Bases:
BaseSpace
,SerializableMixin
Define a space with the name (
obs
) of the axes (and it’s number) and possibly it’s limits. (deprecated arguments)Deprecated: SOME ARGUMENTS ARE DEPRECATED:
(rect_limits)
. They will be removed in a future version. Instructions for updating: Uselower
andupper
insteadA space can be thought of as coordinates, possibly with the definition of a range (limits). For most use-cases, it is sufficient to specify a
Space
via observables; simple string identifiers. They can be multidimensional.Observables are like the columns of a spreadsheet/dataframe, and are therefore needed for any object that does numerical operations or holds data in order to match the right axes. On object creation, the observables are assigned using a
Space
. This is often used as the default space of an object and can be used as the defaultnorm
, sampling limits etc.Axes are the same concept as observables, but numbers, indexes, and are used inside an object. There, axes 0 corresponds to the 0th data column we get (which corresponds to a certain observable).
- Parameters:
obs (ztyping.ObsTypeInput | None) – Observable of the space. Serves as the “variable”.
lower (ztyping.LimitsTypeInputV1 | None) – Lower and upper limits of the space, respectively. Each of them should be a scalar-like object.
upper (ztyping.LimitsTypeInputV1 | None) – Lower and upper limits of the space, respectively. Each of them should be a scalar-like object.
limits (ztyping.LimitsTypeInput | None) – A tuple-like object of the limits of the space. These are the lower and upper limits.
binning (ztyping.BinningTypeInput) – Binning of the space. Currently, only regular and variable binning with a name is supported. If an integer or a list of integers is given with lengths equal to the number of observables, it is interpreted as the number of bins and a regular binning is automatically created using the limits as the start and end points.
name (str | None) – Name of the space. Maybe has implications on the serialization and deserialization of the space. For a human-readable name, use the label.
- Raises
TypeError: If the axes in the binning do not have a name. ObsIncompatibleError: If the obs do not agree with the name of the binning. ShapeIncompatibleError: If the shape of the limits or the binnings do not match the shape of the obs.
- property rect_limits: ztyping.RectLimitsReturnType#
Return the rectangular limits as
np.ndarray``tf.Tensor
if they are set and not false. (deprecated)Deprecated: THIS FUNCTION IS DEPRECATED. It will be removed in a future version. Instructions for updating: Use for compatibility the v1.limits, v1.lower, v1.upper, as described here: zfit/zfit#533
The rectangular limits can be used for sampling. They do not in general represent the limits of the object as a functional limit can be set and to check if something is inside the limits, the method
inside()
should be used.In order to test if the limits are False or None, it is recommended to use the appropriate methods
limits_are_false
andlimits_are_set
.- Returns:
The lower and upper limits.
- Raises:
LimitsNotSpecifiedError – If there are not limits set or they are False.
- property rect_limits_np: ztyping.RectLimitsNPReturnType#
Return the rectangular limits as
np.ndarray
. Raise error if not possible. (deprecated)Deprecated: THIS FUNCTION IS DEPRECATED. It will be removed in a future version. Instructions for updating: Use for compatibility the v1.limits, v1.lower, v1.upper, as described here: zfit/zfit#533
Rectangular limits are returned as numpy arrays which can be useful when doing checks that do not need to be involved in the computation later on as they allow direct interaction with Python as compared to
tf.Tensor
inside a graph function.In order to test if the limits are False or None, it is recommended to use the appropriate methods
limits_are_false
andlimits_are_set
.- Returns:
- A tuple of two
np.ndarray
with shape (1, n_obs) typically. The last dimension is always
n_obs
, the first can be vectorized. This allows unstacking withz.unstack_x()
as can be done with data.

CannotConvertToNumpyError – In case the conversion fails.
LimitsNotSpecifiedError – If the limits are not set
- property rect_upper: ztyping.UpperTypeReturn#

There are two obs or axes around: the one associated with this Coordinate object and the one associated with x. If x_obs or x_axes is given, then this is assumed to be the obs resp. the axes of x and x will be reordered according to
self.obs
resp.self.axes
.If func_obs resp. func_axes is given, then x is assumed to have

and will be reordered to align with a function ordered withfunc_obs
resp.func_axes
.Switching

- with_obs(obs, allow_superset=True, allow_subset=True)[source]#
Create a new Space that has
obs
; sorted by or set or dropped.The behavior is as follows:
obs are already set:
input obs are None: the observables will be dropped. If no axes are set, an error will be raised, as no coordinates will be assigned to this instance anymore.
input obs are not None: the instance will be sorted by the incoming obs. If axes or other objects have an associated order (e.g. data, limits,…), they will be reordered as well. If a strict subset is given (and allow_subset is True), only a subset will be returned. This can be used to take a subspace of limits, data etc. If a strict superset is given (and allow_superset is True), the obs will be sorted accordingly as if the obs not contained in the instances obs were not in the input obs.
obs are not set:
if the input obs are None, the same object is returned.
if the input obs are not None, they will be set as-is and now correspond to the already existing axes in the object.
- Parameters:
obs (
Union
[str
,Iterable
[str
],Space
,None
]) – Observables to sort/associate this instance withallow_superset (
bool
) – if False and a strict superset of the own observables is given, an errorraised. (is)
allow_subset (
bool
) – if False and a strict subset of the own observables is given, an errorraised.
- Return type:
ZfitSpace
- Returns:
A copy of the object with the new ordering/observables
- Raises:
CoordinatesUnderdefinedError – if obs is None and the instance does not have axes
ObsIncompatibleError – if
obs
is a superset and allow_superset is False or a subset and allow_allow_subset is False
- with_axes(axes, allow_superset=True, allow_subset=True)[source]#
Create a new instance that has
axes
; sorted by or set or dropped.The behavior is as follows:
axes are already set:
input axes are None: the axes will be dropped. If no observables are set, an error will be raised, as no coordinates will be assigned to this instance anymore.
input axes are not None: the instance will be sorted by the incoming axes. If obs or other objects have an associated order (e.g. data, limits,…), they will be reordered as well. If a strict subset is given (and allow_subset is True), only a subset will be returned. This can be used to retrieve a subspace of limits, data etc. If a strict superset is given (and allow_superset is True), the axes will be sorted accordingly as if the axes not contained in the instances axes were not present in the input axes.
axes are not set:
if the input axes are None, the same object is returned.
if the input axes are not None, they will be set as-is and now correspond to the already existing obs in the object.
- Parameters:

ZfitSpace
- Returns:
A copy of the object with the new ordering/axes
- Raises:
CoordinatesUnderdefinedError – if obs is None and the instance does not have axes

axes
is a superset and allow_superset is False or a subset and allow_allow_subset is False
- with_coords(coords, allow_superset=True, allow_subset=True)[source]#
Create a new
Space
with reordered observables and/or axes.The behavior is that _at least one coordinate (obs or axes) has to be set in both instances (the space itself or in
coords
). If both match, observables is taken as the defining coordinate. The space is sorted according to the defining coordinate and the other coordinate is sorted as well. If either the space did not have the “weaker coordinate” (e.g. both have observables, but only coords has axes), then the resulting Space will have both. If both have both coordinates, obs and axes, and sorting for obs results in non-matchin axes results in axes being dropped.- Parameters:
- Return type:
Space
- Raises:
CoordinatesUnderdefinedError – if neither both obs or axes are specified.
CoordinatesIncompatibleError – if
coords
is a superset and allow_superset is False or a subset and allow_allow_subset is False
- with_autofill_axes(overwrite=False)[source]#
Overwrite the axes of the current object with axes corresponding to range(len(n_obs)).
This effectively fills with (0, 1, 2,…) and can be used mostly when an object enters a PDF or similar.
overwrite
allows to remove the axis first in case there are already some set.object.obs -> ('x', 'z', 'y') object.axes -> None object.with_autofill_axes() object.obs -> ('x', 'z', 'y') object.axes -> (0, 1, 2)
