From Reed $$f(x) = \frac{\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}\left[A(\alpha,\nu,\tau^2)x^{-\alpha-1}\Phi\left(\frac{\log x-\nu-\alpha \tau^2}{\tau} \right)+A(-\beta,\nu,\tau^2)x^{\beta-1}\Phi^c\left(\frac{\log x-\nu+\beta \tau^2}{\tau} \right)\right]$$ where $A(\theta,\nu,\tau^2) = \exp\left(\theta \nu + \theta^2\tau^2/2\right)$. Parameter shapes are something like

  • $\nu$ is like the mean of the lognormal
  • $\alpha,\beta$ are the PL slopes of the tails
  • $\tau^2$ is the precision of the normal

In [13]:
def dpln(x,alpha=1,beta=0.5,nu=-1,tau2=1):
    A1 = np.exp(alpha*nu+alpha**2*tau2/2)
    A2 = np.exp(-beta*nu+beta**2*tau2/2)
    term1 = A1*x**(-alpha-1)*norm.cdf((np.log(x)-nu-alpha*tau2)/tau2**0.5)
    term2 = A2*x**(beta-1)*norm.sf((np.log(x)-nu+beta*tau2)/tau2**0.5)
    fofx = alpha*beta/(alpha+beta)*(term2+term1)
    return fofx

This also suggests the Power-log normal, which is just one side of the equation (and also likely needs a proper normalization). $$f(x) = \alpha x^{-\alpha-1}\Phi\left(\frac{\log x-\nu-\alpha \tau^2}{\tau} \right)$$


In [27]:
def pln(x,alpha=1,tau2=1,nu=1):
    A1 = np.exp(alpha*nu+alpha**2*tau2/2)
    fofx = alpha*x**(-alpha-1)*norm.cdf((np.log(x)-nu-alpha*tau2)/tau2**0.5)
    return fofx

Using the scipy rv_continuous class, we can define dPlN as a subclass.

Let's load in some data to test it...


In [51]:
from astropy.io.fits import getdata
img = getdata("../testingdata/hd22.13co.intintensity.fits")
data = img[np.isfinite(img)]

scipy's general definitions are a little weird, and dpln will likely need to be adjusted to some degree (like doing away with nu and tau2 in favour of the built-ins). For now, I've found it necessary to freeze the loc parameter to zero. Also parameter constraints should assist with the fitting.


In [65]:
fit = dpln.fit(data, floc=0.0, fscale=1.0)
print(fit)

How did it do?


In [66]:
plt.hist(data, bins=100, normed=1)
print(dpln.ppf(0.05, *fit), dpln.ppf(0.95, *fit))
x = np.linspace(dpln.ppf(0.05, *fit), dpln.ppf(0.95, *fit), 1000)
plt.plot(x, dpln.pdf(x, *fit))

Clearly, there's still some issues with this fit... Now try the single powerlaw form.
