Class MultistateBennettAcceptanceRatio

java.lang.Object
ffx.numerics.estimator.SequentialEstimator
ffx.numerics.estimator.MultistateBennettAcceptanceRatio
All Implemented Interfaces:
BootstrappableEstimator, StatisticalEstimator, OptimizationInterface

public class MultistateBennettAcceptanceRatio extends SequentialEstimator implements BootstrappableEstimator, OptimizationInterface
The MultistateBennettAcceptanceRatio class defines a statistical estimator based on a generalization to the Bennett Acceptance Ratio (BAR) method for multiple lambda windows. It requires an input of K X N array of energies (every window at every snap at every lambda value). No support for different number of snapshots at each window. This will be caught by the filter, but not by the Harmonic Oscillators testcase.

This class implements the method discussed in: Shirts, M. R. and Chodera, J. D. (2008) Statistically optimal analysis of samples from multiple equilibrium states. J. Chem. Phys. 129, 124105. doi:10.1063/1.2978177

This class is based heavily on the pymbar code, which is available at: https://github.com/choderalab/pymbar/tree/master
