Sphinx docs for CCTBX
by Nathaniel Echols 15 Aug '14

15 Aug '14

Thanks to some superb work by Nader Morshed, Oliver Zeldin, and Ian Rees, we now have automatically updated Sphinx docs for CCTBX: http://cci.lbl.gov/cctbx_docs/ Obviously these are still pretty sparse - right now most of the formal documentation is clustered here: libtbx libtbx.utils libtbx.phil (mostly re-using Ralf's old documentation) cctbx.miller iotbx.pdb (built on Ralf's newsletter article) mmtbx.command_line These are a combination of inline docstrings and separate restructured text files in cctbx_project/sphinx. We have automatically generated rst files for some modules, but others will need to be added manually. In the end I think we'll want to curate every file, but the current layout will get us started. To facilitate additional contributions, I've modifed the installation script for base packages to include a --sphinx option. After setting up CCTBX you can then do this: cd $BUILD libtbx.configure sphinx cd $SRC/cctbx_project/sphinx make html and you will get the full documentation built locally. I am still figuring out how to use Sphinx effectively; it is definitely possible to document Boost.Python extensions but it's not quite as obvious. I don't expect us to retroactively document several hundred thousand lines of code written over a decade, but if we can get the core parts thoroughly covered that will greatly reduce the barrier for new developers. Suggestions for particular modules to focus on are appreciated; I am going to try to cover the basic PDB+reflection file functionality. I encourage anyone doing CCTBX-related development to contribute as you go. (They don't need to be your own APIs, just modules you're reasonably familiar with.) Those of you who already have a ton of undocumented code can expect me to harass you periodically about fixing this. (Note that I've cannibalized at least one newsletter article for this, and continue to do so; we should re-use existing prose descriptions as much as possible without violating copyrights.) -Nat

Loop through symops: apply each symop to the original asu, then apply unit translations to minimize its distance to the original asu, test if new asu intersects with the target 27-bricks-large box, use it, if it does. Keep in mind that asu is not always a brick, it is always a convex polyhedron in cctbx. I do not see any good reason for doing all that. I do not read cctbxbb.

Re: [cctbxbb] 26-fold symm expansion of asu?

Many thanks for your replies. Pavel : by "slow" I meant to (a) apply sym ops to asu and refer results back to unit cell thus obtaining a "full" unit cell (I expect "expand_to_p1()" does this?) (b) translate the cell and (c) find overlap with the 26-brick neighborhood of the starting brick. This should work but seems inefficient. Marat: applying SymOps to the basis vectors seems a great idea. However, it wasn't clear to me how to combine sg SymOps to yield the 26 adjacent bricks. Does the map expansion code do this?

Hi, I'd be grateful for any pointers to clipper or cctbx code that addresses the following: given a "brick" of map grid coordinates that enclose the asu, obtain the 26 symmetry-related "bricks" which contact it. Calculating this by successively generating symmetry mates and testing seems slow; I was wondering whether there was a better way. thank you, Alastair Fyfe UCSC

Boost Import Error
by Magnus Andersson 17 Jun '14

17 Jun '14

Hi, I've installed the cctbx package from the selfextracting file found in http://cci.lbl.gov/cctbx_build/ but I run into problems when importing cctbx in my python script: import iotbx.pdb File "/Users/magnus/Downloads/cctbx_sources/iotbx/pdb/__init__.py", line 2, in <module> from cctbx.array_family import flex File "/Users/magnus/Downloads/cctbx_sources/cctbx/array_family/flex.py", line 2, in <module> import scitbx.array_family.flex File "/Users/magnus/Downloads/cctbx_sources/scitbx/array_family/flex.py", line 2, in <module> import boost.optional # import dependency ImportError: No module named boost.optional It is flex.py that wants to import boost.optional and does not find it. However, I find these three files: optional.hpp optional_fwd.hpp optional_io.hpp in the following directory: /Users/magnus/Downloads/cctbx_sources/boost/boost/optional which suggests that it's present. What am I missing here? I'm using Mac OS X Version 10.9.3 and Python2.7. Cheers, Magnus

sparse matrix
by David Waterman 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

Hi, I have a problem where the use of a sparse matrix is appropriate, so I was pretty happy to grep cctbx for "sparse" and discover the code in scitbx/sparse. I'm just browsing through the code and tests to get a feel for how to use these types. In my existing Python code I set the values for some columns using flex.double vectors, then ultimately fill a flex.double(flex.grid(n,m)) by these columns using matrix_paste_column_in_place. It seems to me I can use a very similar pattern by replacing the flex.doubles with sparse.matrix_columns and setting columns in the sparse.matrix using slice notation: mat[:,0] = column. So far so good. The issue is that I'm not sure how best to go about setting the values in the matrix_column in the first place. At the moment I'm making a lot of use of flex.size_t selections and the set_selected method of flex.double to efficiently (from Python) set elements of one flex.double from another. It appears that there is no similar functionality for sparse.matrix_column. Am I right? Possibly the best I can do is construct a Python dictionary consisting of the indices from my size_t selection and the values from my flex.double array and use these to construct the matrix_column, as done in tst_sparse, e.g. sparse.matrix_column(m, {1:0.1, 2:0.2}). Without having tried this, I sense it might be a burden. I have a lot of values to set and don't really want to convert from flex.double via a dictionary. Are there any philosophical/technical/other reasons for not writing a set_selected method for sparse.vector? If not, I might try to do this. Thanks -- David

boost python and metaclass inheritance
by David Waterman 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Hi, Does anyone know how to use __metaclass__ specification alongside inheritance from boost python classes? This code illustrates the problem: import abc > from scitbx.lstbx import normal_eqns > class Refinery(object): > __metaclass__ = abc.ABCMeta > pass > class AdaptLstbx(Refinery, normal_eqns.non_linear_ls): > pass The result is Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> > File "/usr/lib/python2.7/abc.py", line 87, in __new__ > cls = super(ABCMeta, mcls).__new__(mcls, name, bases, namespace) > TypeError: Error when calling the metaclass bases > metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must be a > (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases The real Refinery is a class that has one method that must be supplied by a concrete subclass. I like the idea of making it impossible to instantiate a base Refinery rather than relying on e.g. raise NotImplementedError() in that method definition. This is what ABCMeta would give me, if only I could get it to work here. Google found me some answers that require me to know the __metaclass__ of the bases (as suggested by the error message), but normal_eqns.non_linear_ls.__metaclass__ does not exist. I don't terribly mind the raise NotImplementedError() alternative, but I thought that if I can easily use ABCMeta, I'd like to. Cheers -- David

cctbx.python unnecessarily unfriendly
by James Stroud 10 Jan '14

10 Jan '14

Hello CCTBX developers, I noticed in the cctbx.python script the following lines that call the python interpreter if [ -n "$LIBTBX__VALGRIND_FLAG__" ]; then exec $LIBTBX_VALGRIND "$LIBTBX_PYEXE" -Qnew "$@" elif [ $# -eq 0 ]; then exec "$LIBTBX_PYEXE" -Qnew else exec "$LIBTBX_PYEXE" -Qnew "$@" fi Here, the “-Qnew” flag forces the python interpreter to work with new division (where “/“ does not strictly mean integer division). This flag basically overrides the expected python behavior to which python programmers have been writing code for over a decade, wrecks some dependencies, and stifles new code that itself depends on cctbx. It is highly frustrating to work around this highly unnecessary flag!! Fortunately, python has a better way to handle this problem by just having “from __future__ import division” at the top of .py files. In fact, I have spot-checked several files in the cctbx source tree and noticed that the ALL have this line at the top. So why does the -Qnew flag still exist in the cctbx.python script? It is entirely unnecessary and requires any and all dependencies to be programmed to a behavior that is not standard for the language. James p.s. It is not reasonable to ask users who install your packages to patch the cctbx.python script or to patch dependencies that don’t conform to this non-standard behavior.

building cctbx with external boost
by Marcin Wojdyr 19 Dec '13

19 Dec '13

Hi I vaguely remember a discussion some time ago about building cctbx with stand-alone boost libraries. Do you know what boost versions are compatible? Is using the --scan-boost option enough? I see that Gentoo has extra patch to unbundle boost from cctbx: http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/sci-libs/cctbx/file… Is it necessary? I'm asking because at this moment we have in CCP4 two versions of boost, one in cctbx and the other for building DSSP (it uses different subset of boost libs than cctbx). It would make sense to use a single version for both, if possible. Cheers Marcin

Re: [cctbxbb] cctbxbb Digest, Vol 59, Issue 1

Hi Nat, Thanks for your reply! I have tried the first method you mentioned--adding an index value to the return method. It did work if I only needed a single array for future calculation. But I found it's not very convenient for my program. It's convenient and more efficient if other classes in it could process all the one-dimensional arrays at the same time. Otherwise, I needed to write more control code in python, and the c++ part could only deal with a single array now. Therefore, I hoped that I could pass such a multidimensional array in my program.

Passing array between python and C++
by Zhenwei Luo 07 Dec '13

07 Dec '13

Hello Everyone, I am writing a refinement program using the cctbx. I have encountered with a problem when I wanted to pass an array between c++ and python. The type of array I used in my c++ source file is af::shared<af::shared<vec3> >, I would like to pass it into my python script, thus I could do some other operations to this array. I wrote a method in my class to return this array. af::shared<af::shared<vec3<double> > return_modes( ) { return modes; } I wrote another method in the *_ext file to wrap this method to make it callable from python. .def("return_modes", &nm_init::return_modes) But when I use it in python, eigenvector = nm_init_manager.return_modes() It gave me an error: TypeError: No to_python (by-value) converter found for c++ type: scitbx::af::shared<scitbx::af::shared<scitbx::vec3<double> > > What I want to realize is just creating an two dimensional array using vec3 as its element. I can also using the select method in this array to select some elements from its column, just like in the af::shared<vec3<double> > array. Namely, the column of this array should have some same properties like af::shared<vec3<double> >. Can anyone help me figure out what I should do? Thank you very much! Any help will be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Zhenwei Luo Rice University

libtbx.run_tests_parallel
by Graeme.Winter＠diamond.ac.uk 14 Nov '13

Folks, Would anyone mind if I added an option to libtbx.run_tests_parallel to automatically make a temporary directory, chdir to there and run? It would mean I could write a little update / build / run tests script more easily. auto_run_dir=true springs to mind as a Phil option. Any thoughts?

iotbx newbie question
by wtempel 07 Nov '13

07 Nov '13

Hello all, please consider the scenario of a manuscript that, among other things, describes 20 crystal structures. Suppose the journal editor requires a Table 1. I now looking for a tool to prepare such table with high accuracy and little effort. My PDB deposition workflow includes the preparation of mmcif coordinates with pdb_extract. The mmcif file is complete in the sense that after upload to RCSB-ADIT, virtually no additional information is required for deposition. My intuition was to combine CSV and IOTBX python modules and produce the table via input of a list of mmcif files. The current phenix table_1 tool provides some, but not all of that functionality, and I thought once familiar with the python modules, I would quickly write the script. After confirming that the example at http://cctbx.sourceforge.net/iotbx_cif/ works with my cctbx installation, I attempted to transform that code to read in PDB mmcif coordinates: <code> test_structure = iotbx.cif.reader( file_path="/tmp/1NXC.cif").build_crystal_structures()["1NXC"] </code> which throws an exception: <output> Traceback (most recent call last): File "1NXC.py", line 3, in <module> test_structure = iotbx.cif.reader(file_path="/tmp/1NXC.cif").build_crystal_structures()["1NXC"] KeyError: '1NXC' </output> How do I need to write the code so that it returns a python object with access to all the cif items? Thank you, Wolfram Tempel

compiler warning in dxtbx
by Oleg Dolomanov 04 Nov '13

04 Nov '13

Hi guys, there was big change in dxtbx/model/panel.h on the 30th of October (r18499) and apparently the != operator became recursive by calling itself rather than the == operator (line 378) - whoever is responsible - please check/fix, Cheers, Oleg.

Request for a fix in CC1/2 calculation in phenix.merging_statistics
by Keitaro Yamashita 28 Oct '13

28 Oct '13

Dear CCTBX developers, I found a big difference in CC1/2 value (say, 77.3 vs 68.3) between phenix.merging_statistics and XSCALE when more than one *anomalous* dataset was merged in XSCALE. phenix.merging_statistics seems to assume that equivalent (in case of anomalous, here I do not consider Friedel pairs as equivalent) reflections are sorted (equivalent reflections are not separeted) in the input file. Usually, this assumption should be correct. However, if multiple anomalous datasets were merged in XSCALE, this assumption is not correct. Because Friedel pairs are not necessarily separated. This is a real example (in P43212). These lines are extracted from .HKL file by XSCALE: > 1 -41 1 1.749E+04 1.657E+05 2052.0 2467.7 78.8 -113.23 1 > 41 -1 -1 4.569E+03 6.014E+03 454.1 1112.8 132.2 116.90 1 > 41 1 -1 8.721E+03 2.637E+03 473.0 1064.4 130.4 116.11 2 > 41 1 1 7.634E+03 2.417E+03 498.2 1010.8 135.3 115.65 2 > -1 -41 -1 4.847E+03 1.997E+03 1892.9 2543.0 85.9 -122.78 2 The last number indicates the dataset the reflection belongs to. Here, (1 -41 1), (41 -1 -1), (41, 1, 1), and (-1, -41, -1) are equivalent reflections, but (41, 1, -1) in the middle is not when anomalous data! Therefore, in phenix.merging_statistics, subsets calculation for (41,1,1) is performed twice (for first two and last two). When I changed the cctbx code to sort reflections after mapping to a.s.u., CC1/2 values by phenix.merging_statistics became closer to XSCALE. In merging_stats.__init__() in iotbx/merging_statistics.py, I inserted a line > array = array.sort("packed_indices") after > array = array.customized_copy(anomalous_flag=anomalous).map_to_asu() but I think there would be more correct way to fix this unexpected behavior. Best regards, Keitaro

correlation function for cctbx.miller.array
by Gabor Bunkoczi 24 Oct '13

24 Oct '13

Hi, I need to calculate the correlation function between two maps, both of them are stored as miller.array objects. There is a map_correlation method, which does something similar to what I want, but this calculates the total correlation coefficient, while what I need is another miller.array with amplitudes = f1*f2 and phases = p2-p1 (where f1, f2 are amplitudes and p1, p2 are phases of map1 and map2, respectively), i.e. not just the sum of these. Is this available somewhere? There is the additional complication that the hkl-list for map1 and map2 may not be fully identical, but the intersect of the two maps could be taken. Thanks, Gabor

Model based outlier calculation in mmtbx.scaling.outlier_rejection
by Keitaro Yamashita 08 Sep '13

08 Sep '13

Dear cctbx developers, I am interested in the implementation of model-based reflection outlier rejection. As I read the code mmtbx/scaling/outlier_rejection.py (lines 244-351), I noticed that maybe there was a discrepancy between what log_message explained and the actual code. The log_message in the code says: > Outliers are rejected on the basis of the assumption that a scaled > log likelihood differnce 2(log[P(Fobs)]-log[P(Fmode)])/Q\" is distributed > according to a Chi-square distribution (Q\" is equal to the second > derivative of the log likelihood function of the mode of the > distribution). > The outlier threshold of the p-value relates to the p-value of the > extreme value distribution of the chi-square distribution. while actual p_value is calculated for each hkl as p_value = 1 - erf(sqrt(LLG))**N, where LLG = log p(F=Fbar | Fmodel) - log p(F=Fobs | Fmodel), and N is the number of reflections. Here, Fbar is F which gives the maximum value of p(F | Fmodel). At least, Q (the second derivative of p(F=Fbar | Fmodel)) is not used in the actual calculation. Could someone please explain the meaning of the actual calculation? Why taking square-root and raising erf() result to the power of N? Thank you very much, Keitaro
