pydda.cost_functions.J_function#
- pydda.cost_functions.J_function(winds, parameters)[source]#
- Calculates the total cost function. This typically does not need to be called directly as get_dd_wind_field is a wrapper around this function and - pydda.cost_functions.grad_J(). In order to add more terms to the cost function, modify this function and- pydda.cost_functions.grad_J().- Parameters:
- winds (1-D float array) – The wind field, flattened to 1-D for f_min. The total size of the array will be a 1D array of 3*nx*ny*nz elements. 
- parameters (DDParameters) – The parameters for the cost function evaluation as specified by the - pydda.retrieval.DDParameters()class.
 
- Returns:
- J (float) – The value of the cost function
