At time 0 we have an set of replicas and an (ordered) set of ensembles. We
could label these however we liked, but for (in)convenience we use 0-(n-1)
for both. The rows of the matrices in the *.xvg files change with time. At
time 2, replicas in ensemble 0 and 1 have exchanged, so replica 0 is now in
ensemble 1. At time 4, replicas in ensemble 1 and 2 have exchanged. So
replica 0 is now in ensemble 2, which is expressed by 0 in the third column
of the third row of replica_index.xvg. The same condition is expressed by
the first column of the third row of replica_temp.xvg, where you will find
2, also expressing that replica 0 is in ensemble 2 at time 4. The columns
of the two matrices allow you to see either the profile of which replica
was in this ensemble at which time, or which ensemble this replica was in
at which time.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your detailed response to my query. I understood the concept
of ordered arrangement of ensembles in replica_index.xvg. But I have a
doubt, you said that  *At time 4, replicas in ensemble 1 and 2 have
exchanged. So replica 0 is now in ensemble 2, which is expressed by 0 in
the third column*
*of the third row of replica_index.xvg.* 

This is fine , as the output of replica_index is :-
4   12*0 *   3456789   10   11   13
  12

But, i didn't understand this  The same condition is expressed by the
first column of the third row of replica_temp.xvg, where you will find 2,
also expressing that replica 0 is in ensemble 2 at time 4. Here's the
output for replica_temp . The first column third row is 2, its ok, but, its
shows that replica 0 is in ensemble 1 instead of 2.

In addition to this, in my last mail I showed the temp graph for all
replicas. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c8gp584v1hvlbx/replica_temp.png) .
Not all replicas visit all the temperatures, but some of them visit all the
temperatures. Is it sufficient to move with the further analysis , as in
some papers they show that some replicas visit all the temp which means
that the sufficient sampling has been achieved. In my case this is true for
some of the replicas and the average acceptance ratio achieved was 0.22 ??

No, if the rows of both matrices describe time, and there are two different
matrices for the same exchange set, then the information described by a
column must differ, like I said last email. You are applying the same
interpretation to a column from either matrix.

I've answered this question several times. Each replica merely visiting
each temperature means nothing for converged sampling. There's lots of
literature here, including stuff by me ;-) A balance of replicas visiting
ensembles is necessary but not sufficient for the kind of replica flow that
would be necessary for generalized convergence. One can shrug one's
shoulders at some point and say things are probably as good as they'll get
for reasonable cost, but your reviewer might disagree with you. Convergence
of sampling at a single temperature can be assessed in a similar way as for
non-REMD simulations, caveat that the exchange events pretty much stop you
using metrics based on correlation time. If you want to know how to do
things properly, you need to do some reading.

 shoulders at some point and say things are probably as good as they'll get
 for reasonable cost, but your reviewer might disagree with you. Convergence
 of sampling at a single temperature can be assessed in a similar way as for
 non-REMD simulations, caveat that the exchange events pretty much stop you
 using metrics based on correlation time. If you want to know how to do
 things properly, you need to do some reading.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for the advice.  I have not understood the things properly,
especially the convergence of REMD. I got two relevant papers : 1. Convergence
of replica exchange molecular dynamics
2. Convergence and sampling efficiency in replica exchange simulations of
peptide folding in explicit solvent. If you can provide better reference
then this ...


Thank you francesco for the option. Indeed I was missing a a very imp.
option while plotting the data.

   Dear Sir,
  
   Thank you for your detailed response to my query. I understood the
  concept
   of ordered arrangement of ensembles in replica_index.xvg. But I have a
   doubt, you said that  *At time 4, replicas in ensemble 1 and 2 have
   exchanged. So replica 0 is now in ensemble 2, which is expressed by 0
 in
   the third column*
   *of the third row of replica_index.xvg.* 
  
   This is fine , as the output of replica_index is :-
   4   12*0 *   3456789   10   11
  13
 12
  
   But, i didn't understand this  The same condition is expressed by the
   first column of the third row of replica_temp.xvg, where you will find
 2,
   also expressing that replica 0 is in ensemble 2 at time 4. Here's the
   output for replica_temp . The first column third row is 2, its ok, but,
  its
   shows that replica 0 is in ensemble 1 instead of 2.
  
 
  No, if the rows of both matrices describe time, and there are two
 different
  matrices for the same exchange set, then the information described by a
  column must differ, like I said last email. You are applying the same
  interpretation to a column from either matrix.

   In addition to this, in my last mail I showed the temp graph for all
   replicas. (https://www.dropbox.com/s/0c8gp584v1hvlbx/replica_temp.png)
 .
   Not all replicas visit all the temperatures, but some of them visit all
  the
   temperatures. Is it sufficient to move with the further analysis , as
 in
   some papers they show that some replicas visit all the temp which means
   that the sufficient sampling has been achieved. In my case this is true
  for
   some of the replicas and the average acceptance ratio achieved was 0.22
  ??
  
 
  I've answered this question several times. Each replica merely visiting
  each temperature means nothing for converged sampling. There's lots of
  literature here, including stuff by me ;-) A balance of replicas visiting
  ensembles is necessary but not sufficient for the kind of replica flow
 that
  would be necessary for generalized convergence. One can shrug one's
  shoulders at some point and say things are probably as good as they'll
 get
  for reasonable cost, but your reviewer might disagree with you.

Re: [gmx-users] Re: REMD analysis

2013-05-23 Thread bharat gupta
Dear Sir,

I checked the md.log and replica_temp.xvg file , what I understood is that
the 'x' means swapping and replica are written that way.
For eg.
Replica exchange at step 1000 time 2
Repl 0 - 1  dE = -1.067e+00
Repl ex  0 x  123456789   10   11   12 x 13
Repl pr   1.0   .01   .68   .21   .05   .09   .26

output in replica_temp file will be
1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 13 12

It means that replica 1 at higher temp. exchange with the one in lower temp
0.

Replica exchange at step 2000 time 4
Repl ex  01 x  23456789   10   11   12   13
Repl pr.91   .32   .00   .07   .18   .08

output in replica_temp file will be
1 0 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 13 12
2 0 1 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 13 12

[order is from low to high temp]

But I am not able to understand for replica_index file :-

for the above two time steps here's the output :-
0   0123456789   10   11   12
13
2   1023456789   10   11   13
12
4   1203456789   10   11   13
12

The time step four is different here, I don't know why ?? Ideally the
output should be same in both files, I suppose ??

Also, I tried to plot for each column separately , here I want to clarify
that whether each column represents the time evolution of each replica over
time. For eg. the second column should represent the temp evolution for
replica No. 0 wrt to time. Presuming that I understood it correctly, I
plotted the temp. evolution over time of all replicas separately . Here's
the replica_temp plot for replicas 0 to 13.

It's a demux. One might want trajectories to be at constant temperature, or
constant replica. The two files define the (mutually inverse) mappings
between those representations. So one file tells you which replica is at
each temperature, and the other which temperature holds each replica.
Nobody's ever written down anything about which is which, so like I said a
week back, look at the first few exchanges, see how those are represented
in the files, and decide for yourself which file's columns/rows have useful
information you want to look at. And do write that decision down! :-)

Re: [gmx-users] Re: REMD analysis

2013-05-18 Thread bharat gupta
Dear Sir,

My main objective of carrying out REMD is to study peptide folding and if
possible to get some insight in protein design and folding. I read some
articles related to my work and they always show temp (replica_index)
graphs for 2-3 replicas , saying that the sufficient sampling had been
achieved. In my case I checked the replica_temp for first three replicas (
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gkbu0g0e1r37l57/replica_temp0.png) (
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sffq8rwghjublu0/replica_temp1.png)
 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ulccw8xabj66ktm/replica_temp2.png)

Almost all the three graphs are similar and the last 15ns shows that there
is no enough exchange (if I have analyzed correctly) ?? In this case the
acceptance ratio was fine and PE overlap was also good, but problem lies
with efficient sampling ?? What shall I do in such a case ??

 That's nice. You need to decide what you need to do about it if you want

  Another question is about your last reply to my thread exchange
 acceptance

  optimal sampling efficiency) ??
 

 Ah, now here's the real question :-) Spacing the replicas for optimal
 *flow* is a difficult problem, even for toy peptides, see e.g. papers by
 Nadler and Hansmann. Merely accepting exchanges does not imply flow. The
 belief is that getting flow enhances sampling, but the latter is hard to
 demonstrate without showing that simulation time to converged sampling
 actually reduces. I'm not aware of anybody who's actually done that - but
 it would certainly be an advantage if your application is interested in
 data at a range of temperatures.

Like I've been saying, acceptance does not assure enhanced sampling.

Do some of the reading I've been suggesting? One of the papers shows that
it is hard to get good sampling with just Met-enkephalin unless you design
the temperature range for it.

Well use a regular plotting software and look at it or do some more elaborated

 Now, how to find the potential energy overlap for each replica??.. I have
 obtained the pot. energy for each replica separately..

What do you not like in your distributions? What are your looking for in these 
distributions? 

I am not sure what you are expecting from the list here … your distributions 
are fine, but, as Mark noted, it does not mean your simulation and sampling 
will be optimal …

 Dear Sir,
 
 I tried plotting the PE overlap using the following way :-
 
 1. extract PE of each replica using g_energy
 2. get the PE distribution using g_analyze -f potential_0.xvg -dist pot0.xvg
 3. used xmgrace to plot all the PE distribution graphs together.
 
 The same thing I did for temperature distribution for each replica.
 
 Here's the file for both PE overlap (
 https://www.dropbox.com/s/895f1bi0hkuy884/pe_dist.png)
 temp distribution (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ed66uop16blgqwa/temp_dist.png)
 Is this the correct way ??
 
 
 But the plot doesnot look like this (

 have to normalize the data and then plot in order to get a smooth plot like
 this one??

Histograms 101: The smaller your bin width, the more variations you see.
The more samples you have, the fewer variations you see. A histogram that
does not mention either of this is a work of fiction.

The number of degrees of freedom in the potential energy distribution is
also a factor in whether the distribution will look smooth for a given bin
width and number of samples.

Dear Sir,

The the default bin width is 0.1 which I used for plotting the graphs.
Another question is about your last reply to my thread exchange acceptance
is a poor proxy for sampling efficiency. Sorry to ask this, but how to
check whether the sampling efficiency is optimal or not (what should be
optimal sampling efficiency) ??

That's nice. You need to decide what you need to do about it if you want
graphs that look like those you see reported :-)

Ah, now here's the real question :-) Spacing the replicas for optimal
*flow* is a difficult problem, even for toy peptides, see e.g. papers by
Nadler and Hansmann. Merely accepting exchanges does not imply flow. The
belief is that getting flow enhances sampling, but the latter is hard to
demonstrate without showing that simulation time to converged sampling
actually reduces. I'm not aware of anybody who's actually done that - but
it would certainly be an advantage if your application is interested in
data at a range of temperatures.
