Allowed file formats
pesummary is able to read in a multitude of file formats through its universal read function. Below we document the allowed file formats.
dat
A dat file is read in through the pesummary.core.file.formats.dat.read_dat
function. This function loads a dat file through the
np.genfromtxt
function. By default, we assume delimiter=None, meaning that each line is
split by a single or multiple white spaces. Each column is assumed to contain
samples drawn from a single posterior distribution.
csv
A csv file is read in through the pesummary.core.file.formats.csv.read_csv
function. This function loads a csv file through the
np.genfromtxt
function with delimiter=','. Each column is assumed to contain
samples drawn from a single posterior distribution.
json
A json file is read in through the pesummary.core.file.formats.json.read_json
function. By default, we assume path_to_samples=None meaning that the json
file is recursively searched to find a posterior or posterior_samples group.
Each key of this group should be a parameter name and value, samples drawn from
the posterior distribution.
hdf5
A hdf5 file is read in through the pesummary.core.file.formats.hdf5.read_hdf5
function. By default, we assume path_to_samples=None meaning that the hdf5
file is recursively searched to find a posterior or posterior_samples group.
Within this group, posterior samples should be stored stored as a
numpy structured array
with columns corresponding to samples drawn from a single posterior distribution.
sql
An sql database is read in through the
pesummary.core.file.formats.sql.read_sql function. If
path_to_samples=None all tables in the sql database are
extracted. Parameter names are the column descriptions and each
column corresponds to the samples drawn from a single posterior distribution.
- pesummary.core.file.formats.sql.read_sql(path, path_to_samples=None, remove_row_column='ROW', **kwargs)[source]
Grab the parameters and samples in an sql database file
- Parameters:
path (str) – path to the result file you wish to read in
path_to_samples (str/list, optional) – table or list of tables that you wish to load
remove_row_column (str, optional) – remove the column with name ‘remove_row_column’ which indicates the row. Default ‘ROW’
npy
A npy file is read in through the
pesummary.core.file.formats.numpy.read_numpy function. This function loads a
npy file through the
np.load
function. The data stored in the npy file must be a
Structured array
with each column assumed to contain samples drawn from a single posterior
distributions.
bilby
A file produced by the bilby parameter estimation code, is read in through the pesummary.core.file.formats.bilby.read_bilby function. We use the bilby.core.result.read_in_result function to load the file. Posterior samples are then extracted through the .posterior property.
- pesummary.core.file.formats.bilby.read_bilby(path, disable_prior=False, complex_params=[], latex_dict={'220_quasinormal_mode_frequency': '$f_{220} [\\mathrm{Hz}]$', 'E1_matched_filter_snr_abs':
