pyemma.thermo.wham(ttrajs, dtrajs, bias, maxiter=100000, maxerr=1e-15, save_convergence_info=0, dt_traj='1 step')

Weighted histogram analysis method

Parameters:
  • ttrajs (numpy.ndarray(T) of int, or list of numpy.ndarray(T_i) of int) – A single discrete trajectory or a list of discrete trajectories. The integers are indexes in 0,...,num_therm_states-1 enumerating the thermodynamic states the trajectory is in at any time.
  • dtrajs (numpy.ndarray(T) of int, or list of numpy.ndarray(T_i) of int) – A single discrete trajectory or a list of discrete trajectories. The integers are indexes in 0,...,num_conf_states-1 enumerating the num_conf_states Markov states or the bins the trajectory is in at any time.
  • bias (numpy.ndarray(shape=(num_therm_states, num_conf_states)) object) – bias_energies_full[j, i] is the bias energy in units of kT for each discrete state i at thermodynamic state j.
  • maxiter (int, optional, default=10000) – The maximum number of dTRAM iterations before the estimator exits unsuccessfully.
  • maxerr (float, optional, default=1e-15) – Convergence criterion based on the maximal free energy change in a self-consistent iteration step.
  • save_convergence_info (int, optional, default=0) – Every save_convergence_info iteration steps, store the actual increment and the actual loglikelihood; 0 means no storage.
  • dt_traj (str, optional, default='1 step') –

    Description of the physical time corresponding to the lag. May be used by analysis algorithms such as plotting tools to pretty-print the axes. By default ‘1 step’, i.e. there is no physical time unit. Specify by a number, whitespace and unit. Permitted units are (* is an arbitrary string):

    ‘fs’, ‘femtosecond*’
    ‘ps’, ‘picosecond*’
    ‘ns’, ‘nanosecond*’
    ‘us’, ‘microsecond*’
    ‘ms’, ‘millisecond*’
    ‘s’, ‘second*’
Returns:

A stationary model which consists of thermodynamic quantities at all temperatures/thermodynamic states.

Return type:

A MultiThermModel object

Example

Umbrella sampling: Suppose we simulate in K umbrellas, centered at positions \(y_0,...,y_{K-1}\) with bias energies

\[b_k(x) = \frac{c_k}{2 \textrm{kT}} \cdot (x - y_k)^2\]

Suppose we have one simulation of length T in each umbrella, and they are ordered from 0 to K-1. We have discretized the x-coordinate into 100 bins. Then dtrajs and ttrajs should each be a list of \(K\) arrays. dtrajs would look for example like this:

[ (0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...),  (0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, ...), ... ]

where each array has length T, and is the sequence of bins (in the range 0 to 99) visited along the trajectory. ttrajs would look like this:

[ (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, ...),  (1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, ...), ... ]

Because trajectory 1 stays in umbrella 1 (index 0), trajectory 2 stays in umbrella 2 (index 1), and so forth. bias is a \(K \times n\) matrix with all reduced bias energies evaluated at all centers:

\[\begin{split}\left(\begin{array}{cccc} b_0(y_0) & b_0(y_1) & ... & b_0(y_{n-1}) \\ b_1(y_0) & b_1(y_1) & ... & b_1(y_{n-1}) \\ ... \\ b_{K-1}(y_0) & b_{K-1}(y_1) & ... & b_{K-1}(y_{n-1}) \end{array}\right)\end{split}\]

Let us try the above example:

>>> from pyemma.thermo import wham
>>> import numpy as np
>>> ttrajs = [np.array([0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]), np.array([1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1])]
>>> dtrajs = [np.array([0,0,0,0,1,1,1,0,0,0]), np.array([0,1,0,1,0,1,1,0,0,1])]
>>> bias = np.array([[0.0, 0.0], [0.5, 1.0]])
>>> wham_obj = wham(ttrajs, dtrajs, bias)
>>> wham_obj.log_likelihood() 
-6.6...
>>> wham_obj.state_counts 
array([[7, 3],
       [5, 5]])
>>> wham_obj.stationary_distribution 
array([ 0.5...,  0.4...])
