, default=True) – Show progressbars for calculation?

correlation(a, b=None, maxtime=None, k=None, ncv=None)¶

Time-correlation for equilibrium experiment.

In order to simulate a time-correlation experiment (e.g. fluorescence correlation spectroscopy [NDD11], dynamical neutron scattering [LYP13], ...), first compute the mean values of your experimental observable \(a\) by MSM state:

\[a_i = \frac{1}{N_i} \sum_{x_t \in S_i} f(x_t)\]

where \(S_i\) is the set of configurations belonging to MSM state \(i\) and \(f()\) is a function that computes the experimental observable of interest for configuration \(x_t\). If a cross-correlation function is wanted, also apply the above computation to a second experimental observable \(b\).

Then the accurate (i.e. without statistical error) autocorrelation function of \(f(x_t)\) given the Markov model is computed by correlation(a), and the accurate cross-correlation function is computed by correlation(a,b). This is done by evaluating the equation

\[\begin{split}acf_a(k\tau) &= \mathbf{a}^\top \mathrm{diag}(\boldsymbol{\pi}) \mathbf{P(\tau)}^k \mathbf{a} \\ ccf_{a,b}(k\tau) &= \mathbf{a}^\top \mathrm{diag}(\boldsymbol{\pi}) \mathbf{P(\tau)}^k \mathbf{b}\end{split}\]

where \(acf\) stands for autocorrelation function and \(ccf\) stands for cross-correlation function, \(\mathbf{P(\tau)}\) is the transition matrix at lag time \(\tau\), \(\boldsymbol{\pi}\) is the equilibrium distribution of \(\mathbf{P}\), and \(k\) is the time index.

Note that instead of using this method you could generate a long synthetic trajectory from the MSM and then estimating the time-correlation of your observable(s) directly from this trajectory. However, there is no reason to do this because the present method does that calculation without any sampling, and only in the limit of an infinitely long synthetic trajectory the two results will agree exactly. The correlation function computed by the present method still has statistical uncertainty from the fact that the underlying MSM transition matrix has statistical uncertainty when being estimated from data, but there is no additional (and unnecessary) uncertainty due to synthetic trajectory generation.

Parameters:

a ((n,) ndarray) – Observable, represented as vector on state space
maxtime (int or float) – Maximum time (in units of the input trajectory time step) until which the correlation function will be evaluated. Internally, the correlation function can only be computed in integer multiples of the Markov model lag time, and therefore the actual last time point will be computed at \(\mathrm{ceil}(\mathrm{maxtime} / \tau)\) By default (None), the maxtime will be set equal to the 5 times the slowest relaxation time of the MSM, because after this time the signal is almost constant.
b ((n,) ndarray (optional)) – Second observable, for cross-correlations
k (int (optional)) – Number of eigenvalues and eigenvectors to use for computation. This option is only relevant for sparse matrices and long times for which an eigenvalue decomposition will be done instead of using the matrix power.
ncv (int (optional)) – Only relevant for sparse matrices and large lag times where the relaxation will be computed using an eigenvalue decomposition. The number of Lanczos vectors generated, ncv must be greater than k; it is recommended that ncv > 2*k.

Returns:

times (ndarray (N)) – Time points (in units of the input trajectory time step) at which the correlation has been computed
correlations (ndarray (N)) – Correlation values at given times

Examples

This example computes the autocorrelation function of a simple observable on a three-state Markov model and plots the result using matplotlib:

>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pyemma.msm as msm
>>>
>>> P = np.array([[0.99, 0.01, 0], [0.01, 0.9, 0.09], [0, 0.1, 0.9]])
>>> a = np.array([0.0, 0.5, 1.0])
>>> M = msm.markov_model(P)
>>> times, acf = M.correlation(a)
>>>
>>> import matplotlib.pylab as plt
>>> plt.plot(times, acf)

relaxation(p0, a, maxtime=None, k=None, ncv=None)¶

Simulates a perturbation-relaxation experiment.

In perturbation-relaxation experiments such as temperature-jump, pH-jump, pressure jump or rapid mixing experiments, an ensemble of molecules is initially prepared in an off-equilibrium distribution and the expectation value of some experimental observable is then followed over time as the ensemble relaxes towards equilibrium.

In order to simulate such an experiment, first determine the distribution of states at which the experiment is started, \(p_0\) and compute the mean values of your experimental observable \(a\) by MSM state:

\[a_i = \frac{1}{N_i} \sum_{x_t \in S_i} f(x_t)\]

where \(S_i\) is the set of configurations belonging to MSM state \(i\) and \(f()\) is a function that computes the experimental observable of interest for configuration \(x_t\).

Then the accurate (i.e. without statistical error) time-dependent expectation value of \(f(x_t)\) given the Markov model is computed by relaxation(p0, a). This is done by evaluating the equation

\[E_a(k\tau) = \mathbf{p_0}^{\top} \mathbf{P(\tau)}^k \mathbf{a}\]

where \(E\) stands for the expectation value that relaxes to its equilibrium value that is identical to expectation(a), \(\mathbf{P(\tau)}\) is the transition matrix at lag time \(\tau\), \(\boldsymbol{\pi}\) is the equilibrium distribution of \(\mathbf{P}\), and \(k\) is the time index.

Note that instead of using this method you could generate many synthetic trajectory from the MSM with starting points drawn from the initial distribution and then estimating the time-dependent expectation value by an ensemble average. However, there is no reason to do this because the present method does that calculation without any sampling, and only in the limit of an infinitely many trajectories the two results will agree exactly. The relaxation function computed by the present method still has statistical uncertainty from the fact that the underlying MSM transition matrix has statistical uncertainty when being estimated from data, but there is no additional (and unnecessary) uncertainty due to synthetic trajectory generation.

Parameters:

p0 ((n,) ndarray) – Initial distribution for a relaxation experiment
a ((n,) ndarray) – Observable, represented as vector on state space
maxtime (int or float, optional) – Maximum time (in units of the input trajectory time step) until which the correlation function will be evaluated. Internally, the correlation function can only be computed in integer multiples of the Markov model lag time, and therefore the actual last time point will be computed at \(\mathrm{ceil}(\mathrm{maxtime} / \tau)\). By default (None), the maxtime will be set equal to the 5 times the slowest relaxation time of the MSM, because after this time the signal is constant.
k (int (optional)) – Number of eigenvalues and eigenvectors to use for computation
ncv (int (optional)) – Only relevant for sparse matrices and large lag times, where the relaxation will be computes using an eigenvalue decomposition. The number of Lanczos vectors generated, ncv must be greater than k; it is recommended that ncv > 2*k

res (ndarray) – Array of expectation value at given times

simulate(N, start=None, stop=None, dt=1)¶

Generates a realization of the Hidden Markov Model

Parameters:

N (int) – trajectory length in steps of the lag time
start (int, optional, default = None) – starting hidden state. If not given, will sample from the stationary distribution of the hidden transition matrix.
stop (int or int-array-like, optional, default = None) – stopping hidden set. If given, the trajectory will be stopped before N steps once a hidden state of the stop set is reached
dt (int) – trajectory will be saved every dt time steps. Internally, the dt’th power of P is taken to ensure a more efficient simulation.

Returns:

otraj ((N/dt, ) ndarray) – The observable state discrete trajectory with length N/dt

sparse¶: Returns whether the MSM is sparse

stationary_distribution¶: The stationary distribution on the MSM states

submodel(states=None, obs=None, mincount_connectivity='1/n')¶

Returns a HMM with restricted state space

Parameters:	states (None, str or int-array) – Hidden states to restrict the model to. In addition to specifying the subset, possible options are: * None : all states - don’t restrict * ‘populous-strong’ : strongly connected subset with maximum counts * ‘populous-weak’ : weakly connected subset with maximum counts * ‘largest-strong’ : strongly connected subset with maximum size * ‘largest-weak’ : weakly connected subset with maximum size obs (None, str or int-array) – Observed states to restrict the model to. In addition to specifying an array with the state labels to be observed, possible options are: * None : all states - don’t restrict * ‘nonempty’ : all states with at least one observation in the estimator mincount_connectivity (float or '1/n') – minimum number of counts to consider a connection between two states. Counts lower than that will count zero in the connectivity check and may thus separate the resulting transition matrix. Default value: 1/nstates.
Returns:	hmm – The restricted HMM.
Return type:	HMM

submodel_disconnect(mincount_connectivity='1/n')¶

Disconnects sets of hidden states that are barely connected

Runs a connectivity check excluding all transition counts below mincount_connectivity. The transition matrix and stationary distribution will be re-estimated. Note that the resulting transition matrix may have both strongly and weakly connected subsets.

Parameters:	mincount_connectivity (float or '1/n') – minimum number of counts to consider a connection between two states. Counts lower than that will count zero in the connectivity check and may thus separate the resulting transition matrix. The default evaluates to 1/nstates.
Returns:	hmm – The restricted HMM.
Return type:	HMM

submodel_largest(strong=True, mincount_connectivity='1/n')¶

Returns the largest connected sub-HMM (convenience function)

Returns the most populous connected sub-HMM (convenience function)

Returns:	hmm – The restricted HMM.
Return type:	HMM

timescales(k=None)¶

Parameters:	k (int) – number of timescales to be returned. By default all available eigenvalues, minus 1.
Returns:	ts – relaxation timescales in units of the input trajectory time step, defined by \(-\tau / ln \| \lambda_i \|, i = 2,...,k+1\).
Return type:	ndarray(m)

timestep_model¶: Physical time corresponding to one transition matrix step, e.g. ‘10 ps’

trajectory_weights()¶

Uses the HMSM to assign a probability weight to each trajectory frame.

This is a powerful function for the calculation of arbitrary observables in the trajectories one has started the analysis with. The stationary probability of the MSM will be used to reweigh all states. Returns a list of weight arrays, one for each trajectory, and with a number of elements equal to trajectory frames. Given \(N\) trajectories of lengths \(T_1\) to \(T_N\), this function returns corresponding weights:

\[(w_{1,1}, ..., w_{1,T_1}), (w_{N,1}, ..., w_{N,T_N})\]

that are normalized to one:

\[\sum_{i=1}^N \sum_{t=1}^{T_i} w_{i,t} = 1\]

Suppose you are interested in computing the expectation value of a function \(a(x)\), where \(x\) are your input configurations. Use this function to compute the weights of all input configurations and obtain the estimated expectation by:

\[\langle a \rangle = \sum_{i=1}^N \sum_{t=1}^{T_i} w_{i,t} a(x_{i,t})\]

Or if you are interested in computing the time-lagged correlation between functions \(a(x)\) and \(b(x)\) you could do:

\[\langle a(t) b(t+\tau) \rangle_t = \sum_{i=1}^N \sum_{t=1}^{T_i} w_{i,t} a(x_{i,t}) a(x_{i,t+\tau})\]

Returns:	The normalized trajectory weights. Given \(N\) trajectories of lengths \(T_1\) to \(T_N\), returns the corresponding weights .. math:: – (w_{1,1}, ..., w_{1,T_1}), (w_{N,1}, ..., w_{N,T_N})

transition_matrix¶: The transition matrix on the active set.

transition_matrix_obs(k=1)¶

Computes the transition matrix between observed states

Transition matrices for longer lag times than the one used to parametrize this HMSM can be obtained by setting the k option. Note that a HMSM is not Markovian, thus we cannot compute transition matrices at longer lag times using the Chapman-Kolmogorow equality. I.e.:

\[P (k \tau) \neq P^k (\tau)\]

This function computes the correct transition matrix using the metastable (coarse) transition matrix \(P_c\) as:

\[P (k \tau) = {\Pi}^-1 \chi^{\top} ({\Pi}_c) P_c^k (\tau) \chi\]

where \(\chi\) is the output probability matrix, \(\Pi_c\) is a diagonal matrix with the metastable-state (coarse) stationary distribution and \(\Pi\) is a diagonal matrix with the observable-state stationary distribution.

Parameters:	k (int, optional, default=1) – Multiple of the lag time for which the By default (k=1), the transition matrix at the lag time used to construct this HMSM will be returned. If a higher power is given,

update_model_params(**params)¶: Update given model parameter if they are set to specific values
