Access greenspline's model coefficients

@pwessel : Is it worth implementing into gmt with an extra option now that @wsja has basically done it?

Looking at this, could your modnorm value be added as a column to the output file that -E sets? Would be pretty simple for me to add that, possibly via a -E modifier.

But first, why were you unable to use -C+f?

Append +f file to save the eigenvalues to the specified file for further analysis

The eigenvalues is not what I need, I need the alphas, dependent on n_use.

From C+f I get what I think would be what be the singular values (The diagonal elements of S, from G = USV^T; they are in the 1e18 - 1e0 range. I would expect the alphas to span at most 5 or 6 orders of magnitude). Moreover, I only get one set of e values (e = number of data points = number of model parameters), not e times e.

Yes, that would probably be the easiest one. In fact, two extra columns would be nice: model norm (as modnorm, above) and data norm (with the weights applied just as in the misfit function).

OK, got you this time. Let me see if I can whip out a branch for your testing,

I dont know what you mean here. obs is an array.

obs[k] * obs[k]

OK, that is what I did. See if you can test this branch and comment on what is missing: https://github.com/GenericMappingTools/gmt/pull/7358

I think there is some syntactical mishap:

Should it be:

-E+nfile (this throws an: [Session greenspline (0)]: Error returned from GMT API: GMT_ERROR_ON_FOPEN (15))

or

-Efile+n (which does not recognize the +n flag, but simply appends an “+n” to the file name)

Syntax is

-E[misfitfile][+n]

There is no modifier to set the filename (existing syntax) but you gotta append the new modifier +n if you want effect.

Yes, I understand. However, this is not what the current implementation is doing. When writing:

greenspline $dep -G$svd -L $R -Sp -Z2 -I$I -C+c -W -Emisfit.dat+n

gmt creates a file called “misfit.dat+n”, without any extra column. The +n modifier is currently not recognized, but appended to the filename.

Are you sure you have checked out the branch green-modnorm? Or are you rebuilding master which will not do anything.?

$ git branch
  * green-modnorm
    master
$ cd build
$ cmake --build . --target install

Where my ConfigUser.cmake has:

set (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX /home/myusername/.local)
set (GMT_INSTALL_MODULE_LINKS TRUE)

and

$ which greenspline
/home/myusername/.local/bin/greenspline

This previously worked well with my local commits and greenspline was the (almost) only thing recompiling after I pulled in your changes. Am I doing anything incorrectly?

My output is this (note version and synopsis. Not I have nothing to run it on so cannot say if you are wrong but the code looks for +n and strips it off like we do in lots of places in Gmt;

gmt greenspline -

I confirm I got the same version and usage.

dep.dat could be:

and

I=0.05
G=tmp.grd
greenspline dep.dat -G$G -L $R -Sp -Z2 -I$I -C+c -W -Emisfit.dat+n

would reproduce the problem on my side.

yep, No coffee == more likely to do copy/paste bugs. do a git pull

Thanks.

I now got the extra column, but it only holds 0’s, which can’t be right. I’d expect monotonically increasing values.

I suppose:

S->data[4][e] = modnorm;	/* Model norm at this point */

should only be executed when the for-loop has terminated?
– I just tested it — Nope :roll_eyes:

modnorm itself is having a value and is increasing, though, just not written to file.

Probably my error. See if things at line 2649 and ~2680 are now correct for your cumulative sum. There is obviously something I am blind too…

I do not see a new commit right now.
