EllipticalGaussian2DKernel¶
- class radio_beam.EllipticalGaussian2DKernel(stddev_maj, stddev_min, position_angle, support_scaling=8, **kwargs)[source]¶
Bases:
Kernel2D
2D Elliptical Gaussian filter kernel.
The Gaussian filter is a filter with great smoothing properties. It is isotropic and does not produce artifacts.
- Parameters:
- stddev_majfloat
Standard deviation of the Gaussian kernel in direction 1
- stddev_minfloat
Standard deviation of the Gaussian kernel in direction 1
- position_anglefloat
Position angle of the elliptical gaussian
- x_sizeodd int, optional
Size in x direction of the kernel array. Default = support_scaling * stddev.
- y_sizeodd int, optional
Size in y direction of the kernel array. Default = support_scaling * stddev.
- support_scalingint
The amount to scale the stddev to determine the size of the kernel
- modestr, optional
- One of the following discretization modes:
- ‘center’ (default)
Discretize model by taking the value at the center of the bin.
- ‘linear_interp’
Discretize model by performing a bilinear interpolation between the values at the corners of the bin.
- ‘oversample’
Discretize model by taking the average on an oversampled grid.
- ‘integrate’
Discretize model by integrating the model over the bin.
- factornumber, optional
Factor of oversampling. Default factor = 10.

Attributes Documentation
- array¶
Filter kernel array.
- center¶
Index of the kernel center.
- dimension¶
Kernel dimension.
- is_bool¶
Indicates if kernel is bool.
If the kernel is bool the multiplication in the convolution could be omitted, to increase the performance.
- model¶
Kernel response model.
- separable¶
Indicates if the filter kernel is separable.
A 2D filter is separable, when its filter array can be written as the outer product of two 1D arrays.
If a filter kernel is separable, higher dimension convolutions will be performed by applying the 1D filter array consecutively on every dimension. This is significantly faster, than using a filter array with the same dimension.
- shape¶
Shape of the kernel array.
- truncation¶
Absolute deviation of the sum of the kernel array values from one.
Methods Documentation
- normalize(mode='integral')¶
Normalize the filter kernel.
- Parameters:
- mode{‘integral’, ‘peak’}
- One of the following modes:
- ‘integral’ (default)
Kernel is normalized such that its integral = 1.
- ‘peak’
Kernel is normalized such that its peak = 1.
