For Change Control Board: Change Request Review

The following review must be completed by an authorized member of the Change Control Board.

• [x] 1. Review all computer code.
• [x] 2. If any changes occur to the input syntax, there must be an accompanying change to the user manual and xsd schema. If the input syntax change deprecates existing input files, a conversion script needs to be added (see Conversion Scripts).
• [x] 3. Make sure the Python code and commenting standards are respected (camelBack, etc.) - See on the wiki for details.
• [x] 4. Automated Tests should pass, including run_tests, pylint, manual building and xsd tests. If there are changes to Simulation.py or JobHandler.py the qsub tests must pass.
• [x] 5. If significant functionality is added, there must be tests added to check this. Tests should cover all possible options. Multiple short tests are preferred over one large test. If new development on the internal JobHandler parallel system is performed, a cluster test must be added setting, in XML block, the node <internalParallel> to True.
• [x] 6. If the change modifies or adds a requirement or a requirement based test case, the Change Control Board's Chair or designee also needs to approve the change. The requirements and the requirements test shall be in sync.
• [x] 7. The merge request must reference an issue. If the issue is closed, the issue close checklist shall be done.
• [x] 8. If an analytic test is changed/added is the the analytic documentation updated/added?
• [x] 9. If any test used as a basis for documentation examples (currently found in raven/tests/framework/user_guide and raven/docs/workshop) have been changed, the associated documentation must be reviewed and assured the text matches the example.

@joshua-cogliati-inl @j-bryan I'm stumped as to why the RAVEN tests are failing on a PR that only has a submodule change. Is there a possibility the failing tests have to do with the recent Distribution changes?

@joshua-cogliati-inl @j-bryan I'm stumped as to why the RAVEN tests are failing on a PR that only has a submodule change. Is there a possibility the failing tests have to do with the recent Distribution changes?

I am wondering if there is a problem with a package. As in here is code that causes this error:

@wangcj05 this looks like an issue with the PCA-reduced multivariate normal not having a symmetric positive semi-definite input matrix. This seems to be a recent failure due to a library change. Did you have to wrestle with this SPD matrix input while setting up this problem?

[j-bryan]

@PaulTalbot-INL There's a try/except block at that part of DistributionsND.py that would catch that ValueError that's initially thrown due to that covariance matrix not being SPD (a planned thing for some covariance matrices that don't play nicely with the scipy.stats.multivariate_normal implementation). I think @joshua-cogliati-inl is on to something; the issue seems to be deeper down in scipy's interaction with LAPACK.

[PaulTalbot-INL]

Ah, yes, Joshua noted in internal chat: """ The error is caught, but then the code to deal with it is failing:

  except ValueError:
      self._distribution = scipy.stats.multivariate_normal(mean=np.zeros(self._rank), cov=np.eye(self._rank))
      self._needsTransform = True

because scipy/lapack are not handling a mean=0, cov=[[1]] distribution. """

@PaulTalbot-INL In the previous process, we do SVD decomposition first, and then using single variate normal distribution for each latent variable, in this case, we do not require the COV to be SPD. But in general, if you sample it directly from MVN, I think a SPD COV is required.

This is the pull request that updated lapack in conda: https://github.com/conda-forge/blas-feedstock/pull/113

[joshua-cogliati-inl]

From the other pull request larsoner said : If you update to the latest SciPy build on conda-forge (following https://github.com/conda-forge/scipy-feedstock/pull/268) or downgrade to OpenBLAS 0.3.25 you should be okay I think

[joshua-cogliati-inl]

So I am guessing that the new version should show up in https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/liblapack/files real soon now?

[j-bryan]

I hope so. Even the internal multivariate_normal object in scipy is failing. Seems to affect only 1-dimensional instantiations of the class, and the default is a 1-dimensional N(0, 1) distribution.

Testing if a newer version of scipy will fix this: https://github.com/idaholab/raven/pull/2250
