Functional Posterior Plotter
copied from cf-staging / fgivenxfgivenx is a python package for plotting posteriors of functions. It is currently used in astronomy, but will be of use to any scientists performing Bayesian analyses which have predictive posteriors that are functions.
This package allows one to plot a predictive posterior of a function,
dependent on sampled parameters.
We assume one has a Bayesian posterior Post(theta|D,M) described by a
set of posterior samples {theta_i}~Post.
If there is a function parameterised by theta y=f(x;theta), then this
script will produce a contour plot of the conditional posterior
P(y|x,D,M) in the (x,y) plane.
The driving routines are fgivenx.plot_contours, fgivenx.plot_lines
and fgivenx.plot_dkl.
The code is compatible with getdist, and has a loading function
provided by fgivenx.samples_from_getdist_chains.
