最后我使用了@sascha的建议。我查看了this维基百科文章和Numpy源代码,发现了这个randomkit.c文件,它实现了函数rk_gauss(它实现了Box-Muller变换)、rk_double和{}(它实现了模拟均匀分布随机变量的Mersenne Twister随机数生成器,由Box-Muller变换所需)。在
然后,我从here改编了Mersenne扭曲器生成器,并实现了Box-Muller变换来模拟高斯(关于随机扭曲生成器here)的更多信息。在
下面是我最后编写的代码:import numpy as np
from datetime import datetime
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
class Distribution():
def __init__(self):
pass
def plot(self, number_of_samples=100000):
# the histogram of the data
n, bins, patches = plt.hist([self.sample() for i in range(number_of_samples)], 100, normed=1, facecolor='g', alpha=0.75)
plt.show()
def sample(self):
# dummy sample function (to be overridden)
return 1
class Uniform_distribution(Distribution):
# Create a length 624 list to store the state of the generator
MT = [0 for i in xrange(624)]
index = 0
# To get last 32 bits
bitmask_1 = (2 ** 32) - 1
# To get 32. bit
bitmask_2 = 2 ** 31
# To get last 31 bits
bitmask_3 = (2 ** 31) - 1
def __init__(self, seed):
self.initialize_generator(seed)
def initialize_generator(self, seed):
"Initialize the generator from a seed"
global MT
global bitmask_1
MT[0] = seed
for i in xrange(1,624):
MT[i] = ((1812433253 * MT[i-1]) ^ ((MT[i-1] >> 30) + i)) & bitmask_1
def generate_numbers(self):
"Generate an array of 624 untempered numbers"
global MT
for i in xrange(624):
y = (MT[i] & bitmask_2) + (MT[(i + 1 ) % 624] & bitmask_3)
MT[i] = MT[(i + 397) % 624] ^ (y >> 1)
if y % 2 != 0:
MT[i] ^= 2567483615
def sample(self):
"""

"""
global index
global MT
if index == 0:
self.generate_numbers()
y = MT[index]
y ^= y >> 11
y ^= (y << 7) & 2636928640
y ^= (y << 15) & 4022730752
y ^= y >> 18
index = (index + 1) % 624
# divide by 4294967296, which is the largest 32 bit number
# to normalize the output value to the range [0,1]
return y*1.0/4294967296
class Norm(Distribution):
def __init__(self, mu=0, sigma_sq=1):
self.mu = mu
self.sigma_sq = sigma_sq
self.uniform_distribution_1 = Uniform_distribution(datetime.now().microsecond)
self.uniform_distribution_2 = Uniform_distribution(datetime.now().microsecond)
# some initialization if necessary
def sample(self):
# generate a sample, where the value of the sample being generated
# is distributed according a normal distribution with a particular
# mean and variance
u = self.uniform_distribution_1.sample()
v = self.uniform_distribution_2.sample()
return ((self.sigma_sq**0.5)*((-2*np.log(u))**0.5)*np.cos(2*np.pi*v)) + self.mu
这是完美的工作,并产生一个相当好的高斯
