simpeg.maps.LogMap.deriv#

LogMap.deriv(m, v=None)[source]#

Derivative of mapping with respect to the input parameters.

For a mapping u(m) that computes the natural logarithm for each parameter in the model m, i.e.:

u(m)=log(m)

the derivative of the mapping with respect to the model is a diagonal matrix of the form:

um=diag(m1)
Parameters:
m(nP) numpy.ndarray

A vector representing a set of model parameters

v(nP) numpy.ndarray

If not None, the method returns the derivative times the vector v

Returns:
scipy.sparse.csr_matrix

Derivative of the mapping with respect to the model parameters. If the input argument v is not None, the method returns the derivative times the vector v.
