Detailed Description

A utility class for fitting a set of FunctionBasedPaths to existing geometry-path in an OpenSim model using MultivariatePolynomialFunctions.

The primary inputs to this class include a model containing path objects derived from AbstractGeometryPath (e.g., GeometryPath) and a reference trajectory containing coordinate values for all Coordinates in the model. The path fitting process samples coordinate values around the reference trajectory, computes path lengths and moment arms from the geometry-based paths in the model, and fits polynomial coefficients for MultivariatePolynomialFunction objects based on the path length and moment arm samples. The fitted paths are written to an XML file, along with the modified coordinate values, sampled coordinate values, path lengths, and moment arms for both the original and fitted paths.

Note: Each file name is prefixed with the name of the model, and the directory to which the results are written can be specified using the setOutputDirectory method.

Settings

Various settings can be adjusted to control the path fitting process. The setMomentArmsThreshold method determines whether or not a path depends on a model coordinate. In other words, the absolute value the moment arm of a with respect to a particular coordinate must be greater than this value to be included during path fitting. The setMinimumPolynomialOrder and setMaximumPolynomialOrder methods specify the minimum and maximum order of the polynomial used to fit each path. The setGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds property specifies the global bounds (in degrees) that determine the minimum and maximum coordinate values sampled at each time point. The method appendCoordinateSamplingBounds can be used to override the global bounds for a specific coordinate. The setMomentArmTolerance and setPathLengthTolerance methods specify the tolerance on the root-mean-square (RMS) error (in meters) between the moment arms and path lengths computed from the original model paths and the fitted polynomial paths. The setNumSamplesPerFrame method specifies the number of samples taken per time frame in the coordinate values table used to fit each path. The setNumParallelThreads method specifies the number of threads used to parallelize the path fitting process. The setLatinHypercubeAlgorithm method specifies the Latin hypercube sampling algorithm used to sample coordinate values for path fitting.

The default settings are as follows:

Moment arm threshold: 1e-3 meters
Minimum polynomial order: 2
Maximum polynomial order: 6
Global coordinate sampling bounds: [-10, 10] degrees
Moment arm tolerance: 1e-4 meters
Path length tolerance: 1e-4 meters
Number of samples per frame: 25
Number of threads: number of available hardware threads
Latin hypercube sampling algorithm: "random"
Use stepwise regression: False

Note: The default settings were chosen based on testing with a human lower-extremity model. Different settings may be required for other models with larger or smaller anatomical measures (e.g., dinosaur models).

Usage

The most basic usage of PolynomialPathFitter requires the user to provide a model and reference trajectory. The model should contain at least one path object derived from AbstractGeometryPath and should not contain any FunctionBasedPath objects. The reference trajectory must contain coordinate values for all Coordinates in the model:

PolynomialPathFitter fitter;
fitter.setModel(ModelProcessor("model.osim"));
fitter.setCoordinateValues(TableProcessor("values.sto"));

The additional settings can be adjusted using the various set methods described above. For example, the global coordinate sampling bounds, bounds for the coordinate at "/jointset/slider/position", and the number of samples per frame can be set as follows:

fitter.setGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds(SimTK::Vec2(-20.0, 20.0));
fitter.appendCoordinateSamplingBounds(
        "/jointset/slider/position", SimTK::Vec2(-5.0, 15.0));
fitter.setNumSamplesPerFrame(50);

The path fitting process can be run using the run() method:

fitter.run();

Recommendations

Information from each step of the path fitting process is logged to the console, provided that you have set the OpenSim::Logger to level "info" or greater. Warnings are printed if the number of samples is likely insufficient for the fitting process, or if the fit for a particular path did not meet the specified tolerances.

It is highly recommended to use the files printed to the output directory to evaluate the quality of the fitted paths (see setOutputDirectory() for more details). Depending on the quality of the original model, it may not be possible to achieve a good fit for all paths (e.g., due to kinks or other discontinuities in the path). Finally, the fitted paths should only be used in simulations for which the coordinate values represent the expected range of motion for the model. If you are unsure if a simulation you have created with the fitted paths is valid, you can use the evaluateFunctionBasedPaths static method to compare the fitted paths to the original model paths given a new kinematic trajectory.

Note: The evaluateFunctionBasedPaths method can be used independently from the rest of this class, and does not require the FunctionBasedPaths in the model to use MultivariatePolynomialFunctions.

Member Function Documentation

◆ appendCoordinateSamplingBounds()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::appendCoordinateSamplingBounds	(	const std::string &	coordinatePath,
		const SimTK::Vec2 &	bounds
	)

The bounds (in degrees) that determine the minimum and maximum coordinate value samples at each time point for the coordinate at coordinatePath.

The bounds are specified as a SimTK::Vec2, where the first element is the minimum bound and the second element is the maximum bound. The maximum sample value at a particular time point is the nominal coordinate value plus the maximum bound, and the minimum sample value is the nominal coordinate value minus the minimum bound. This overrides the global bounds set by setGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds() for this coordinate.

◆ assign()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::assign ( Object & aObject )

inlineoverride

This allows copy assignment in the Java GUI.

Exceptions

Exception if the argument is not of type PolynomialPathFitter.

◆ clone()

PolynomialPathFitter* OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::clone ( ) const

inlineoverridevirtual

Create a new heap-allocated copy of the concrete object to which this Object refers.

It is up to the caller to delete the returned object when no longer needed. Every concrete object deriving from Object implements this pure virtual method automatically, via the declaration macro it invokes (e.g., OpenSim_DECLARE_CONCRETE_OBJECT()). Note that the concrete class overrides modify the return type to be a pointer to the concrete object; that still overrides the base class method because the return type is covariant with (that is, derives from) Object.

Implements OpenSim::Object.

◆ evaluateFunctionBasedPaths()

static void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::evaluateFunctionBasedPaths	(	Model	model,
		TableProcessor	trajectory,
		const std::string &	functionBasedPathsFile,
		double	pathLengthTolerance = `1e-4`,
		double	momentArmTolerance = `1e-4`
	)

static

Print out a summary of the path fitting results, including information about the fitted polynomial functions and root-mean-square (RMS) errors between the original and fitted paths.

The trajectory argument is a TableProcessor object containing the simulation trajectory, specifically the set of coordinate values, used to compute path lengths and moment arms. The polynomialPathsFile argument is the path to an XML file containing the set of FunctionBasedPaths fitted to the geometry-based paths in model. These paths can be defined by MultivariatePolynomialFunctions generated by this class or any other Function objects that approximate the original model paths.

◆ getClassName()

static const std::string& OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getClassName ( )

inlinestatic

This returns "PolynomialPathFitter".

See getConcreteClassName() if you want the class name of the underlying concrete object instead.

This is generated by the OpenSim_DECLARE_*_OBJECT macros.

◆ getConcreteClassName()

const std::string& OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getConcreteClassName ( ) const

inlineoverridevirtual

Returns the class name of the concrete Object-derived class of the actual object referenced by this Object, as a string.

This is the string that is used as the tag for this concrete object in an XML file. Every concrete class derived from Object automatically overrides this method via the declaration macro it uses. See getClassName() to get the class name of the referencing (possibly abstract) class rather than the concrete object.

◆ getGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds()

SimTK::Vec2 OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds ( ) const

The global bounds that determine the minimum and maximum coordinate value samples at each time point.

The bounds are specified as a SimTK::Vec2, where the first element is the minimum bound and the second element is the maximum bound. Rotational coordinates are in degrees; translational coordinates in meters. The maximum sample value at a particular time point is the nominal coordinate value plus the maximum bound, and the minimum sample value is the nominal coordinate value minus the minimum bound.

Note: The default global bounds are set to [-10, 10] degrees/meters. If you have a model with paths that cross translational joints, you may to specify smaller bounds for the translational coordinates (see appendCoordinateSamplingBounds()).; To override the default global bounds for a specific coordinate, use the appendCoordinateSamplingBounds() method.

◆ getIncludeLengtheningSpeedFunction()

bool OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getIncludeLengtheningSpeedFunction ( ) const

inline

Whether or not to include the lengthening speed function in the fitted path (default: false).

The lengthening speed function is computed by taking dot product of the moment arm functions by the vector of time derivatives of the coordinate values using symbolic math. The result is negated to offset the negation applied to the moment arm function expressions.

Note: Since FunctionBasedPath uses cached moment arm values to compute lengthening speed, including this function in the path definition may make lengthening speed evaluation slower compared to only including the moment arm functions (the moment arm expressions are effectively evaluated twice). Therefore, this setting is disabled by default.

◆ getIncludeMomentArmFunctions()

bool OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getIncludeMomentArmFunctions ( ) const

inline

Whether or not to include moment arm functions in the fitted path (default: false).

The moment arm functions are constructed by taking the derivative of the path length function with respect to the coordinate values using symbolic differentiation. The function coefficients are negated to match the moment arm convention in OpenSim.

◆ getLatinHypercubeAlgorithm()

std::string OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getLatinHypercubeAlgorithm ( ) const

The Latin hypercube sampling algorithm used to sample coordinate values for path fitting.

The Latin hypercube sampling algorithm is used to sample coordinate values for path fitting. The algorithm can be set to either "random" or "ESEA", which stands for the enhanced stochastic evolutionary algorithm developed by Jin et al. 2005 (see class LatinHypercubeDesign for more details). The "random" algorithm is used by default, and "ESEA" can be used to improve the quality of the sampling at the expense of higher computational cost. For most applications, the "random" algorithm is likely sufficient.

◆ getMaximumPolynomialOrder()

int OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getMaximumPolynomialOrder ( ) const

The maximum order of the polynomial used to fit each path.

The order of a polynomial is the highest power of the independent variable(s) in the polynomial.

Note: The default maximum polynomial order is set to 6.

◆ getMinimumPolynomialOrder()

int OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getMinimumPolynomialOrder ( ) const

The minimum order of the polynomial used to fit each path.

The order of a polynomial is the highest power of the independent variable(s) in the polynomial.

Note: The default minimum polynomial order is set to 2.

◆ getMomentArmThreshold()

double OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getMomentArmThreshold ( ) const

The moment arm threshold value that determines whether or not a path depends on a model coordinate.

In other words, the moment arm of a path with respect to a particular coordinate must be greater than this value to be included during path fitting.

Note: The default moment arm threshold is set to 1e-3 meters.

◆ getMomentArmTolerance()

double OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getMomentArmTolerance ( ) const

The tolerance on the root-mean-square (RMS) error (in meters) between the moment arms computed from an original model path and a fitted polynomial-based path, which is used to determine the order of the polynomial used in the fitted path.

The moment arm RMS error must be less than the tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted. If the RMS error is greater than the tolerance, the polynomial order is increased by one and the path is refitted. This process is repeated until the RMS error is less than the tolerance or the maximum polynomial order is reached.

Note: The default moment arm tolerance is set to 1e-4 meters.; The path length RMS error must also be less than the path length tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted (see setPathLengthTolerance).

◆ getNumParallelThreads()

int OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getNumParallelThreads ( ) const

The number of threads used to parallelize the path fitting process.

This setting is used to divide the coordinate sampling, path length and moment arm computations, and path fitting across multiple threads. The number of threads must be greater than zero.

Note: The default is the number of available hardware threads.

◆ getNumSamplesPerFrame()

int OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getNumSamplesPerFrame ( ) const

The number of samples taken per time frame in the coordinate values table used to fit each path.

Note: The default number of samples per frame is set to 25.

◆ getOutputDirectory()

std::string OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getOutputDirectory ( ) const

◆ getPathLengthTolerance()

double OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getPathLengthTolerance ( ) const

The tolerance on the root-mean-square (RMS) error (in meters) between the path lengths computed from an original model path and a fitted polynomial-based path, which is used to determine the order of the polynomial used in the fitted path.

The path length RMS error must be less than the tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted. If the RMS error is greater than the tolerance, the polynomial order is increased by one and the path is refitted. This process is repeated until the RMS error is less than the tolerance or the maximum polynomial order is reached.

Note: The default path length tolerance is set to 1e-4 meters.; The moment arm RMS error must also be less than the moment arm tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted (see setMomentArmTolerance).

◆ getUseStepwiseRegression()

bool OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::getUseStepwiseRegression ( ) const

◆ operator=() [1/2]

PolynomialPathFitter& OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::operator= ( const PolynomialPathFitter & )

◆ operator=() [2/2]

PolynomialPathFitter& OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::operator= ( PolynomialPathFitter && )

◆ run()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::run ( )

Run the path fitting process.

The path fitting process consists of the following steps:

1. Load the model and reference coordinate values trajectory. The
   coordinate values table is modified to update the column labels
   based on the model coordinate paths, to update any coordinates
   dependent on `CoordinateCouplerConstraint`s, and to convert the
   coordinate values to radians if the "inDegrees" metadata flag is
   set to "yes".

2. Set sampling bounds for coordinates based on the global and
   coordinate-specific bounds properties.

3. Verify that the remaining user settings are valid.

4. Sample coordinate values around the reference trajectory using
   Latin hypercube sampling. The sampling is defined based on the
   coordinate bounds and range maps, the number of samples per frame,
   and the Latin hypercube sampling algorithm.

5. Compute path lengths and moment arms from the geometry-based paths
   in the input model.

6. Filter out bad coordinate samples and populate a map containing
   the coordinates that path is dependent on.

7. Fit the polynomial coefficients by finding a least-squares fit
   between the path lengths and moment arms computed from the
   geometry-based paths and the path lengths and moment arms
   computed from the fitted polynomial-based paths.

8. Print out a summary of the path fitting results, including
   information about the fitted polynomial functions and
   root-mean-square (RMS) errors between the original and fitted
   paths.

9. Write the fitted paths, modified coordinate values, sampled
   coordinate values, path lengths, and moment arms to files.

Note: Steps 4, 5, and 7 are parallelized using the number of threads specified via the setParallel() method.

◆ safeDownCast()

static PolynomialPathFitter* OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::safeDownCast ( OpenSim::Object * obj )

inlinestatic

For use in MATLAB and Python to access the concrete class.

Example: cObj = PolynomialPathFitter.safeDownCast(obj). This is equivalent to dynamic_cast<PolynomialPathFitter*>(obj) in C++.

◆ setCoordinateValues()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setCoordinateValues ( TableProcessor coordinateValues )

The reference trajectory used to sample coordinate values for path fitting.

The reference trajectory should be provided using a TableProcessor object. The reference trajectory must contain coordinate values for all Coordinates in the model. We assumed that the coordinate values meet all the kinematic constraints in the model, except for CoordinateCouplerConstraints, since we automatically update the coordinate trajectory to satisfy these constraints. The TimeSeriesTable must contain the "inDegrees" metadata flag; the coordinate values are automatically converted to radians if this flag is set to "yes".

◆ setGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setGlobalCoordinateSamplingBounds ( SimTK::Vec2 bounds )

The global bounds that determine the minimum and maximum coordinate value samples at each time point.

The bounds are specified as a SimTK::Vec2, where the first element is the minimum bound and the second element is the maximum bound. Rotational coordinates are in degrees; translational coordinates in meters. The maximum sample value at a particular time point is the nominal coordinate value plus the maximum bound, and the minimum sample value is the nominal coordinate value minus the minimum bound.

Note: The default global bounds are set to [-10, 10] degrees/meters. If you have a model with paths that cross translational joints, you may to specify smaller bounds for the translational coordinates (see appendCoordinateSamplingBounds()).; To override the default global bounds for a specific coordinate, use the appendCoordinateSamplingBounds() method.

◆ setIncludeLengtheningSpeedFunction()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setIncludeLengtheningSpeedFunction ( bool tf )

inline

Whether or not to include the lengthening speed function in the fitted path (default: false).

The lengthening speed function is computed by taking dot product of the moment arm functions by the vector of time derivatives of the coordinate values using symbolic math. The result is negated to offset the negation applied to the moment arm function expressions.

Note: Since FunctionBasedPath uses cached moment arm values to compute lengthening speed, including this function in the path definition may make lengthening speed evaluation slower compared to only including the moment arm functions (the moment arm expressions are effectively evaluated twice). Therefore, this setting is disabled by default.

◆ setIncludeMomentArmFunctions()

The moment arm functions are constructed by taking the derivative of the path length function with respect to the coordinate values using symbolic differentiation. The function coefficients are negated to match the moment arm convention in OpenSim.

◆ setLatinHypercubeAlgorithm()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setLatinHypercubeAlgorithm ( std::string algorithm )

The Latin hypercube sampling algorithm used to sample coordinate values for path fitting.

The Latin hypercube sampling algorithm is used to sample coordinate values for path fitting. The algorithm can be set to either "random" or "ESEA", which stands for the enhanced stochastic evolutionary algorithm developed by Jin et al. 2005 (see class LatinHypercubeDesign for more details). The "random" algorithm is used by default, and "ESEA" can be used to improve the quality of the sampling at the expense of higher computational cost. For most applications, the "random" algorithm is likely sufficient.

◆ setMaximumPolynomialOrder()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setMaximumPolynomialOrder ( int order )

The maximum order of the polynomial used to fit each path.

The order of a polynomial is the highest power of the independent variable(s) in the polynomial.

Note: The default maximum polynomial order is set to 6.

The minimum order of the polynomial used to fit each path.

The order of a polynomial is the highest power of the independent variable(s) in the polynomial.

Note: The default minimum polynomial order is set to 2.

◆ setModel()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setModel ( ModelProcessor model )

The model containing geometry-based path objects to which polynomial-based path objects will be fitted.

The model should be provided using a ModelProcessor object. We expect the model to contain at least one path object derived from AbstractGeometryPath and does not already contain any FunctionBasedPath objects. The bounds for clamped coordinates are obeyed during the fitting process. Locked coordinates are unlocked if data is provided for them, or replaced with WeldJoints if no data is provided for them.

◆ setMomentArmThreshold()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setMomentArmThreshold ( double threshold )

The moment arm threshold value that determines whether or not a path depends on a model coordinate.

In other words, the moment arm of a path with respect to a particular coordinate must be greater than this value to be included during path fitting.

Note: The default moment arm threshold is set to 1e-3 meters.

◆ setMomentArmTolerance()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setMomentArmTolerance ( double tolerance )

The tolerance on the root-mean-square (RMS) error (in meters) between the moment arms computed from an original model path and a fitted polynomial-based path, which is used to determine the order of the polynomial used in the fitted path.

The moment arm RMS error must be less than the tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted. If the RMS error is greater than the tolerance, the polynomial order is increased by one and the path is refitted. This process is repeated until the RMS error is less than the tolerance or the maximum polynomial order is reached.

Note: The default moment arm tolerance is set to 1e-4 meters.; The path length RMS error must also be less than the path length tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted (see setPathLengthTolerance).

◆ setNumParallelThreads()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setNumParallelThreads ( int numThreads )

The number of threads used to parallelize the path fitting process.

This setting is used to divide the coordinate sampling, path length and moment arm computations, and path fitting across multiple threads. The number of threads must be greater than zero.

Note: The default is the number of available hardware threads.

◆ setNumSamplesPerFrame()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setNumSamplesPerFrame ( int numSamples )

Note: The default number of samples per frame is set to 25.

◆ setOutputDirectory()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setOutputDirectory ( std::string directory )

The directory to which the path fitting results are written.

If the path fitting is successful, the fitted paths are written as a Set of FunctionBasedPath objects (with path length functions defined using MultivariatePolynomialFunction objects) to an XML file. Files containing the modified coordinate values, sampled coordinate values, path lengths, and moment arms for both the original and fitted paths are also written to the output directory.

Note: By default, results are written to the current working directory.

◆ setPathLengthTolerance()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setPathLengthTolerance ( double tolerance )

The tolerance on the root-mean-square (RMS) error (in meters) between the path lengths computed from an original model path and a fitted polynomial-based path, which is used to determine the order of the polynomial used in the fitted path.

The path length RMS error must be less than the tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted. If the RMS error is greater than the tolerance, the polynomial order is increased by one and the path is refitted. This process is repeated until the RMS error is less than the tolerance or the maximum polynomial order is reached.

Note: The default path length tolerance is set to 1e-4 meters.; The moment arm RMS error must also be less than the moment arm tolerance for the polynomial order to be accepted (see setMomentArmTolerance).

◆ setUseStepwiseRegression()

void OpenSim::PolynomialPathFitter::setUseStepwiseRegression ( bool tf )

Whether or not to use stepwise regression to fit a minimal set of polynomial coefficients.

Stepwise regression builds a vector of coefficients by individually adding polynomial terms that result in the smallest path length and moment arm error. When a new term is added, the fitting process is repeated to recompute the coefficients. Polynomial terms are added until the path length and moment arm tolerances are met, or the maximum number of terms is reached.

Note: By default, this setting is false.; If enabled, stepwise regression will fit coefficients using the maximum polynomial order based on setMaximumPolynomialOrder().
