[docs] def wp(sample1, rp_bins, pi_max, sample2=None, randoms=None, period=None, do_auto=True, do_cross=True, estimator='Natural', num_threads=1, approx_cell1_size=None, approx_cell2_size=None, approx_cellran_size=None, seed=None): r""" Calculate the projected two point correlation function, :math:`w_{p}(r_p)`, where :math:`r_p` is the separation perpendicular to the line-of-sight (LOS). The first two dimensions define the plane for perpendicular distances. The third dimension is used for parallel distances, i.e. x,y positions are on the plane of the sky, and z is the redshift coordinate. This is the 'distant observer' approximation. Note in particular that the `~halotools.mock_observables.wp` function does not accept angular coordinates for the input ``sample1`` or ``sample2``. If you are trying to calculate projected galaxy clustering from a set of observational data, the `~halotools.mock_observables.wp` function is not what you want. To perform such a calculation, refer to the appropriate function of the Corrfunc code written by Manodeep Sinha, available at https://github.com/manodeep/Corrfunc, which *can* be used to calculate projected clustering from a set of observational data. Example calls to the `~halotools.mock_observables.wp` function appear in the documentation below. See the :ref:`mock_obs_pos_formatting` documentation page for instructions on how to transform your coordinate position arrays into the format accepted by the ``sample1`` and ``sample2`` arguments. See also :ref:`galaxy_catalog_analysis_tutorial4` for a step-by-step tutorial on how to use this function on a mock galaxy catalog. Parameters ---------- sample1 : array_like Npts1 x 3 numpy array containing 3-D positions of points. See the :ref:`mock_obs_pos_formatting` documentation page, or the Examples section below, for instructions on how to transform your coordinate position arrays into the format accepted by the ``sample1`` and ``sample2`` arguments. Length units are comoving and assumed to be in Mpc/h, here and throughout Halotools. rp_bins : array_like array of boundaries defining the radial bins perpendicular to the LOS in which pairs are counted. Length units are comoving and assumed to be in Mpc/h, here and throughout Halotools. pi_max : float maximum LOS distance defining the projection integral length-scale in the z-dimension. Length units are comoving and assumed to be in Mpc/h, here and throughout Halotools. sample2 : array_like, optional Npts2 x 3 array containing 3-D positions of points. Passing ``sample2`` as an input permits the calculation of the cross-correlation function. Default is None, in which case only the auto-correlation function will be calculated. randoms : array_like, optional Nran x 3 array containing 3-D positions of randomly distributed points. If no randoms are provided (the default option), calculation of the tpcf can proceed using analytical randoms (only valid for periodic boundary conditions). period : array_like, optional Length-3 sequence defining the periodic boundary conditions in each dimension. If you instead provide a single scalar, Lbox, period is assumed to be the same in all Cartesian directions. If set to None (the default option), PBCs are set to infinity, in which case ``randoms`` must be provided. Length units are comoving and assumed to be in Mpc/h, here and throughout Halotools. do_auto : boolean, optional Boolean determines whether the auto-correlation function will be calculated and returned. Default is True. do_cross : boolean, optional Boolean determines whether the cross-correlation function will be calculated and returned. Only relevant when ``sample2`` is also provided. Default is True for the case where ``sample2`` is provided, otherwise False. estimator : string, optional Statistical estimator for the tpcf. Options are 'Natural', 'Davis-Peebles', 'Hewett' , 'Hamilton', 'Landy-Szalay' Default is ``Natural``. num_threads : int, optional Number of threads to use in calculation, where parallelization is performed using the python ``multiprocessing`` module. Default is 1 for a purely serial calculation, in which case a multiprocessing Pool object will never be instantiated. A string 'max' may be used to indicate that the pair counters should use all available cores on the machine. approx_cell1_size : array_like, optional Length-3 array serving as a guess for the optimal manner by how points will be apportioned into subvolumes of the simulation box. The optimum choice unavoidably depends on the specs of your machine. Default choice is to use Lbox/10 in each dimension, which will return reasonable result performance for most use-cases. Performance can vary sensitively with this parameter, so it is highly recommended that you experiment with this parameter when carrying out performance-critical calculations. approx_cell2_size : array_like, optional Analogous to ``approx_cell1_size``, but for sample2. See comments for ``approx_cell1_size`` for details. approx_cellran_size : array_like, optional Analogous to ``approx_cell1_size``, but for randoms. See comments for ``approx_cell1_size`` for details. seed : int, optional Random number seed used to randomly downsample data, if applicable. Default is None, in which case downsampling will be stochastic. Returns ------- correlation_function(s) : numpy.array *len(rp_bins)-1* length array containing the correlation function :math:`w_p(r_p)` computed in each of the bins defined by input ``rp_bins``. If ``sample2`` is not None (and not exactly the same as ``sample1``), three arrays of length *len(rp_bins)-1* are returned: .. math:: w_{p11}(r_p), \ w_{p12}(r_p), \ w_{p22}(r_p), the autocorrelation of ``sample1``, the cross-correlation between ``sample1`` and ``sample2``, and the autocorrelation of ``sample2``. If ``do_auto`` or ``do_cross`` is set to False, the appropriate result(s) is not returned. Notes ----- The projected correlation function is calculated by integrating the redshift space two point correlation function using `~halotools.mock_observables.rp_pi_tpcf`: .. math:: w_p(r_p) = \int_0^{\pi_{\rm max}}2.0\xi(r_p,\pi)\mathrm{d}\pi where :math:`\pi_{\rm max}` is ``pi_max`` and :math:`\xi(r_p,\pi)` is the redshift space correlation function. For a higher-performance implementation of the wp function, see the Corrfunc code written by Manodeep Sinha, available at https://github.com/manodeep/Corrfunc. Examples -------- For demonstration purposes we create a randomly distributed set of points within a periodic cube with Lbox = 250 Mpc/h. >>> Npts = 1000 >>> Lbox = 250. >>> x = np.random.uniform(0, Lbox, Npts) >>> y = np.random.uniform(0, Lbox, Npts) >>> z = np.random.uniform(0, Lbox, Npts) We transform our *x, y, z* points into the array shape used by the pair-counter by taking the transpose of the result of `numpy.vstack`. This boilerplate transformation is used throughout the `~halotools.mock_observables` sub-package: >>> coords = np.vstack((x,y,z)).T Alternatively, you may use the `~halotools.mock_observables.return_xyz_formatted_array` convenience function for this same purpose, which provides additional wrapper behavior around `numpy.vstack` such as placing points into redshift-space. >>> rp_bins = np.logspace(-1,1,10) >>> pi_max = 10 >>> xi = wp(coords, rp_bins, pi_max, period=Lbox) See also -------- :ref:`galaxy_catalog_analysis_tutorial4` """ # define the volume to search for pairs pi_max = float(pi_max) pi_bins = np.array([0.0, pi_max]) # process input parameters function_args = (sample1, rp_bins, pi_bins, sample2, randoms, period, do_auto, do_cross, estimator, num_threads, approx_cell1_size, approx_cell2_size, approx_cellran_size, seed) sample1, rp_bins, pi_bins, sample2, randoms, period, do_auto, do_cross, num_threads,\ _sample1_is_sample2, PBCs = _rp_pi_tpcf_process_args(*function_args) if _sample1_is_sample2: sample2 = None # pass the arguments into the redshift space TPCF function result = rp_pi_tpcf(sample1, rp_bins=rp_bins, pi_bins=pi_bins, sample2=sample2, randoms=randoms, period=period, do_auto=do_auto, do_cross=do_cross, estimator=estimator, num_threads=num_threads, approx_cell1_size=approx_cell1_size, approx_cell2_size=approx_cell2_size, approx_cellran_size=approx_cellran_size) # return the results. if _sample1_is_sample2: D1D1 = result[:, 0] wp_D1D1 = 2.0*D1D1*pi_max return wp_D1D1 else: if (do_auto is True) & (do_cross is True): D1D1 = result[0][:, 0] D1D2 = result[1][:, 0] D2D2 = result[2][:, 0] wp_D1D1 = 2.0*D1D1*pi_max wp_D1D2 = 2.0*D1D2*pi_max wp_D2D2 = 2.0*D2D2*pi_max return wp_D1D1, wp_D1D2, wp_D2D2 elif (do_auto is True) & (do_cross is False): D1D1 = result[0][:, 0] D2D2 = result[1][:, 0] wp_D1D1 = 2.0*D1D1*pi_max wp_D2D2 = 2.0*D2D2*pi_max return wp_D1D1, wp_D2D2 elif (do_auto is False) & (do_cross is True): D1D2 = result[:, 0] wp_D1D2 = 2.0*D1D2*pi_max return wp_D1D2
