desc.objectives.GoodCoordinates

class desc.objectives.GoodCoordinates(eq, sigma=1, target=None, bounds=None, weight=1, normalize=True, normalize_target=True, loss_function=None, deriv_mode='auto', grid=None, name='coordinate goodness', jac_chunk_size=None)Source

Target “good” coordinates, meaning non self-intersecting curves.

Uses a method by Z. Tecchiolli et al, minimizing

1/ρ² ||√g||² + σ ||𝐞ᵨ||²

where √g is the jacobian of the coordinate system and 𝐞ᵨ is the covariant radial basis vector.

Parameters:

• eq (Equilibrium) – Equilibrium that will be optimized to satisfy the Objective.

• sigma (float) – Relative weight between the Jacobian and radial terms.

• grid (Grid, optional) – Collocation grid containing the nodes to evaluate at.

• target ({float, ndarray}, optional) – Target value(s) of the objective. Only used if bounds is None. Must be broadcastable to Objective.dim_f. Defaults to target=0.

• bounds (tuple of {float, ndarray}, optional) – Lower and upper bounds on the objective. Overrides target. Both bounds must be broadcastable to Objective.dim_f. Defaults to target=0.

• weight ({float, ndarray}, optional) – Weighting to apply to the Objective, relative to other Objectives. Must be broadcastable to Objective.dim_f.

• normalize (bool, optional) – Whether to compute the error in physical units or non-dimensionalize.

• normalize_target (bool, optional) – Whether target and bounds should be normalized before comparing to computed values. If normalize is True and the target is in physical units, this should also be set to True.

• loss_function ({None, 'mean', 'min', 'max','sum'}, optional) – Loss function to apply to the objective values once computed. This loss function is called on the raw compute value, before any shifting, scaling, or normalization.

• deriv_mode ({"auto", "fwd", "rev"}) – Specify how to compute Jacobian matrix, either forward mode or reverse mode AD. auto selects forward or reverse mode based on the size of the input and output of the objective. Has no effect on self.grad or self.hess which always use reverse mode and forward over reverse mode respectively.

• name (str, optional) – Name of the objective.

• jac_chunk_size (int or auto, optional) – Will calculate the Jacobian jac_chunk_size columns at a time, instead of all at once. The memory usage of the Jacobian calculation is roughly memory usage = m0+m1*jac_chunk_size: the smaller the chunk size, the less memory the Jacobian calculation will require (with some baseline memory usage). The time it takes to compute the Jacobian is roughly t = t0+t1/jac_chunk_size so the larger the jac_chunk_size, the faster the calculation takes, at the cost of requiring more memory. If None, it will use the largest size i.e obj.dim_x. Can also help with Hessian computation memory, as Hessian is essentially jacfwd(jacrev(f)), and each of these operations may be chunked. Defaults to chunk_size=None. Note: When running on a CPU (not a GPU) on a HPC cluster, DESC is unable to accurately estimate the available device memory, so the auto chunk_size option will yield a larger chunk size than may be needed. It is recommended to manually choose a chunk_size if an OOM error is experienced in this case.
