amici.petab_simulate

Simulate a PEtab problem

Deprecated since version 0.21.0: Use amici.petab.simulator instead.

class amici.petab_simulate.PetabSimulator(*args, amici_model=None, **kwargs)[source]

Implementation of the PEtab Simulator class that uses AMICI.

__init__(*args, amici_model=None, **kwargs)[source]

Initialize the simulator.

Initialize the simulator with sufficient information to perform a simulation. If no working directory is specified, a temporary one is created.

Parameters:
  • petab_problem – A PEtab problem.

  • working_dir – All simulator-specific output files will be saved here. This directory and its contents may be modified and deleted, and should be considered ephemeral.

add_noise(simulation_df, noise_scaling_factor=1, **kwargs)

Add noise to simulated data.

Parameters:
  • simulation_df (pandas.core.frame.DataFrame) – A PEtab measurements table that contains simulated data.

  • noise_scaling_factor (float) – A multiplier of the scale of the noise distribution.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments are passed to sample_noise().

Return type:

pandas.core.frame.DataFrame

Returns:

Simulated data with noise, as a PEtab measurements table.

remove_working_dir(force=False, **kwargs)

Remove the simulator working directory, and all files within.

See the petab.simulate.Simulator.__init__() method arguments.

Parameters:
  • force (bool) – If True, the working directory is removed regardless of whether it is a temporary directory.

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments are passed to shutil.rmtree().

Return type:

None

simulate(noise=False, noise_scaling_factor=1, as_measurement=False, **kwargs)

Simulate a PEtab problem, optionally with noise.

Parameters:
  • noise (bool) – If True, noise is added to simulated data.

  • noise_scaling_factor (float) – A multiplier of the scale of the noise distribution.

  • as_measurement (bool) – Whether the data column is named petab.C.MEASUREMENT (True) or petab.C.SIMULATION (False).

  • **kwargs – Additional keyword arguments are passed to petab.simulate.Simulator.simulate_without_noise().

Return type:

pandas.core.frame.DataFrame

Returns:

Simulated data, as a PEtab measurements table.

simulate_without_noise(**kwargs)[source]

See petab.simulate.Simulator.simulate() docstring.

Additional keyword arguments can be supplied to specify arguments for the AMICI PEtab import, simulate, and export methods. See the docstrings for the respective methods for argument options: - amici.petab_import.import_petab_problem(), and - amici.petab_objective.simulate_petab().

Note that some arguments are expected to have already been specified in the Simulator constructor (including the PEtab problem).

Return type:

pandas.core.frame.DataFrame
