fitbenchmarking.controllers.mantid_controller module¶

Implements a controller for the Mantid fitting software.

class fitbenchmarking.controllers.mantid_controller.MantidController(problem)¶

Controller for the Mantid fitting software.

Mantid requires subscribing a custom function in a predefined format, so this controller creates that in setup.

cleanup()¶: Convert the result to a numpy array and populate the variables results will be read from.

eval_chisq(params, x=None, y=None, e=None)¶

Computes the chisq value. If multi-fit inputs will be lists and this will return a list of chi squared of params[i], x[i], y[i], and e[i].

Parameters:	params (list of float or list of list of float) – The parameters to calculate residuals for x (numpy array or list of numpy arrays, optional) – x data points, defaults to self.data_x y (numpy array or list of numpy arrays, optional) – y data points, defaults to self.data_y e (numpy array or list of numpy arrays, optional) – error at each data point, defaults to self.data_e
Returns:	The sum of squares of residuals for the datapoints at the given parameters
Return type:	numpy array

setup()¶

Setup problem ready to run with Mantid.

Adds a custom function to Mantid for calling in fit().
