Quantify the difference between two arbitrary curves in space
Project description
Quantify the difference between two arbitrary curves
Curves in this case are: - discretized by inidviudal data points - ordered from a beginning to an ending
Consider the following two curves. We want to quantify how different the Numerical curve is from the Experimental curve. Notice how there are no concurrent Stress or Strain values in the two curves. Additionally one curve has more data points than the other curves.
Image of two different curves
In the ideal case the Numerical curve would match the Experimental curve exactly. This means that the two curves would appear directly on top of each other. Our measures of similarity would return a zero distance between two curves that were on top of each other.
Methods covered
This library includes the following methods to quantify the difference (or similarity) between two curves:
Partial Curve Mappingx (PCM) method: Matches the area of a subset between the two curves [1]
Area methodx: An algorithm for calculating the Area between two curves in 2D space [2]
Discrete Fréchet distancey: The shortest distance in-between two curves, where you are allowed to very the speed at which you travel along each curve independently (walking dog problem) [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
Curve Lengthx method: Assumes that the only true independent variable of the curves is the arc-length distance along the curve from the origin [9, 10]
Dynamic Time Warpingy (DTW): A non-metric distance between two time-series curves that has been proven useful for a variety of applications [11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16]
x denotes methods created specifically for material parameter identification
y denotes that the method implemented in this library supports N-D data!
Installation

or clone and install from source.
git clone https://github.com/cjekel/Similarity_measures_for_identifying_material_parameters_from_hysteresis_loops_using_inverse_analysis [sudo] pip install ./Similarity_measures_for_identifying_material_parameters_from_hysteresis_loops_using_inverse_analysis
Example useage
This shows you how to compute the various similarity measures
import numpy as np import similaritymeasures import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # Generate random experimental data x = np.random.random(100) y = np.random.random(100) exp_data = np.zeros((100, 2)) exp_data[:, 0] = x exp_data[:, 1] = y # Generate random numerical data x = np.random.random(100) y = np.random.random(100) num_data = np.zeros((100, 2)) num_data[:, 0] = x num_data[:, 1] = y # quantify the difference between the two curves using PCM pcm = similaritymeasures.pcm(exp_data, num_data) # quantify the difference between the two curves using # Discrete Frechet distance df = similaritymeasures.frechet_dist(exp_data, num_data) # quantify the difference between the two curves using # area between two curves area = similaritymeasures.area_between_two_curves(exp_data, num_data) # quantify the difference between the two curves using # Curve Length based similarity measure cl = similaritymeasures.curve_length_measure(exp_data, num_data) # quantify the difference between the two curves using # Dynamic Time Warping distance dtw, d = similaritymeasures.dtw(exp_data, num_data) # print the results print(pcm, df, area, cl, dtw) # plot the data plt.figure() plt.plot(exp_data[:, 0], exp_data[:, 1]) plt.plot(num_data[:, 0], num_data[:, 1]) plt.show()
If you are interested in setting up an optimization problem using these measures, check out this Jupyter Notebook which replicates Section 3.2 from [2].
