scoringrules.logs_gev(obs: ArrayLike, shape: ArrayLike, location: ArrayLike = 0.0, scale: ArrayLike = 1.0, *, backend: Backend = None) → ArrayLike#

Compute the logarithmic score (LS) for the generalised extreme value (GEV) distribution.

This score is equivalent to the negative log likelihood of the GEV distribution

Parameters:
obsarray_like

The observed values.

shapearray_like

Shape parameter of the forecast GEV distribution.

locationarray_like

Location parameter of the forecast GEV distribution.

scalearray_like

Scale parameter of the forecast GEV distribution.

backendstr

The name of the backend used for computations. Defaults to ‘numba’ if available, else ‘numpy’.

Returns:
scorearray_like

The LS between obs and GEV(shape, location, scale).

Examples

>>> import scoringrules as sr
>>> sr.logs_gev(0.3, 0.1)
