Examples

julia> using BundleAdjustmentModels

problems_df() returns a DataFrame of all the problems, their group and other features.

julia> df = problems_df()
74×5 DataFrame
 Row │ name                     group      nequ      nvar     nnzj      
     │ String                   String     Int64     Int64    Int64     
─────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
   1 │ problem-16-22106-pre     dubrovnik    167436    66462    2009232
  ⋮  │            ⋮                 ⋮         ⋮         ⋮         ⋮
  74 │ problem-1778-993923-pre  venice     10003892  2997771  120046704
                                                         72 rows omitted

When you get this dataframe you can sort through it to get the problems that you want. For example, if you want to filter problems based on their size you can apply this filter:

julia> filter_df = df[ ( df.nequ .≥ 50000 ) .& ( df.nvar .≤ 34000 ), :]
2×5 DataFrame
 Row │ name                  group    nequ   nvar   nnzj    
     │ String                String   Int64  Int64  Int64   
─────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────
   1 │ problem-49-7776-pre   ladybug  63686  23769   764232
   2 │ problem-73-11032-pre  ladybug  92244  33753  1106928

You can get the problem name directly from the dataframe:

julia> name = filter_df[1, :name]
"problem-49-7776-pre"

fetch_ba_name returns the path to the problem artifact. The artifact will download automatically:

julia> path = fetch_ba_name(name)
"C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\dd2da5f94014b5f9086a2b38a87f8c1bc171b9c2"

You can also get an array of the paths to an entire group of problems

julia> path = fetch_ba_group("ladybug")
30-element Vector{String}:
 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\dd2da5f94014b5f9086a2b38a87f8c1bc171b9c2"
 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\3d0853a3ca8e585814697fea9cd4d6956692e103"
 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\5c5c938c998d6c083f549bc584cfeb07bd296d89"

 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\00be55410c27068ec73261e122a39258100a1a11"
 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\0303e7ae8256c494c9da052d977277f21265899b"
 "C:\\Users\\xxxx\\.julia\\artifacts\\389ecea5c2f2e2b637a2b4439af0bd4ca98e6d84"

You can directly construct a nonlinear least-squares model based on NLPModels:

julia> model = BundleAdjustmentModel("problem-49-7776")
BundleAdjustmentModel{Float64, Vector{Float64}}

You can then evaluate the residual and jacobian (or their in-place version) from NLPModels:

julia> using NLPModels

julia> residual(model, model.meta.x0)
63686-element Vector{Float64}:
 -9.020226301243213
 11.263958304987227
  ⋮
 -0.01443314653496941
 -0.4486499211288866

julia> meta_nls = nls_meta(model)
julia> Fx = similar(model.meta.x0, meta_nls.nequ)
julia> residual!(model, model.meta.x0, Fx)
63686-element Vector{Float64}:
 -9.020226301243213
 11.263958304987227
  ⋮
 -0.01443314653496941
 -0.4486499211288866

You need to call jac_structure_residual! at least once before calling jac_op_residual!.

julia> meta_nls = nls_meta(model)
julia> rows = Vector{Int}(undef, meta_nls.nnzj)
julia> cols = Vector{Int}(undef, meta_nls.nnzj)
julia> jac_structure_residual!(model, rows, cols)
([1, 1 … 63686, 63686], [1, 2 … 23768, 23769])

You need to call jac_coord_residual! everytime before calling jac_op_residual!.

julia> vals = similar(model.meta.x0, meta_nls.nnzj)
julia> jac_coord_residual!(model, model.meta.x0, vals)
764232-element Vector{Float64}:
   545.1179297695714
    -5.058282392703829
     ⋮
     1.680958440896614
     0.06413511779846102

julia> Jv = similar(model.meta.x0, meta_nls.nequ)
julia> Jtv = similar(model.meta.x0, meta_nls.nvar)
julia> Jx = jac_op_residual!(model, rows, cols, vals, Jv, Jtv)

There is no second order information available for problems in this module.

Delete unneeded artifacts and free up disk space with delete_ba_artifact!:

julia> delete_ba_artifact!("problem-49-7776-pre")
[ Info: The artifact ladybug/problem-49-7776-pre.txt.bz2 has been deleted

Use delete_all_ba_artifacts! to delete all artifacts:

julia> delete_all_ba_artifacts!()
