我将编辑此答案,提供一个更一般的示例,说明如何使用scipy的通用optimize.minimize方法以及scipy的optimize.least_squares方法来解决此问题。
首先让我们设置问题:
import numpy as np
import scipy.optimize
def our_function(coeff, data):
"""
The function we care to optimize.
Args:
coeff (np.ndarray): are the parameters that we care to optimize.
data (np.ndarray): the input data
"""
A, B, C = coeff
x, y, z = data.T
return (x - A + y - B) / 2 + np.sqrt(((x - A - y + B) / 2) ** 2 + C * z ** 2)
data = np.array([
[-0.071, -0.85, 0.401],
[-0.138, -1.111, 0.494],
[-0.317, -0.317, -0.317],
[-0.351, -2.048, 0.848]
])
target = 0
num_coeff = 3
coeff_0 = np.ones(num_coeff)
这并不是严格的最小二乘法,但可以尝试类似于以下方法:
这种解决方案就像用大锤子敲击问题。可能有一种方法可以使用最小二乘法通过SVD求解器更有效地获得答案,但如果您只是寻找答案,scipy.optimize.minimize将为您找到一个。
def general_objective(coeff, data, target):
"""
General function that simply returns a value to be minimized.
The coeff will be modified to minimize whatever the output of this function
may be.
"""
if np.any(coeff < 0):
return np.inf
prediction = our_function(coeff, data)
losses = (prediction - target) ** 2
loss = losses.sum()
return loss
general_result = scipy.optimize.minimize(general_objective, coeff_0,
method='Nelder-Mead',
args=(data, target))
coeff = general_result.x
general_output = our_function(coeff, data)
print('====================')
print('general_result =\n%s' % (general_result,))
print('---------------------')
print('general_output = %r' % (general_output,))
print('====================')
输出结果如下:
====================
general_result =
final_simplex: (array([[ 2.45700466e-01, 7.93719271e-09, 1.71257109e+00],
[ 2.45692680e-01, 3.31991619e-08, 1.71255150e+00],

---------------------
general_output = array([ 0.00527974, -0.00561568, -0.00719941, 0.00357748])
====================
我在文档中发现,要将其适应于实际的最小二乘法,只需指定计算残差的函数。
def least_squares_residuals(coeff, data, target):
"""
Function that returns the vector of residuals between the predicted values
and the target value. Here we want each predicted value to be close to zero
"""
A, B, C = coeff
x, y, z = data.T
prediction = our_function(coeff, data)
vector_of_residuals = (prediction - target)
return vector_of_residuals
bound_gt = np.full(shape=num_coeff, fill_value=0, dtype=np.float)
bound_lt = np.full(shape=num_coeff, fill_value=np.inf, dtype=np.float)
bounds = (bound_gt, bound_lt)
lst_sqrs_result = scipy.optimize.least_squares(least_squares_residuals, coeff_0,
args=(data, target), bounds=bounds)
coeff = lst_sqrs_result.x
lst_sqrs_output = our_function(coeff, data)
print('====================')
print('lst_sqrs_result =\n%s' % (lst_sqrs_result,))
print('---------------------')
print('lst_sqrs_output = %r' % (lst_sqrs_output,))
print('====================')
这里的输出是:
