pyhs3.functions.Function

class pyhs3.functions.Function(**data)[source]

Base class for functions in HS3.

Provides the foundation for all function implementations, handling parameter management and constant generation.

Inherits parameter processing functionality from Evaluable. Subclasses must implement _expression() to define computation logic.

Parameters:

data (Any)

__init__(**data)

Create a new model by parsing and validating input data from keyword arguments.

Raises [ValidationError][pydantic_core.ValidationError] if the input data cannot be validated to form a valid model.

self is explicitly positional-only to allow self as a field name.

Parameters:

data (Any)

classmethod Function.construct(_fields_set=None, **values)
Parameters:
Return type:

Self

Function.copy(*, include=None, exclude=None, update=None, deep=False)

Returns a copy of the model.

!!! warning “Deprecated”

This method is now deprecated; use model_copy instead.

If you need include or exclude, use:

`python {test="skip" lint="skip"} data = self.model_dump(include=include, exclude=exclude, round_trip=True) data = {**data, **(update or {})} copied = self.model_validate(data) `

Parameters:
  • include (Set[int] | Set[str] | Mapping[int, Any] | Mapping[str, Any] | None) – Optional set or mapping specifying which fields to include in the copied model.

  • exclude (Set[int] | Set[str] | Mapping[int, Any] | Mapping[str, Any] | None) – Optional set or mapping specifying which fields to exclude in the copied model.

  • update (Dict[str, Any] | None) – Optional dictionary of field-value pairs to override field values in the copied model.

  • deep (bool) – If True, the values of fields that are Pydantic models will be deep-copied.

Return type:

Self

Returns:

A copy of the model with included, excluded and updated fields as specified.

Function.dict(*, include=None, exclude=None, by_alias=False, exclude_unset=False, exclude_defaults=False, exclude_none=False)
Parameters:
Return type:

Dict[str, Any]

Function.expression(context)

Evaluate and return a named PyTensor expression.

This is a template method that calls _expression() to get the result, then names the result before returning.

_expression() may return a tensor it does not own — for example a single-summand SumFunction or a single-factor ProductFunction returns context[param] directly, which is the same tensor object stored in model.parameters. Renaming such a shared tensor in place would silently corrupt the parameter it borrows (e.g. model.parameters['mu'] would be renamed to the function’s name). To avoid this, a result that already carries a different name is wrapped in a fresh identity copy before being renamed; freshly built (unnamed) expressions are named in place as before so that compilation and graph_summary keep working.

Parameters:

context (Context) – Mapping of names to PyTensor variables

Return type:

TypeAliasType

Returns:

Named PyTensor expression representing the component

classmethod Function.from_orm(obj)
Parameters:

obj (Any)

Return type:

Self

Function.get_parameter_list(context, param_key)

Reconstruct a parameter list from flattened indexed keys.

Used to recover the original list structure from the indexed parameter mapping created by process_parameter_list().

Parameters:
  • context (Context) – The context containing parameter values mapped by name.

  • param_key (str) – The base parameter key (e.g., “factors”).

Return type:

list[TypeAliasType]

Returns:

List of parameter values in original order.

Example

>>> from typing import Literal
>>> class TestEvaluable(Evaluable):
...     type: Literal["test"] = "test"
...     factors: list[str | float]
...     def _expression(self, _: Context) -> TensorVar:
...         return None
>>>
>>> eval1 = TestEvaluable(name="test", factors=["a", 1.0, "b"])
>>> context = {
...     "a": "tensor_a",
...     "constant_test_factors[1]": "tensor_1",
...     "b": "tensor_b"
... }
>>> eval1.get_parameter_list(context, "factors")

Function.json(*, include=None, exclude=None, by_alias=False, exclude_unset=False, exclude_defaults=False, exclude_none=False, encoder=PydanticUndefined, models_as_dict=PydanticUndefined, **dumps_kwargs)
Parameters:
Return type:

str

classmethod Function.model_construct(_fields_set=None, **values)

Creates a new instance of the Model class with validated data.

Creates a new model setting __dict__ and __pydantic_fields_set__ from trusted or pre-validated data. Default values are respected, but no other validation is performed.

!!! note

model_construct() generally respects the model_config.extra setting on the provided model. That is, if model_config.extra == ‘allow’, then all extra passed values are added to the model instance’s __dict__ and __pydantic_extra__ fields. If model_config.extra == ‘ignore’ (the default), then all extra passed values are ignored. Because no validation is performed with a call to model_construct(), having model_config.extra == ‘forbid’ does not result in an error if extra values are passed, but they will be ignored.

Parameters:
  • _fields_set (set[str] | None) – A set of field names that were originally explicitly set during instantiation. If provided, this is directly used for the [model_fields_set][pydantic.BaseModel.model_fields_set] attribute. Otherwise, the field names from the values argument will be used.

  • values (Any) – Trusted or pre-validated data dictionary.

Return type:

Self

Returns:

A new instance of the Model class with validated data.

Function.model_copy(*, update=None, deep=False)
!!! abstract “Usage Documentation”

[model_copy](../concepts/models.md#model-copy)

Returns a copy of the model.

!!! note

The underlying instance’s [__dict__][object.__dict__] attribute is copied. This might have unexpected side effects if you store anything in it, on top of the model fields (e.g. the value of [cached properties][functools.cached_property]).

Parameters:
  • update (Mapping[str, Any] | None) – Values to change/add in the new model. Note: the data is not validated before creating the new model. You should trust this data.

  • deep (bool) – Set to True to make a deep copy of the model.

Return type:

Self

Returns:

New model instance.

Function.model_dump(*, mode='python', include=None, exclude=None, context=None, by_alias=None, exclude_unset=False, exclude_defaults=False, exclude_none=False, exclude_computed_fields=False, round_trip=False, warnings=True, fallback=None, serialize_as_any=False)
!!! abstract “Usage Documentation”

Parameters:

  • round_trip (bool) – If True, dumped values should be valid as input for non-idempotent types such as Json[T].

  • warnings (bool | Literal['none', 'warn', 'error']) – How to handle serialization errors. False/”none” ignores them, True/”warn” logs errors, “error” raises a [PydanticSerializationError][pydantic_core.PydanticSerializationError].

  • fallback (Callable[[Any], Any] | None) – A function to call when an unknown value is encountered. If not provided, a [PydanticSerializationError][pydantic_core.PydanticSerializationError] error is raised.

  • serialize_as_any (bool) – Whether to serialize fields with duck-typing serialization behavior.

Return type:

dict[str, Any]

Returns:
