redback.likelihoods.GaussianLikelihoodUniformXErrors

class redback.likelihoods.GaussianLikelihoodUniformXErrors(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any)

Bases: GaussianLikelihood

__init__(x: ndarray, y: ndarray, sigma: Union[float, None, ndarray], bin_size: Union[float, None, ndarray], function: callable, kwargs: Optional[dict] = None) → None

A general Gaussian likelihood with uniform errors in x- the parameters are inferred from the arguments of function. Takes into account the X errors with a Uniform likelihood between the bin high and bin low values. Note that the prior for the true x values must be uniform in this range!

Parameters:

• x (np.ndarray) – The x values.

• y (np.ndarray) – The y values.

• sigma (Union[float, None, np.ndarray]) – The standard deviation of the noise.

• bin_size (Union[float, None, np.ndarray]) – The bin sizes.

• function (callable) – The python function to fit to the data. Note, this must take the dependent variable as its first argument. The other arguments are will require a prior and will be sampled over (unless a fixed value is given).

• kwargs (dict) – Any additional keywords for ‘function’.

__call__(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) → Any

Call self as a function.

Methods

__init__(x, y, sigma, bin_size, function[, ...])	A general Gaussian likelihood with uniform errors in x- the parameters are inferred from the arguments of function.
log_likelihood()	return: The log-likelihood.
