pub fn ensemble(&self) -> &E

Current state of the Ensemble

pub fn energy(&self) -> &T

Energy of ensemble

• assuming energy_fn (see self.entropic_step etc.) is deterministic and will allways give the same result for the same ensemble, this returns the energy of the current ensemble

pub fn step_count(&self) -> usize

Number of entropic steps done until now

• will be reset by self.refine_estimate

pub fn step_goal(&self) -> usize

Number of entropic steps to be performed

• if self was created from WangLandauAdaptive, step_goal will be equal to the number of WangLandau steps, that were performed

pub fn set_step_goal(&mut self, step_goal: usize)

Number of entropic steps to be performed

• set the number of steps to be performed by entropic sampling

pub fn min_step_size(&self) -> usize

pub fn max_step_size(&self) -> usize

Largest possible markov step (m_steps of MarkovChain trait) by entropic step

pub fn best_of_steps(&self) -> &Vec<usize>

Currently used best of

• might have length 0, if statistics are still being gathered
• otherwise this contains the step sizes, from which the next stepsize is drawn uniformly

pub fn fraction_accepted_current(&self) -> f64

Fraction of steps accepted since the statistics were reset the last time

• (steps accepted since last reset) / (steps since last reset)
• NaN if no steps were performed yet

Fraction of steps accepted since the creation of self

• NaN if no steps were performed yet

pub fn log_density_estimate(&self) -> &Vec<f64>

• returns the (non normalized) log_density estimate log(P(E)), with which the simulation was started
• if you created this from a WangLandau simulation, this is the result of the WangLandau Simulation

pub fn log_density_refined(&self) -> Vec<f64>

where Hist: Histogram,

calculates the (non normalized) log_density estimate log(P(E)) according to the paper

pub fn hist(&self) -> &Hist

Return current state of histogram

impl<Hist, R, E, S, Res, T> EntropicSamplingAdaptive<Hist, R, E, S, Res, T>

where Hist: Histogram, R: Rng,

pub fn from_wl_adaptive( wl: WangLandauAdaptive<Hist, R, E, S, Res, T> ) -> Result<Self, EntropicErrors>

Creates EntropicSamplingAdaptive from a WangLandauAdaptive state

• WangLandauAdaptive state needs to be valid, i.e., you must have called one of the init* methods

• this ensures, that the members old_energy and old_bin are not None

pub fn refine_estimate(&mut self) -> Vec<f64>

Calculates self.log_density_refined and uses that as estimate for a the entropic sampling simulation

• returns old estimate

prepares self for a new entropic simulation

• sets new estimate for log(P(E))
• resets statistic gathering
• resets step_count

pub fn set_adjust_bestof_every(&mut self, adjust_bestof_every: usize)

How often to adjust bestof_steps?

• if you try to set a value smaller 10, it will be set to 10
• will reevalute the statistics every adjust_bestof_every steps,

• this will not start new statistics gathering but just trigger a reevaluation of the gathered statistics (should be O(max_stepsize - min_stepsize))

pub fn is_rebuilding_statistics(&self) -> bool

Is the simulation in the process of rebuilding the statistics, i.e., is it currently trying many differnt step sizes?

pub fn estimate_statistics(&self) -> Result<Vec<f64>, WangLandauErrors>

• contains list of estimated probabilities for accepting a step of corresponding step size
• list[i] corresponds to step size i + self.min_step

pub unsafe fn entropic_sampling_while_unsafe<F, G, W>( &mut self, energy_fn: F, print_fn: G, condition: W )

where F: FnMut(&mut E) -> Option<T>, G: FnMut(&Self), W: FnMut(&Self) -> bool,

Entropic sampling

• performs self.entropic_step(energy_fn) until condition is false
• Note: you have access to the current step_count (self.step_count())

Parameter

• energy_fn function calculating Some(energy) of the system or rather the Parameter of which you wish to obtain the probability distribution. If there are any states, for which the calculation is invalid, None should be returned
• steps resulting in ensembles for which energy_fn(&mut ensemble) is None will always be rejected
• Important energy_fn: should be the same as used for Wang Landau, otherwise the results will be wrong!
• print_fn: see below

Correlations

• if you want to measure correlations between “energy” and other measurable quantities, use print_fn, which will be called after each step - use this function to write to a file or whatever you desire
• Note: You do not have to recalculate the energy, if you need it in print_fn: just call self.energy()
• you have access to your ensemble with self.ensemble()
• if you do not need it, you can use |_|{} as print_fn

Safety

• While you do have mutable access to the ensemble, the energy function should not change the ensemble in a way, which affects the next calculation of the energy
• This is intended for usecases, where the energy calculation is more efficient with mutable access, e.g., through using a buffer stored in the ensemble
• Note: I chose to make this function unsafe to force users to aknowledge the (purely logical) limitations regarding the usage of the mutable ensemble. From a programming point of view this will not lead to any undefined behavior or such regardless of if the user fullfills the requirements
