Astronomy Tutorial: exercise 1

Classification of photometric sources

usage: python exercise_01.py datadir

  - datadir is $TUTORIAL_DIR/data/sdss_colors
    This directory should contain the files:
       - sdssdr6_colors_class_train.npy
       - sdssdr6_colors_class.200000.npy

Description:
In the tutorial, we used a Naive Bayes Classifier to separate Quasars
And Stars.  In this exercise, we will extend this classification scheme
using Gaussian Mixture Models.

The Gaussian Naive Bayes method starts by fitting an N-dimensional gaussian
distribution to each class of data.  When a test point is evaluated, the
relative log-likelihood from each distribution is used to predict the most
likely value.  We're going to extend this by fitting a sum of gaussians to
each distribution.

There are several places in this file with code to be filled-in as part of
the exercise.  Each of these is labeled TODO below.

# Recreating Gaussian Naive Bayes
#
#   Here we will use Gaussian Mixture Models to duplicate our Gaussian
#   Naive Bayes results from earlier.  You'll create two sklearn.gmm.GMM()
#   classifier instances, named `clf_0` and `clf_1`.  Each should be
#   initialized with a single component, and diagonal covariance.
#   (hint: look at the doc string for sklearn.gmm.GMM to see how to set
#   this up).  The results should be compared to Gaussian Naive Bayes
#   to check if they're correct.
#
#   Objects to create:
#    - clf_0 : trained on the portion of the training data with y == 0
#    - clf_1 : trained on the portion of the training data with y == 1

# TODO:  compute clf_0, clf_1

# next we must construct the prior.  The prior is the fraction of training
# points of each type.
# 
# variables to compute:
#  - prior0 : fraction of training points with y == 0
#  - prior1 : fraction of training points with y == 1

# TODO:  compute prior0, prior1

# Now we use the prior and the classifiation to compute the log-likelihoods
#  of the cross-validation points.  The log likelihood is given by
#
#    logL(x) = clf.score(x) + log(prior)
#
#  You can use the function np.log() to compute the logarithm of the prior.
#  variables to compute:
#    logL : array, shape = (2, Ncrossval)
#            logL[0] is the log-likelihood for y == 0
#            logL[1] is the log-likelihood for y == 1
logL = None

# TODO:  compute logL

# the predicted value for each sample is the index with the largest
# log-likelihood.
y_pred = np.argmax(logL, 0)

# now we print the results.  We'll use the built-in classification
# report function in sklearn.metrics.  This computes the precision,
# recall, and f1-score for each class.

#   time, and will be dependent on the starting position.  Use the
