Basic Example with Synthetic Data

Python Version License

This basic example contains synthetic data created for the porpouse of testing the tool during its development


Files in the data Folder

  • synthetic_data_ETP.txt: Synthetic data.

  • age_model_ETP.txt: Synthetic age-depth model that is adapted to the data.

  • La2010d_ecc3L.txt: Astronomical solution data (eccentricity component).


Execute the Example

Note

  • The folder examples has to bee in the same directory as the AstroGeoFit_tool.py file. If not, this will not work.

To run the example, open a terminal in the AstroGeoFit folder. Once this is open execute the following

python AstroGeoFit_tool.py --basic_example

This command will execute the significance test, the genetic algorithm fitting, the MCMC, and the MCMC weights calculation.

If you only want to run specific components (e.g., the genetic algorithm fitting and the MCMC), you can use:

python AstroGeoFit_tool.py ----basic_example -fit -mcmc

The full list of execution options can be found in AstroGeoFit Script Execution.


Visualization of the Results

To visualize the results, you can use the two Jupyter notebooks provided. To obtain the results of the basic_example data, just modify the variable configuration_file_path in the following way:

configuration_file_path = "basic_example"

And then the visualization notebook will be ready to be executed.

For a detailed guide on using the notebooks and interpreting the figures, please refer to Visualization of the Results Guide.
