I have come across your FATs paper (in a very different field!) while developing metrics for a Fisher's Information time-series on ecological data. I'm looking at the Variability index n^e (pictured) and the python code provided.
In the code the denominator has a term N ** 2 which I don't see in the pictured equation. I'm recoding the equation in R and am wondering where the N ** 2 term comes from?
If you are wondering how someone in ecology ended up in the astrophysics literature, I'm trying to condense information that looks like this (shortened model data sample):
into a suite of single metrics as there will be a thousand model runs to compare.
Hello Isadora,
I have come across your FATs paper (in a very different field!) while developing metrics for a Fisher's Information time-series on ecological data. I'm looking at the Variability index n^e (pictured) and the python code provided.
I have a question about one line in the code that is the final calculation: https://github.com/isadoranun/FATS/blob/master/FATS/FeatureFunctionLib.py#L734
In the code the denominator has a term
N ** 2
which I don't see in the pictured equation. I'm recoding the equation in R and am wondering where theN ** 2
term comes from?If you are wondering how someone in ecology ended up in the astrophysics literature, I'm trying to condense information that looks like this (shortened model data sample):
into a suite of single metrics as there will be a thousand model runs to compare.
Thanks very much! Quinn
