Initial Request
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
How do you specify ranges of thresholds in the config file? For example, I
tried:
wind_thresh = [ >=0.0 && <1.0, >=1.0 && <5.0, >=5.0 && <17.0, >=17.0
&& <24.0, >=24.0 && <33.0, >=33.0 && <500.0 ];
cat_thresh = [ >=0.0 && <1.0, >=1.0 && <5.0, >=5.0 && <17.0, >=17.0
&& <24.0, >=24.0 && <33.0, >=33.0 && <500.0 ];
Using the command:
point_stat /com2/gfs/prod/gfs.20170528/gfs.t00z.master.grb2f00
/ptmpp1/Rosalyn.MacCracken/MET_verif_data/GFS/data/hourly/
uv_wind_pb_2017052800_00.nc
/u/Rosalyn.MacCracken/MET_proc/oper_scr_progs/PointStatConfig_working
-outdir /ptmpp1/Rosalyn.MacCracken/MET_verif_data/GFS/data/hourly/ -v 2
for ranges of wind speeds 0 -1, 1-5, 5-17, 17-24, 24-33, and gt 33, and it
didn't work. I got the error:
DEBUG 1: Default Config File:
/awc/noscrub/Julie.Prestopnik/met/6.0/share/met/config/PointStatConfig_default
DEBUG 1: User Config File:
/u/Rosalyn.MacCracken/MET_proc/oper_scr_progs/PointStatConfig_working
ERROR :
ERROR : check_mctc_thresh() -> when verifying using multi-category
contingency tables, the thresholds must be monotonically increasing and be
of the same inequality type (lt, le, gt, or ge).
ERROR :
Is this incorrect, and how do I correct it?
Thanks in advance!
Roz

Subject: question on specifying threshold ranges in config file
From: Julie Prestopnik
Time: Thu Jun 01 09:30:27 2017
Hi Roz. Again, John would be the best person to answer your question.
While he is out, I'm hoping to help as best as I can.
I logged onto WCOSS and was able to reproduce the your error. I saw
in
your configuration file that you had commented out lines of the
following
format:
[ >=0.0, >=1.0, >=5.0, >=17.0, >=24.0, >=33.0 ];
in favor of
[ >=0.0&&<1.0, >=1.0&&<5.0, >=5.0&&<17.0, >=17.0&&<24.0,
>=24.0&&<33.0,
>=33.0&&<500.0 ];
When I switched to using the first format, I got a successful run. I
believe that specifying the 6 thresholds above results in a 7x7
contingency
table. The 7 categories would be:
1: less than 0
2: 0 to 1
3: 1 to 5
4: 5 to 17
5: 17 to 24
6: 24 to 33
7: greater than 33
I hope that helps. Please let us know what other questions you have.
Thanks,
Julie

Ah, so if I have thresholds of say,
<0, >=5, >=17
Those are actually ranges of:
0-5, 5-17, and >17
Correct?
So, the first way I did it actually gave me ranges, and not just how
many points are greater than that number, correct? Well, if it gives
me ranges, than I think I solved both of those two issues.

Hi Roz.
"Ah, so if I have thresholds of say, <0, >=5, >=17"
Not exactly, because it wouldn't work with "<0" ("the thresholds must
be
monotonically increasing and be of the same inequality type (lt, le,
gt, or
ge).").
But, if you had >=0, >=5, >=17 then those would be ranges of:
1: less than 0
2: 0 - 5
3: 5 - 17
4: greater than 17
"So, the first way I did it actually gave me ranges, and not just how
many
points are greater than that number, correct?"
Yes.
Great! I'll go ahead and close this ticket. Please open a new ticket
with
any other questions you may have.
Thanks,
Julie

Oh, great! Thanks so much for your help. That answers both
questions. You can close both tickets.
