ptypy.experiment.UCL.UCLLaserScan#

class ptypy.experiment.UCL.UCLLaserScan(pars=None, **kwargs)#

Bases: PtyScan

Laser imaging setup (UCL) data preparation class.

__init__(pars=None, **kwargs)#

Initializes parent class.

Methods

__init__([pars])

Initializes parent class.

auto(frames)

Repeated calls to this function will process the data.

check([frames, start])

Override in subclass for custom implementation

correct(raw, weights, common)

Override in subclass for custom implementation

get_data_chunk(chunksize[, start])

This function prepares a container that is compatible to data package.

initialize()

Begins the Data preparation and intended as the first method that does read-write access on (large) data.

load(indices)

Load frames given by the indices.

load_common()

Load dark and flat.

load_positions()

Load the positions and return as an (N,2) array.

load_weight()

For now, this function will be used to load the mask.

post_initialize()

Placeholder.

report([what, shout])

Make a report on internal structure.

Attributes

CODES

DEFAULT

Param container that stores all input parameters.

METAKEYS = ['version', 'num_frames', 'label', 'shape', 'psize', 'energy', 'center', 'distance']#

Keys to store in meta param

auto(frames)#

Repeated calls to this function will process the data.

Parameters:

frames (int) – Number of frames to process.

Returns:

one of the following
  • WAIT, if scan’s end is not reached, but no data could be prepared yet

  • EOS, if scan’s end is reached

  • a data package otherwise

Return type:

variable

check(frames=None, start=None)#

Override in subclass for custom implementation

This method checks how many frames the preparation routine may process, starting from frame start at a request of frames.

This method is supposed to return the number of accessible frames for preparation and should determine if data acquisition for this scan is finished. Its main purpose is to allow for a data acquisition scheme, where the number of frames is not known when PtyScan is constructed, i.e. a data stream or an on-the-fly reconstructions.

Note

If num_frames is set on __init__() of the subclass, this method can be left as it is.

Parameters:
  • frames (int or None) – Number of frames requested.

  • start (int or None) – Scanpoint index to start checking from.

Returns:

  • frames_accessible (int) – Number of frames readable.

  • end_of_scan (int or None) – is one of the following, - 0, end of the scan is not reached - 1, end of scan will be reached or is - None, can’t say

correct(raw, weights, common)#

Override in subclass for custom implementation

Place holder for dark and flatfield correction. If load already provides data in the form of photon counts, and no frame specific weight is needed, this method may be left as it is.

May get merged with load in future.

Returns:

data, weights – Flat and dark-corrected data dictionaries. These dictionaries must have the same keys as the input raw and contain corrected frames (data) and statistical weights (weights) which are zero for invalid or masked pixel other the number of detector counts that correspond to one photon count

Return type:

dict

get_data_chunk(chunksize, start=None)#

This function prepares a container that is compatible to data package.

This function is called from the auto() function.

info#

Param container that stores all input parameters.

initialize()#

Begins the Data preparation and intended as the first method that does read-write access on (large) data. Does the following:

load(indices)#

Load frames given by the indices.

load_common()#

Load dark and flat.

load_positions()#

Load the positions and return as an (N,2) array.

load_weight()#

For now, this function will be used to load the mask.

Function description see parent class.

min_frames#

Minimum number of frames to prepare / load with call of auto()

num_frames#

Total number of frames to prepare / load. Set by num_frames

post_initialize()#

Placeholder. Called at the end of initialize() by all processes.

Use this method to benefit from ‘hard-to-retrieve but now available’ information after initialize.

report(what=None, shout=True)#

Make a report on internal structure.
