How many arguments does a function require, and how to use that in `Manipulate`


The goal is to vary the order parameters in wavelet transforms in the Manipulate environment. The various transformations have arguments of different rank. For example,


HaarWavelet[] has no order argument.


DaubechiesWavelet[m] has a single order argument m and the desire is to present choices for m.


BiorthogonalSplineWavelet[m,n] has an order parameter m and a dual order parameter n and the desire is to let the user control m and n.


The current state of my effort is this:


data = DiskMatrix[10]; Manipulate[ dwt = DiscreteWaveletTransform[dat32, wavelet]; gdwd = WaveletMatrixPlot[dwt] , {wavelet, {HaarWavelet[], DaubechiesWavelet[], MeyerWavelet[]}}]


enter image description here



The different transforms can be selected, but there is no capability to change the order parameters. How can order parameters be introduced?



Answer



I'm pretty sure there ought to be something cleaner. While we wait for a better answer, you may use this to return the minimum and maximum number of arguments allowed for each wavelet:


nArgs[fun_] := 
 StringCases[ToString@DownValues@fun, 
            Shortest["ArgumentCountQ"~~__~~(n1:NumberString)~~__~~ (n2:NumberString)] :> 
            ToExpression[{n1, n2}]]


{#, nArgs@#} & /@ ToExpression /@ Names["*Wavelet"]


(*
{{BattleLemarieWavelet, {{2, 2}}}, 
 {BiorthogonalSplineWavelet, {{2, 2}}}, 
 {CDFWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {CoifletWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {DaubechiesWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {DGaussianWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {GaborWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {HaarWavelet, {{0, 0}}}, 

 {MexicanHatWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {MeyerWavelet, {{2, 2}}}, 
 {MorletWavelet, {{0, 0}}}, 
 {PaulWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {ReverseBiorthogonalSplineWavelet, {{2, 2}}}, 
 {ShannonWavelet, {{1, 1}}}, 
 {SymletWavelet, {{1, 1}}}}
*)

So:



m[fun_] := nArgs[fun][[1, 2]]
d = DiskMatrix[10];
Manipulate[
 WaveletMatrixPlot@DiscreteWaveletTransform[d, wv[Sequence @@ x[[;; m@wv]]]],
 {{x, {1, 1}}, ControlType -> None},
 {wv, {HaarWavelet, DaubechiesWavelet, MeyerWavelet}}, 
 Dynamic@Panel@Grid[{Slider[Dynamic@x[[#]], {0, 10, 1}], x[[#]]} & /@ Range@m@wv]]

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

What is and isn't a valid variable specification for Manipulate?

I have an expression whose terms have arguments (representing subscripts), like this: myExpr = A[0] + V[1,T] I would like to put it inside a Manipulate to see its value as I move around the parameters. (The goal is eventually to plot it wrt one of the variables inside.) However, Mathematica complains when I set V[1,T] as a manipulated variable: Manipulate[Evaluate[myExpr], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, T], 0, 1}] (*Manipulate::vsform: Manipulate argument {V[1,T],0,1} does not have the correct form for a variable specification. >> *) As a workaround, if I get rid of the symbol T inside the argument, it works fine: Manipulate[ Evaluate[myExpr /. T -> 15], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, 15], 0, 1}] Why this behavior? Can anyone point me to the documentation that says what counts as a valid variable? And is there a way to get Manpiulate to accept an expression with a symbolic argument as a variable? Investigations I've done so far: I tried using variableQ from this answer , but it says V[1...
