ibicus.utils StatisticalModel abstract-class

class ibicus.utils.StatisticalModel

Abstract functionality to wrap an arbitrary statistical model given by a fit-method, a cdf and a ppf.

This can be used to pass a self-defined model to a debiaser, that is then fitted and used at each location. In principle this is similar to scipy.stats.rv_continuous, however the user has the option to provide an own fit-method. Thus this is able to represent a broader class of statistical models.

Examples

gen_PrecipitationHurdleModel is a child-class of StatisticalModel used to generate a precipitation hurdle model. For example if we want to use a precipitation hurdle model in Quantile mapping, assuming a generalised gamma distribution for amounts we can do:

>>> hurdle_model = gen_PrecipitationHurdleModel(distribution = scipy.stats.gengamma)
>>> debiaser = QuantileMapping.from_variable("pr", distribution = hurdle_model)

Warning

This is an advanced feature and requires some knowledge of the workings of the debiaser and the statistical model passed/fitted. For example CDFt does not require a model as parameter and in ISIMIP pr values are split into zero and non-zero values prior to fitting: so Statistical Models do not need to account for the zero-character.

class ibicus.utils.gen_PrecipitationHurdleModel(distribution=<scipy.stats._continuous_distns.gamma_gen object>, fit_kwds={'floc': 0, 'fscale': None}, cdf_randomization=True)

Represents a precipitation hurdle model.

A hurdle-model is a two-step process: binomially it is determined if it rains (with probability \(p_0\) of no rain) and then we assume that theamounts follow a given distribution (often gamma) described by a cdf \(F_A\). Mathematically:

\[P(X = 0) = p_0,\]

class ibicus.utils.gen_PrecipitationGammaLeftCensoredModel(censoring_threshold=0.1, censor_in_ppf=True)

Represents a left censored precipitation gamma model.

A left censored gamma model is a gamma distribution where all values under a given threshold are censored: not observed. Those are represented by zero This is useful when a slightly higher threshold is used to account for the drizzle effect in climate models.

In the cdf before calculating all values below the censoring value are first randomized between (0, censoring_threshold). In the ppf values below the censoring_threshold are again set to zero. This handles possible inflation in quantile mapping by the censoring-value.
