r"""Checks the distribution of a kinetic energy trajectory.
Parameters
----------
data
Simulation data object
strict
If True, check full kinetic energy distribution via K-S test.
Otherwise, check mean and width of kinetic energy distribution.
Default: False
verbosity
Verbosity level, where 0 is quiet and 3 shows full details. Default: 2.
screen
Plot distributions on screen. Default: False.
filename
Plot distributions to `filename`. Default: None, no plotting to file.
bs_repetitions
Number of bootstrap samples used for error estimate (if strict=False).
Default: 200.
bootstrap_seed
Sets the random number seed for bootstrapping (if strict=False).
If set, bootstrapping will be reproducible.
Default: `None`, bootstrapping is non-reproducible.
data_is_uncorrelated
Whether the provided data is uncorrelated. If this option
is set, the equilibration, decorrelation and tail pruning
of the trajectory is skipped. This can speed up the analysis,
but note that if the provided data is correlated, the results
of the physical validation checks might be invalid.
Returns
-------
result
If `strict=True`: The p value of the test.
If `strict=False`: Distance of the estimated T(mu) and T(sigma) from
the expected temperature, measured in standard deviations of the respective
estimate.
Notes
-----
Non-strict test
If `strict = False` (the default), this function will estimate the mean and
the standard deviation of the data. Analytically, a gamma distribution with
shape :math:`k = N / 2` (with :math:`N` the number of degrees of freedom)
and scale :math:`\theta = k_B T` (with :math:`T` the target temperature)
is expected. The mean and the standard deviation of a gamma distribution
are given by :math:`\mu = k\theta` and :math:`\sigma = \sqrt k \theta`.
The standard error of the mean and standard deviation are estimated via
bootstrap resampling. The function prints the analytically expected mean
and variance as well as the fitted values and their error estimates. It
also prints T(mu) and T(sigma), which are defined as the temperatures to
which the estimated mean and standard deviation correspond, given the number
of degrees of freedom :math:`N` in the system:
.. math::
T(\mu') = \frac{2 \mu'}{N k_B}
.. math::
T(\sigma') = \frac{\sqrt 2 \sigma'}{\sqrt N k_B}
The return value is a tuple containing the distance of the estimated T(mu) and
T(sigma) from the expected temperature, measured in standard deviations of the
respective estimates.
Strict test
If `strict = True`, this function tests the hypothesis that a sample
of kinetic energies is Maxwell-Boltzmann distributed given a specific
target temperature and the number of degrees of freedom in the system,
.. math::
P(K) \sim K^{N/2-1} e^{-\beta K} \, .
The test is performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test provided by
scipy.stats.kstest_. It returns the :math:`p`-value, measuring the
likelihood that a sample at least as extreme as the one given is
originating from the expected distribution.
.. _scipy.stats.kstest: https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy-0.19.0/reference/generated/scipy.stats.kstest.html
.. note:: The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is known to have two weaknesses.
#. The test is more sensitive towards deviations around the center
of the distribution than at its tails. We deem this to be acceptable
for most MD applications, but be wary if yours is sensible to the
kinetic distribution tails.
#. The test is not valid if its parameters are guessed from the data
set. Using the target temperature of the MD simulation as an input
is therefore perfectly valid, but using the average temperature
over the trajectory as an input to the test can potentially
invalidate it.

Parameters
----------
data
Simulation data object
strict
If True, check full kinetic energy distribution via K-S test.
Otherwise, check mean and width of kinetic energy distribution.
Default: False
molec_groups
List of 1d arrays containing molecule indices defining groups. Useful to pre-define
groups of molecules (e.g. solute / solvent, liquid mixture species, ...). If None,
no pre-defined molecule groups will be tested. Default: None.
*Note:* If an empty 1d array is found as last element in the list, the remaining
molecules are collected in this array. This allows, for example, to only
specify the solute, and indicate the solvent by giving an empty array.
random_divisions
Number of random division tests attempted. Default: 0 (random division tests off).
random_groups
Number of groups the system is randomly divided in. Default: 2.
random_division_seed
Seed making the random divisions reproducible.
Default: None, random divisions not reproducible
verbosity
Verbosity level, where 0 is quiet and 3 very chatty. Default: 2.
screen
Plot distributions on screen. Default: False.
filename
Plot distributions to `filename`. Default: None, no plotting to file
bootstrap_seed
Sets the random number seed for bootstrapping (if strict=False).
If set, bootstrapping will be reproducible.
Default: None, bootstrapping is non-reproducible.
data_is_uncorrelated

is set, the equilibration, decorrelation and tail pruning
of the trajectory is skipped. This can speed up the analysis,
but note that if the provided data is correlated, the results
of the physical validation checks might be invalid.
Returns
-------
result
If `strict=True`: The p value for every tests.
If `strict=False`: Distance of the estimated T(mu) and T(sigma) from
the expected temperature, measured in standard deviations of the
respective estimate, for every test.
Notes
-----
This function compares the kinetic energy between groups of degrees of
freedom. Theoretically, the kinetic energy is expected (via the
equipartition theorem) to be equally distributed over all degrees of
freedom. In practice, deviations of temperature between groups of
degrees of freedom up to several degrees K are routinely observed.
Larger deviations can, however, hint to misbehaving simulations, such
as, e.g., frozen degrees of freedom, lack of energy exchange between
degrees of freedom, and transfer of heat from faster to slower degrees
of freedom.
Splitting of degrees of freedom is done both on a sub-molecular and on
a molecular level. On a sub-molecular level, the degrees of freedom of
a molecule can be partitioned into rigid-body contributions
(translation of the center-of-mass, rotation around the
center-of-mass) and intra-molecular contributions. On a molecular
level, the single molecules of the system can be divided in groups,
either by function (solute / solvent, different species of liquid
mixtures, ...) or randomly.
`check_equipartition()` partitions the kinetic energy of the entire
system and, optionally, of predefined or randomly separated groups. It
then computes either the mean and the standard deviation of each partition
and compares them to the theoretically expected value (`strict=True`, the
default), or it performs a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test of the distribution.
See physical_validation.kinetic_energy.distribution for more detail on the
checks.
