Естественные сглаживающие сплайты Python

После нескольких часов расследования я не нашел ни одного пакета, устанавливаемого на упаковке, который мог бы соответствовать естественному кубическому сплайну с контролируемой пользователем гладкостью. Однако, решив написать один сам, читая о теме, я наткнулся на сообщение в блоге пользователем github madrury . Он написал код python, способный создавать естественные кубические сплайновые модели.

Код модели доступен здесь (NaturalCubicSpline) с BSD-лицензией . Он также написал несколько примеров в ноутбуке IPython .

Но так как это Интернет, и ссылки, как правило, умирают, я буду копировать соответствующие части исходного кода здесь + вспомогательную функцию (get_natural_cubic_spline_model), написанную мной, и показать пример того, как используй это. Гладкость подгонки можно контролировать, используя различное количество узлов.

Пример

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

def func(x):
    return 1/(1+25*x**2)

# make example data
x = np.linspace(-1,1,300)
y = func(x) + np.random.normal(0, 0.2, len(x))

# The number of knots can be used to control the amount of smoothness
model_6 = get_natural_cubic_spline_model(x, y, minval=min(x), maxval=max(x), n_knots=6)
model_15 = get_natural_cubic_spline_model(x, y, minval=min(x), maxval=max(x), n_knots=15)
y_est_6 = model_6.predict(x)
y_est_15 = model_15.predict(x)


plt.plot(x, y, ls='', marker='.', label='originals')
plt.plot(x, y_est_6, marker='.', label='n_knots = 6')
plt.plot(x, y_est_15, marker='.', label='n_knots = 15')
plt.legend(); plt.show()

def get_natural_cubic_spline_model(x, y, minval=None, maxval=None, n_knots=None, knots=None):
    """
    Get a natural cubic spline model for the data.

    For the knots, give (a) `knots` (as an array) or (b) minval, maxval and n_knots.

    If the knots are not directly specified, the resulting knots are equally
    space within the *interior* of (max, min).  That is, the endpoints are
    *not* included as knots.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x: np.array of float
        The input data
    y: np.array of float
        The outpur data
    minval: float 
        Minimum of interval containing the knots.
    maxval: float 
        Maximum of the interval containing the knots.
    n_knots: positive integer 
        The number of knots to create.
    knots: array or list of floats 
        The knots.

    Returns
    --------
    model: a model object
        The returned model will have following method:
        - predict(x):
            x is a numpy array. This will return the predicted y-values.

    """Apply a natural cubic basis expansion to an array.
    The features created with this basis expansion can be used to fit a
    piecewise cubic function under the constraint that the fitted curve is
    linear *outside* the range of the knots..  The fitted curve is continuously
    differentiable to the second order at all of the knots.
    This transformer can be created in two ways:
      - By specifying the maximum, minimum, and number of knots.
      - By specifying the cutpoints directly.  

    If the knots are not directly specified, the resulting knots are equally
    space within the *interior* of (max, min).  That is, the endpoints are

    max: float
