hyperspy package¶

Subpackages¶

Submodules¶

hyperspy.Release module¶

hyperspy.api module¶

All public packages, functions and classes are available in this module.

When starting HyperSpy using the hyperspy script (e.g. by executing hyperspy in a console, using the context menu entries or using the links in the Start Menu, the api package is imported in the user namespace as hs, i.e. by executing the following:

>>> import hyperspy.api as hs

(Note that code snippets are indicated by three greater-than signs)

We recommend to import the HyperSpy API as above also when doing it manually. The docstring examples assume that hyperspy has been imported as hs, numpy as np and matplotlib.pyplot as plt.

Functions:

create_model

Create a model for curve fitting.

get_configuration_directory_path

Return the configuration directory path.

load

Load data into BaseSignal instances from supported files.

preferences

Preferences class instance to configure the default value of different parameters. It has a CLI and a GUI that can be started by execting its gui method i.e. preferences.gui().

stack

Stack several signals.

interactive

Define operations that are automatically recomputed on event changes.

set_log_level

Convenience function to set HyperSpy’s the log level.

The api package contains the following submodules/packages:

signals

Signal classes which are the core of HyperSpy. Use this modules to create Signal instances manually from numpy arrays. Note that to load data from supported file formats is more convenient to use the load function.

model

Contains the components module with components that can be used to create a model for curve fitting.

eds

Functions for energy dispersive X-rays data analysis.

material

Useful functions for materials properties and elements database that includes physical properties and X-rays and EELS energies.

plot

Plotting functions that operate on multiple signals.

datasets

Example datasets.

roi

Region of interests (ROIs) that operate on BaseSignal instances and include widgets for interactive operation.

samfire

SAMFire utilities (strategies, Pool, fit convergence tests)

For more details see their doctrings.

hyperspy.api.get_configuration_directory_path()¶

hyperspy.axes module¶

class hyperspy.axes.AxesManager(axes_list)¶

Bases: traits.has_traits.HasTraits

Contains and manages the data axes.

It supports indexing, slicing, subscriptins and iteration. As an iterator, iterate over the navigation coordinates returning the current indices. It can only be indexed and sliced to access the DataAxis objects that it contains. Standard indexing and slicing follows the “natural order” as in Signal, i.e. [nX, nY, ...,sX, sY,...] where n indicates a navigation axis and s a signal axis. In addition AxesManager support indexing using complex numbers a + bj, where b can be one of 0, 1, 2 and 3 and a a valid index. If b is 3 AxesManager is indexed using the order of the axes in the array. If b is 1(2), indexes only the navigation(signal) axes in the natural order. In addition AxesManager supports subscription using axis name.

coordinates¶: tuple – Get and set the current coordinates if the navigation dimension is not 0. If the navigation dimension is 0 it raises AttributeError when attempting to set its value.

indices : tuple: Get and set the current indices if the navigation dimension is not 0. If the navigation dimension is 0 it raises AttributeError when attempting to set its value.
signal_axes, navigation_axes : list: Contain the corresponding DataAxis objects

class hyperspy.component.NoneFloat(default_value=<traits.trait_handlers.NoDefaultSpecified object>, **metadata)¶

Bases: traits.trait_types.CFloat

default_value = None¶

validate(object, name, value)¶

class hyperspy.component.Parameter¶

Bases: traits.has_traits.HasTraits

Model parameter

value¶: float or array – The value of the parameter for the current location. The value for other locations is stored in map.

bmin, bmax: float – Lower and upper bounds of the parameter value.

twin¶: {None, Parameter} – If it is not None, the value of the current parameter is a function of the given Parameter. The function is by default the identity function, but it can be defined by twin_function

twin_function¶: function – Function that, if selt.twin is not None, takes self.twin.value as its only argument and returns a float or array that is returned when getting Parameter.value

twin_inverse_function¶: function – The inverse of twin_function. If it is None then it is not possible to set the value of the parameter twin by setting the value of the current parameter.

ext_force_positive¶: bool – If True, the parameter value is set to be the absolute value of the input value i.e. if we set Parameter.value = -3, the value stored is 3 instead. This is useful to bound a value to be positive in an optimization without actually using an optimizer that supports bounding.

ext_bounded¶: bool – Similar to ext_force_positive, but in this case the bounds are defined by bmin and bmax. It is a better idea to use an optimizer that supports bounding though.

as_signal(field = 'values')¶: Get a parameter map as a signal object

plot()¶: Plots the value of the Parameter at all locations.

Parameters: fullcopy (Bool (optional, False)) – Copies of objects are stored, not references. If any found, functions will be pickled and signals converted to dictionaries

Returns:

dic –

_id_name : string: _id_name of the original parameter, used to create the dictionary. Has to match with the self._id_name
_twins : list: a list of ids of the twins of the parameter
_whitelist : dictionary: a dictionary, which keys are used as keywords to match with the parameter attributes. For more information see hyperspy.misc.export_dictionary.export_to_dictionary()

any field from _whitelist.keys() *

Return type: dictionary with the following keys:

as_signal(field='values')

Get a parameter map as a signal object.

Please note that this method only works when the navigation dimension is greater than 0.

hyperspy.components1d module¶

Components that can be used to define a 1D model for e.g. curve fitting.

There are some components that are only useful for one particular kind of signal and therefore their name are preceded by the signal name: eg. eels_cl_edge.

Writing a new template is really easy, just edit _template.py and maybe take a look to the other components.

hyperspy.decorators module¶

hyperspy.decorators.interactive_range_selector(f)¶

hyperspy.decorators.only_interactive(f)¶

hyperspy.decorators.simple_decorator(decorator)¶

This decorator can be used to turn simple functions into well-behaved decorators, so long as the decorators are fairly simple. If a decorator expects a function and returns a function (no descriptors), and if it doesn’t modify function attributes or docstring, then it is eligible to use this. Simply apply @simple_decorator to your decorator and it will automatically preserve the docstring and function attributes of functions to which it is applied.

This decorator was taken from: http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonDecoratorLibrary

hyperspy.events module¶

class hyperspy.events.Event(doc='', arguments=None)¶

Bases: object

arguments¶

connect(function, kwargs='all')¶

Connects a function to the event. Arguments: ———- function : callable

The function to call when the event triggers.

kwargs : {tuple or list, dictionary, ‘all’, ‘auto’}, default “all”: If “all”, all the trigger keyword arguments are passed to the function. If a list or tuple of strings, only those keyword arguments that are in the tuple or list are passed. If empty, no keyword argument is passed. If dictionary, the keyword arguments of trigger are mapped as indicated in the dictionary. For example, {“a” : “b”} maps the trigger argument “a” to the function argument “b”.

See also

disconnect()

connected¶: Connected functions.

disconnect(function)¶

Disconnects a function from the event. The passed function will be disconnected irregardless of which ‘nargs’ argument was passed to connect().

If you only need to temporarily prevent a function from being called, single callback suppression is supported by the suppress_callback context manager. :param function: :type function: function :param return_connection_kwargs: If True, returns the kwargs that would reconnect the function as

it was.

See also

connect(), suppress_callback()

suppress()¶

Use this function with a ‘with’ statement to temporarily suppress all events in the container. When the ‘with’ lock completes, the old suppression values will be restored.

>>> with obj.events.myevent.suppress():
...     # These would normally both trigger myevent:
...     obj.val_a = a
...     obj.val_b = b
>>> # Trigger manually once:
>>> obj.events.myevent.trigger()

suppress_callback(function)¶

Use this function with a ‘with’ statement to temporarily suppress a single callback from being called. All other connected callbacks will trigger. When the ‘with’ lock completes, the old suppression value will be restored.

>>> with obj.events.myevent.suppress_callback(f):
...     # Events will trigger as normal, but `f` will not be called
...     obj.val_a = a
...     obj.val_b = b
>>> # Here, `f` will be called as before:
>>> obj.events.myevent.trigger()

See also

suppress(), Events.suppress()

trigger(**kwargs)¶: Triggers the event. If the event is suppressed, this does nothing. Otherwise it calls all the connected functions with the arguments as specified when connected.

class hyperspy.interactive.Interactive(f, event='auto', recompute_out_event='auto', *args, **kwargs)¶

Bases: object

Chainable operations on Signals that update on events.

recompute_out()¶

update()¶

hyperspy.interactive.interactive(f, event='auto', recompute_out_event='auto', *args, **kwargs)¶

Update operation result when a given event is triggered.

Parameters:

f (function or method) – A function that returns an object and that optionally can place the result in an object given through the out keyword.
event ({Event, "auto", None, iterable of events}) – Update the result of the operation when the event is triggered. If “auto” and f is a method of a Signal class instance its data_changed event is selected if the function takes an out argument. If None, update is not connected to any event. The default is “auto”. It is also possible to pass an iterable of events, in which case all the events are connected.
recompute_out_event ({Event, "auto", None, iterable of events}) – Optional argument. If supplied, this event causes a full recomputation of a new object. Both the data and axes of the new object are then copied over to the existing out object. Only useful for Signal or other objects that have an attribute axes_manager. If “auto” and f is a method of a Signal class instance its AxesManager any_axis_chaged event is selected. Otherwise the Signal data_changed event is selected. If None, recompute_out is not connected to any event. The default is “auto”. It is also possible to pass an iterable of events, in which case all the events are connected.

*args, **kwargs: Arguments and keyword arguments to be passed to f.

hyperspy.io module¶

hyperspy.io.assign_signal_subclass(dtype, signal_dimension, signal_type='')¶

Returns:
Return type:	Signal or subclass

hyperspy.io.dict2signal(signal_dict)¶

Create a signal (or subclass) instance defined by a dictionary :param signal_dict: :type signal_dict: dictionary

Returns:	s
Return type:	Signal or subclass

hyperspy.io.load(filenames=None, signal_type=None, stack=False, stack_axis=None, new_axis_name='stack_element', mmap=False, mmap_dir=None, **kwds)¶

Load potentially multiple supported file into an hyperspy structure Supported formats: HDF5, msa, Gatan dm3, Ripple (rpl+raw), Bruker bcf, FEI ser and emi, hdf5, SEMPER unf, EMD, tif and a number of image formats. Any extra keyword is passed to the corresponsing reader. For available options see their individual documentation. :param filenames: The filename to be loaded. If None, a window will open to select

a file to load. If a valid filename is passed in that single file is loaded. If multiple file names are passed in a list, a list of objects or a single object containing the data of the individual files stacked are returned. This behaviour is controlled by the stack parameter (see bellow). Multiple files can be loaded by using simple shell-style wildcards, e.g. ‘my_file*.msa’ loads all the files that starts by ‘my_file’ and has the ‘.msa’ extension.

Parameters:	signal_type ({None, "EELS", "EDS_SEM", "EDS_TEM", "", str}) – The acronym that identifies the signal type. The value provided may determine the Signal subclass assigned to the data. If None the value is read/guessed from the file. Any other value overrides the value stored in the file if any. For electron energy-loss spectroscopy use “EELS”. For energy dispersive x-rays use “EDS_TEM” if acquired from an electron-transparent sample — as it is usually the case in a transmission electron microscope (TEM) —, “EDS_SEM” if acquired from a non electron-transparent sample — as it is usually the case in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) —. If “” (empty string) the value is not read from the file and is considered undefined. stack (bool) – If True and multiple filenames are passed in, stacking all the data into a single object is attempted. All files must match in shape. It is possible to store the data in a memory mapped temporary file instead of in memory setting mmap_mode. The title is set to the name of the folder containing the files. stack_axis ({None, int, str}) – If None, the signals are stacked over a new axis. The data must have the same dimensions. Otherwise the signals are stacked over the axis given by its integer index or its name. The data must have the same shape, except in the dimension corresponding to axis. new_axis_name (string) – The name of the new axis when axis is None. If an axis with this name already exists it automatically append ‘-i’, where i are integers, until it finds a name that is not yet in use. mmap (bool) – If True and stack is True, then the data is stored in a memory-mapped temporary file.The memory-mapped data is stored on disk, and not directly loaded into memory. Memory mapping is especially useful for accessing small fragments of large files without reading the entire file into memory. mmap_dir (string) – If mmap_dir is not None, and stack and mmap are True, the memory mapped file will be created in the given directory, otherwise the default directory is used. load_to_memory (bool) – for HDF5 files, blockfiles and EMD files, if True (default) loads all data to memory. If False, enables only loading the data upon request mmap_mode ({'r', 'r+', 'c'}) – Used when loading blockfiles to determine which mode to use for when loading as memmap (i.e. when load_to_memory=False) print_info (bool) – For SEMPER unf- and EMD (Berkley)-files, if True (default is False) additional information read during loading is printed for a quick overview.
Returns:
Return type:	Signal instance or list of signal instances

Examples

Loading a single file providing the signal type: >>> d = hs.load(‘file.dm3’, signal_type=”EDS_TEM”)

Loading multiple files: >>> d = hs.load(‘file1.dm3’,’file2.dm3’) Loading multiple files matching the pattern: >>> d = hs.load(‘file*.dm3’)

hyperspy.io.load_with_reader(filename, reader, signal_type=None, **kwds)¶

hyperspy.io.save(filename, signal, overwrite=None, **kwds)¶

hyperspy.logger module¶

hyperspy.logger.set_log_level(level)¶

Convenience function to set the log level of all hyperspy modules.

Note: The log level of all other modules are left untouched.

Parameters:

level ({int | str}) –

The log level to set. Any values that logging.Logger.setLevel() accepts are valid. The default options are:

‘CRITICAL’

‘ERROR’

‘WARNING’

‘INFO’

‘DEBUG’

‘NOTSET’

For normal logging of hyperspy functions, you can set the log level like this:

>>> import hyperspy.api as hs
>>> hs.set_log_level('INFO')
>>> hs.load(r'my_file.dm3')
INFO:hyperspy.io_plugins.digital_micrograph:DM version: 3
INFO:hyperspy.io_plugins.digital_micrograph:size 4796607 B
INFO:hyperspy.io_plugins.digital_micrograph:Is file Little endian? True
INFO:hyperspy.io_plugins.digital_micrograph:Total tags in root group: 15
<Signal2D, title: My file, dimensions: (|1024, 1024)>

If you need the log output during the initial import of hyperspy, you should set the log level like this:

>>> from hyperspy.logger import set_log_level
>>> set_log_level('DEBUG')
>>> import hyperspy.api as hs
DEBUG:hyperspy.gui:Loading hyperspy.gui
DEBUG:hyperspy.gui:Current MPL backend: TkAgg
DEBUG:hyperspy.gui:Current ETS toolkit: qt4
DEBUG:hyperspy.gui:Current ETS toolkit set to: null

hyperspy.model module¶

class hyperspy.model.BaseModel¶

Bases: list

Model and data fitting tools applicable to signals of both one and two dimensions.

Models of one-dimensional signals should use the Model1D and models of two-dimensional signals should use the Model2D.

A model is constructed as a linear combination of components that are added to the model using append() or extend(). There are many predifined components available in the in the components module. If needed, new components can be created easily using the code of existing components as a template.

Once defined, the model can be fitted to the data using fit() or multifit(). Once the optimizer reaches the convergence criteria or the maximum number of iterations the new value of the component parameters are stored in the components.

It is possible to access the components in the model by their name or by the index in the model. An example is given at the end of this docstring.

signal¶: BaseSignal instance – It contains the data to fit.

chisq¶: A BaseSignal of floats – Chi-squared of the signal (or np.nan if not yet fit)

dof¶: A BaseSignal of integers – Degrees of freedom of the signal (0 if not yet fit)

red_chisq¶: BaseSignal instance – Reduced chi-squared.

components¶: ModelComponents instance – The components of the model are attributes of this class. This provides a convinient way to access the model components when working in IPython as it enables tab completion.

append()¶: Append one component to the model.

extend()¶: Append multiple components to the model.

remove()¶: Remove component from model.

as_signal()¶: Generate a BaseSignal instance (possible multidimensional) from the model.

set_signal_range, remove_signal range, reset_signal_range,

add signal_range.: Customize the signal range to fit.

fit, multifit: Fit the model to the data at the current position or the full dataset.

save_parameters2file, load_parameters_from_file: Save/load the parameter values to/from a file.

plot()¶: Plot the model and the data.

enable_plot_components, disable_plot_components: Plot each component separately. (Use after plot.)

set_current_values_to()¶: Set the current value of all the parameters of the given component as the value for all the dataset.

export_results()¶: Save the value of the parameters in separate files.

plot_results()¶: Plot the value of all parameters at all positions.

print_current_values()¶: Print the value of the parameters at the current position.

enable_adjust_position, disable_adjust_position: Enable/disable interactive adjustment of the position of the components that have a well defined position. (Use after plot).

fit_component()¶: Fit just the given component in the given signal range, that can be set interactively.

set_parameters_not_free, set_parameters_free: Fit the free status of several components and parameters at once.

set_parameters_value()¶: Set the value of a parameter in components in a model to a specified value.

as_dictionary()¶: Exports the model to a dictionary that can be saved in a file.

fetch_stored_values(only_fixed=False)

Fetch the value of the parameters that has been previously stored.

Parameters:	only_fixed (bool) – If True, only the fixed parameters are fetched.

See also

store_current_values()

fit(fitter=None, method='ls', grad=False, bounded=False, ext_bounding=False, update_plot=False, **kwargs)¶

Fits the model to the experimental data.

The chi-squared, reduced chi-squared and the degrees of freedom are computed automatically when fitting. They are stored as signals, in the chisq, red_chisq and dof. Note that unless metadata.Signal.Noise_properties.variance contains an accurate estimation of the variance of the data, the chi-squared and reduced chi-squared cannot be computed correctly. This is also true for homocedastic noise.

Parameters:

fitter ({None, "leastsq", "mpfit", "odr", "Nelder-Mead",) –

“Powell”, “CG”, “BFGS”, “Newton-CG”, “L-BFGS-B”, “TNC”,

“Differential Evolution”}

The optimization algorithm used to perform the fitting. If None the fitter defined in preferences.Model.default_fitter is used.

“leastsq” performs least-squares optimization, and supports bounds on parameters.
“mpfit” performs least-squares using the Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm and supports bounds on parameters.

“odr” performs the optimization using the orthogonal distance regression algorithm. It does not support bounds.

“Nelder-Mead”, “Powell”, “CG”, “BFGS”, “Newton-CG”, “L-BFGS-B” and “TNC” are wrappers for scipy.optimize.minimize(). Only “L-BFGS-B” and “TNC” support bounds.

“Differential Evolution” is a global optimization method.

“leastsq”, “mpfit” and “odr” can estimate the standard deviation of the estimated value of the parameters if the “metada.Signal.Noise_properties.variance” attribute is defined. Note that if it is not defined, the standard deviation is estimated using a variance of 1. If the noise is heteroscedastic, this can result in a biased estimation of the parameter values and errors. If variance is a Signal instance of the same navigation_dimension as the signal, and method is “ls”, then weighted least squares is performed.
method ({'ls', 'ml'}) – Choose ‘ls’ (default) for least-squares and ‘ml’ for Poisson maximum likelihood estimation. The latter is not available when ‘fitter’ is “leastsq”, “odr” or “mpfit”.
grad (bool) – If True, the analytical gradient is used if defined to speed up the optimization.
bounded (bool) – If True performs bounded optimization if the fitter supports it.
update_plot (bool) – If True, the plot is updated during the optimization process. It slows down the optimization but it permits to visualize the optimization progress.
ext_bounding (bool) – If True, enforce bounding by keeping the value of the parameters constant out of the defined bounding area.
**kwargs (key word arguments) – Any extra key word argument will be passed to the chosen fitter. For more information read the docstring of the optimizer of your choice in scipy.optimize.

multifit()

insert(**kwargs)¶

load_parameters_from_file(filename)¶

Loads the parameters array from a binary file written with the ‘save_parameters2file’ function.

Parameters:	filename (str) –

Notes

In combination with save_parameters2file, this method can be used to recreate a model stored in a file. Actually, before HyperSpy 0.8 this is the only way to do so. However, this is known to be brittle. For example see https://github.com/hyperspy/hyperspy/issues/341.

multifit(mask=None, fetch_only_fixed=False, autosave=False, autosave_every=10, show_progressbar=None, interactive_plot=False, **kwargs)¶

Fit the data to the model at all the positions of the navigation dimensions.

Parameters:

mask ({None, numpy.array}) – To mask (do not fit) at certain position pass a numpy.array of type bool where True indicates that the data will not be fitted at the given position.
fetch_only_fixed (bool) – If True, only the fixed parameters values will be updated when changing the positon.
autosave (bool) – If True, the result of the fit will be saved automatically with a frequency defined by autosave_every.
autosave_every (int) – Save the result of fitting every given number of spectra.
show_progressbar (None or bool) – If True, display a progress bar. If None the default is set in preferences.
interactive_plot (bool) – If True, update the plot for every position as they are processed. Note that this slows down the fitting by a lot, but it allows for interactive monitoring of the fitting (if in interactive mode).
**kwargs (key word arguments) – Any extra key word argument will be passed to the fit method. See the fit method documentation for a list of valid arguments.

fit()

notebook_interaction()¶: Creates interactive notebook widgets for all components and parameters, if available. Requires ipywidgets to be installed.

plot_results(only_free=True, only_active=True)

Plot the value of the parameters of the model

Parameters:	only_free (bool) – If True, only the value of the parameters that are free will be plotted. only_active (bool) – If True, only the value of the active parameters will be plotted.

Notes

The name of the files will be determined by each the Component and each Parameter name attributes. Therefore, it is possible to customise the file names modify the name attributes.

print_current_values(only_free=True)

Print the value of each parameter of the model.

Parameters:	only_free (bool) – If True, only the value of the parameters that are free will be printed.

Remove component from model.

Examples

>>> s = hs.signals.Signal1D(np.empty(1))
>>> m = s.create_model()
>>> g = hs.model.components1D.Gaussian()
>>> m.append(g)

You could remove g like this

>>> m.remove(g)

Like this:

>>> m.remove("Gaussian")

Or like this:

>>> m.remove(0)

save(file_name, name=None, **kwargs)¶

Saves signal and its model to a file

Parameters:	file_name (str) – Name of the file name ({None, str}) – Stored model name. Auto-generated if left empty **kwargs – Other keyword arguments are passed onto BaseSignal.save()

save_parameters2file(filename)¶

Save the parameters array in binary format.

Parameters:	filename (str) –

Notes

This method can be used to save the current state of the model in a way that can be loaded back to recreate the it using load_parameters_from file. Actually, as of HyperSpy 0.8 this is the only way to do so. However, this is known to be brittle. For example see https://github.com/hyperspy/hyperspy/issues/341.

class hyperspy.model.DummyComponentsContainer¶: Bases: object

class hyperspy.model.ModelComponents(model)¶

Bases: object

Container for model components.

Useful to provide tab completion when running in IPython.

class hyperspy.model.ModelSpecialSlicers(model, isNavigation)¶: Bases: object

hyperspy.roi module¶

Region of interests (ROIs).

ROIs operate on BaseSignal instances and include widgets for interactive operation.

The following 1D ROIs are available:

Point1DROI

Single element ROI of a 1D signal.

SpanROI

Interval ROI of a 1D signal.

The following 2D ROIs are available:

Point2DROI

Single element ROI of a 2D signal.

RectangularROI

Rectagular ROI of a 2D signal.

CircleROI

(Hollow) circular ROI of a 2D signal

Line2DROI

Line profile of a 2D signal with customisable width.

class hyperspy.roi.BaseInteractiveROI¶

Bases: hyperspy.roi.BaseROI

Base class for interactive ROIs, i.e. ROIs with widget interaction. The base class defines a lot of the common code for interacting with widgets, but inhertors need to implement the following functions:

_get_widget_type() _apply_roi2widget(widget) _set_from_widget(widget)

add_widget(signal, axes=None, widget=None, color='green')¶

Add a widget to visually represent the ROI, and connect it so any changes in either are reflected in the other. Note that only one widget can be added per signal/axes combination.

signal : Signal

The signal to witch the widget is added. This is used to determine with plot to add the widget to, and it supplies the axes_manager for the widget.

axes : specification of axes to use, default = None

The axes argument specifies which axes the ROI will be applied on. The DataAxis in the collection can be either of the following:

“navigation” or “signal”, in which the first axes of that space’s axes will be used.

a tuple of:

DataAxis. These will not be checked with signal.axes_manager.

anything that will index signal.axes_manager

For any other value, it will check whether the navigation space can fit the right number of axis, and use that if it fits. If not, it will try the signal space.

widget : Widget or None (default)

If specified, this is the widget that will be added. If None, the default widget will be used, as given by _get_widget_type().

color : Matplotlib color specifier (default: ‘green’)

The color for the widget. Any format that matplotlib uses should be ok. This will not change the color fo any widget passed with the ‘widget’ argument.

interactive(signal, navigation_signal='same', out=None, color='green', **kwargs)¶

Creates an interactively sliced Signal (sliced by this ROI) via hyperspy.interactive.

signal : Signal: The source signal to slice
navigation_signal : Signal, None or “same” (default): If not None, it will automatically create a widget on navigation_signal. Passing “same” is identical to passing the same signal to ‘signal’ and ‘navigation_signal’, but is less ambigous, and allows “same” to be the default value.
out : Signal: If not None, it will use ‘out’ as the output instead of returning a new Signal.
color : Matplotlib color specifier (default: ‘green’): The color for the widget. Any format that matplotlib uses should be ok. This will not change the color fo any widget passed with the ‘widget’ argument.
**kwargs: All kwargs are passed to the roi __call__ method which is called interactivel on any roi attribute change.

remove_widget(signal)¶

update()¶: Function responsible for updating anything that depends on the ROI. It should be called by implementors whenever the ROI changes. This implementation updates the widgets associated with it, and triggers the changed event.

class hyperspy.roi.BasePointROI¶

Bases: hyperspy.roi.BaseInteractiveROI

Base ROI class for point ROIs, i.e. ROIs with a unit size in each of its dimensions.

class hyperspy.roi.BaseROI¶

Bases: traits.has_traits.HasTraits

Base class for all ROIs.

Provides some basic functionality that is likely to be shared between all ROIs, and serve as a common type that can be checked for.

is_valid()¶

Determine if the ROI is in a valid state.

This is typically determined by all the coordinates being defined, and that the values makes sense relative to each other.

ndim¶

update()¶: Function responsible for updating anything that depends on the ROI. It should be called by implementors whenever the ROI changes. The base implementation simply triggers the changed event.

class hyperspy.roi.CircleROI(cx, cy, r, r_inner=None)¶

Bases: hyperspy.roi.BaseInteractiveROI

is_valid()¶

class hyperspy.roi.Line2DROI(x1, y1, x2, y2, linewidth)¶

Bases: hyperspy.roi.BaseInteractiveROI

is_valid()¶

length¶

static profile_line(img, src, dst, axes, linewidth=1, order=1, mode='constant', cval=0.0)¶

Return the intensity profile of an image measured along a scan line. :param img: The image, either grayscale (2D array) or multichannel

(3D array, where the final axis contains the channel information).

Parameters:	src (2-tuple of numeric scalar (float or int)) – The start point of the scan line. dst (2-tuple of numeric scalar (float or int)) – The end point of the scan line. linewidth (int, optional) – Width of the scan, perpendicular to the line order (int in {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, optional) – The order of the spline interpolation to compute image values at non-integer coordinates. 0 means nearest-neighbor interpolation. mode (string, one of {'constant', 'nearest', 'reflect', 'wrap'},) – optional How to compute any values falling outside of the image. cval (float, optional) – If mode is ‘constant’, what constant value to use outside the image.
Returns:	return_value – The intensity profile along the scan line. The length of the profile is the ceil of the computed length of the scan line.
Return type:	array

Examples

>>> x = np.array([[1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2]])
>>> img = np.vstack([np.zeros_like(x), x, x, x, np.zeros_like(x)])
>>> img
array([[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
       [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2],
       [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2],
       [1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2],
       [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]])
>>> profile_line(img, (2, 1), (2, 4))
array([ 1.,  1.,  2.,  2.])

hyperspy.samfire module¶

class hyperspy.samfire.Samfire(model, workers=None, setup=True, **kwargs)¶

Bases: object

Smart Adaptive Multidimensional Fitting (SAMFire) object

SAMFire is a more robust way of fitting multidimensional datasets. By extracting starting values for each pixel from already fitted pixels, SAMFire stops the fitting algorithm from getting lost in the parameter space by always starting close to the optimal solution.

SAMFire only picks starting parameters and the order the pixels (in the navigation space) are fitted, and does not provide any new minimisation algorithms.

model¶: Model instance – The complete model

optional_components¶: list – A list of components that can be switched off at some pixels if it returns a better Akaike’s Information Criterion with correction (AICc)

workers¶: int – A number of processes that will perform the fitting parallely

pool¶: samfire_pool instance – A proxy object that manages either multiprocessing or ipyparallel pool

strategies¶: strategy list – A list of strategies that will be used to select pixel fitting order and calculate required starting parameters. Strategies come in two “flavours” - local and global. Local strategies spread the starting values to the nearest pixels and forces certain pixel fitting order. Global strategies look for clusters in parameter values, and suggests most frequent values. Global strategy do not depend on pixel fitting order, hence it is randomised.

metadata¶: dictionary – A dictionary for important samfire parameters

active_strategy¶: strategy – The currently active strategy from the strategies list

update_every¶: int – If segmenter strategy is running, updates the historams every time update_every good fits are found.

plot_every¶: int – When running, samfire plots results every time plot_every good fits are found.

save_every¶: int – When running, samfire saves results every time save_every good fits are found.

start()¶: start SAMFire

stop()¶: stop SAMFire

plot()¶: force plot of currently selected active strategy

change_dtype(dtype)¶

Change the data type.

Parameters: dtype (str or dtype) – Typecode or data-type to which the array is cast. In addition to all standard numpy dtypes HyperSpy supports four extra dtypes for RGB images: “rgb8”, “rgba8”, “rgb16” and “rgba16”. Changing from and to any rgbx dtype is more constrained than most other dtype conversions. To change to a rgbx dtype the signal dimension must be 1, its size 3(4) for rgb(rgba) dtypes, the dtype uint8(uint16) for rgbx8(rgbx16) and the navigation dimension at least 2. After conversion the signal dimension becomes 2. The dtype of images of dtype rgbx8(rgbx16) can only be changed to uint8(uint16) and the signal dimension becomes 1.

Examples

>>> s = hs.signals.Signal1D([1,2,3,4,5])
>>> s.data
array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])
>>> s.change_dtype('float')
>>> s.data

estimate_poissonian_noise_variance(expected_value=None, gain_factor=None, gain_offset=None, correlation_factor=None)¶

Estimate the poissonian noise variance of the signal.

The variance is stored in the metadata.Signal.Noise_properties.variance attribute.

A poissonian noise variance is equal to the expected value. With the default arguments, this method simply sets the variance attribute to the given expected_value. However, more generally (although then noise is not strictly poissonian), the variance may be proportional to the expected value. Moreover, when the noise is a mixture of white (gaussian) and poissonian noise, the variance is described by the following linear model:

$\mathrm{Var}[X] = (a * \mathrm{E}[X] + b) * c$

Where a is the gain_factor, b is the gain_offset (the gaussian noise variance) and c the correlation_factor. The correlation factor accounts for correlation of adjacent signal elements that can be modeled as a convolution with a gaussian point spread function.

Parameters:

expected_value (None or Signal instance.) – If None, the signal data is taken as the expected value. Note that this may be inaccurate where data is small.
gain_offset, correlation_factor (gain_factor,) – All three must be positive. If None, take the values from metadata.Signal.Noise_properties.Variance_linear_model if defined. Otherwise suppose poissonian noise i.e. gain_factor=1, gain_offset=0, correlation_factor=1. If not None, the values are stored in metadata.Signal.Noise_properties.Variance_linear_model.

fold()¶: If the signal was previously unfolded, folds it back

get_current_signal(auto_title=True, auto_filename=True)¶

Returns the data at the current coordinates as a Signal subclass.

The signal subclass is the same as that of the current object. All the axes navigation attribute are set to False.

Parameters:	auto_title (bool) – If True an space followed by the current indices in parenthesis are appended to the title. auto_filename (bool) – If True and tmp_parameters.filename is defined (what is always the case when the Signal has been read from a file), the filename is modified by appending an underscore and a parenthesis containing the current indices.
Returns:	cs
Return type:	Signal subclass instance.

Examples

>>> im = hs.signals.Signal2D(np.zeros((2,3, 32,32)))
>>> im
<Signal2D, title: , dimensions: (3, 2, 32, 32)>
>>> im.axes_manager.indices = 2,1

get_histogram(bins='freedman', range_bins=None, out=None, **kwargs)¶

Return a histogram of the signal data.

More sophisticated algorithms for determining bins can be used. Aside from the bins argument allowing a string specified how bins are computed, the parameters are the same as numpy.histogram().

Parameters:	bins (int or list or str, optional) – If bins is a string, then it must be one of: ‘knuth’ : use Knuth’s rule to determine bins ‘scotts’ : use Scott’s rule to determine bins ‘freedman’ : use the Freedman-diaconis rule to determine bins ‘blocks’ : use bayesian blocks for dynamic bin widths range_bins (tuple or None, optional) – the minimum and maximum range for the histogram. If not specified, it will be (x.min(), x.max()) out ({Signal, None}) – If None, a new Signal is created with the result of the operation and returned (default). If a Signal is passed, it is used to receive the output of the operation, and nothing is returned. **kwargs – other keyword arguments (weight and density) are described in np.histogram().
Returns:	hist_spec
Return type:	An 1D spectrum instance containing the histogram.

map(function, show_progressbar=None, **kwargs)¶

Apply a function to the signal data at all the coordinates.

The function must operate on numpy arrays and the output must have the same dimensions as the input. The function is applied to the data at each coordinate and the result is stored in the current signal i.e. this method operates in-place. Any extra keyword argument is passed to the function. The keywords can take different values at different coordinates. If the function takes an axis or axes argument, the function is assumed to be vectorial and the signal axes are assigned to axis or axes. Otherwise, the signal is iterated over the navigation axes and a progress bar is displayed to monitor the progress.

Parameters:	function (function) – A function that can be applied to the signal. show_progressbar (None or bool) – If True, display a progress bar. If None the default is set in preferences. arguments (keyword) – All extra keyword arguments are passed to the

Notes

This method is similar to Python’s map() that can also be utilize with a Signal instance for similar purposes. However, this method has the advantage of being faster because it iterates the numpy array instead of the Signal.

plot(navigator='auto', axes_manager=None, **kwargs)¶

Plot the signal at the current coordinates.

For multidimensional datasets an optional figure, the “navigator”, with a cursor to navigate that data is raised. In any case it is possible to navigate the data using the sliders. Currently only signals with signal_dimension equal to 0, 1 and 2 can be plotted.

Parameters:

navigator ({"auto", None, "slider", "spectrum", Signal}) – If “auto”, if navigation_dimension > 0, a navigator is provided to explore the data. If navigation_dimension is 1 and the signal is an image the navigator is a spectrum obtained by integrating over the signal axes (the image). If navigation_dimension is 1 and the signal is a spectrum the navigator is an image obtained by stacking horizontally all the spectra in the dataset. If navigation_dimension is > 1, the navigator is an image obtained by integrating the data over the signal axes. Additionaly, if navigation_dimension > 2 a window with one slider per axis is raised to navigate the data. For example, if the dataset consists of 3 navigation axes X, Y, Z and one signal axis, E, the default navigator will be an image obtained by integrating the data over E at the current Z index and a window with sliders for the X, Y and Z axes will be raised. Notice that changing the Z-axis index changes the navigator in this case. If “slider” and the navigation dimension > 0 a window with one slider per axis is raised to navigate the data. If “spectrum” and navigation_dimension > 0 the navigator is always a spectrum obtained by integrating the data over all other axes. If None, no navigator will be provided. Alternatively a Signal instance can be provided. The signal dimension must be 1 (for a spectrum navigator) or 2 (for a image navigator) and navigation_shape must be 0 (for a static navigator) or navigation_shape + signal_shape must be equal to the navigator_shape of the current object (for a dynamic navigator). If the signal dtype is RGB or RGBA this parameters has no effect and is always “slider”.
axes_manager ({None, axes_manager}) – If None axes_manager is used.
optional (**kwargs,) – Additional key word arguments passed to matplotlib.imshow()

print_summary_statistics(formatter='%.3f')¶

Set the signal type and change the current class accordingly if pertinent.

The signal_type attribute specifies the kind of data that the signal containts e.g. “EELS” for electron energy-loss spectroscopy, “PES” for photoemission spectroscopy. There are some methods that are only available for certain kind of signals, so setting this parameter can enable/disable features.

Parameters: signal_type ({"EELS", "EDS_TEM", "EDS_SEM", "DielectricFunction"}) – Currently there are special features for “EELS” (electron energy-loss spectroscopy), “EDS_TEM” (energy dispersive X-rays of thin samples, normally obtained in a transmission electron microscope), “EDS_SEM” (energy dispersive X-rays of thick samples, normally obtained in a scanning electron microscope) and “DielectricFuction”. Setting the signal_type to the correct acronym is highly advisable when analyzing any signal for which HyperSpy provides extra features. Even if HyperSpy does not provide extra features for the signal that you are analyzing, it is good practice to set signal_type to a value that best describes the data signal type.

split(axis='auto', number_of_parts='auto', step_sizes='auto')¶

Splits the data into several signals.

The split can be defined by giving the number_of_parts, a homogeneous step size or a list of customized step sizes. By default (‘auto’), the function is the reverse of utils.stack().

Parameters:

axis ({'auto' | int | string}) –
Specify the data axis in which to perform the splitting operation. The axis can be specified using the index of the axis in axes_manager or the axis name. - If ‘auto’ and if the object has been created with utils.stack, split will return the former list of signals (options stored in ‘metadata._HyperSpy.Stacking_history’

else the last navigation axis will be used.
number_of_parts ({'auto' | int}) – Number of parts in which the SI will be splitted. The splitting is homegenous. When the axis size is not divisible by the number_of_parts the reminder data is lost without warning. If number_of_parts and step_sizes is ‘auto’, number_of_parts equals the length of the axis, step_sizes equals one and the axis is suppressed from each sub_spectra.
step_sizes ({'auto' | list of ints | int}) – Size of the splitted parts. If ‘auto’, the step_sizes equals one. If int, the splitting is homogenous.

Examples

>>> s = hs.signals.Signal1D(random.random([4,3,2]))
>>> s
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3, 4|2)>
>>> s.split()
    [<Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3 |2)>,
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3 |2)>,
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3 |2)>,
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3 |2)>]
>>> s.split(step_sizes=2)
    [<Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3, 2|2)>,
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3, 2|2)>]
>>> s.split(step_sizes=[1,2])
    [<Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3, 1|2)>,
    <Signal1D, title: , dimensions: (3, 2|2)>]

Returns:
Return type:	list of the splitted signals

squeeze()¶: Remove single-dimensional entries from the shape of an array and the axes.

std(axis=None, out=None)¶

Returns a signal with the standard deviation of the signal along at least one axis.

Parameters:	axis ({int \| string \| axis \| tuple \| None}) – Either one on its own, or many axes in a tuple can be passed. In both cases the axes can be passed directly, or specified using the index in axes_manager or the name of the axis. Any duplicates are removed. If None, the operation is performed over all navigation axes (default). out ({Signal, None}) – If None, a new Signal is created with the result of the operation and returned (default). If a Signal is passed, it is used to receive the output of the operation, and nothing is returned.
Returns:	s
Return type:	Signal

Examples

>>> import numpy as np
>>> s = BaseSignal(np.random.random((64,64,1024)))
>>> s.data.shape
(64,64,1024)
>>> s.std(-1).data.shape
(64,64)

sum(axis=None, out=None)¶

Sum the data over the given axes.

Parameters:	axis ({int \| string \| axis \| tuple \| None}) – Either one on its own, or many axes in a tuple can be passed. In both cases the axes can be passed directly, or specified using the index in axes_manager or the name of the axis. Any duplicates are removed. If None, the operation is performed over all navigation axes (default). out ({Signal, None}) – If None, a new Signal is created with the result of the operation and returned (default).

swap_axes(axis1, axis2)¶

Swaps the axes.

Parameters:	axis2 (axis1,) – The axis can be passed directly, or specified using the index of the axis in axes_manager or the axis name.
Returns:	s
Return type:	a copy of the object with the axes swapped.

transpose(signal_axes=None, navigation_axes=None, optimize=False)¶

Transposes the signal to have the required signal and navigation axes.

Parameters:

navigation_axes (signal_axes,) – With the exception of both parameters getting iterables, generally one has to be None (i.e. “floating”). The other one specifies either the required number or explicitly the axes to move to the corresponding space. If both are iterables, full control is given as long as all axes are assigned to one space only.
optimize (bool [False]) – If the data should be re-ordered in memory, most likely making a copy. Ensures the fastest available iteration at the expense of memory.

plot_bss_results(factors_navigator='auto', loadings_navigator='auto', factors_dim=2, loadings_dim=2)¶

Plot the blind source separation factors and loadings.

Unlike plot_bss_factors and plot_bss_loadings, this method displays one component at a time. Therefore it provides a more compact visualization than then other two methods. The loadings and factors are displayed in different windows and each has its own navigator/sliders to navigate them if they are multidimensional. The component index axis is syncronize between the two.

Parameters:

loadings_navigator (factor_navigator,) –
Signal} – See plot documentation for details.
loadings_dim (factors_dim,) – Currently HyperSpy cannot plot signals of dimension higher than two. Therefore, to visualize the BSS results when the factors or the loadings have signal dimension greater than 2 we can view the data as spectra(images) by setting this parameter to 1(2). (Default 2)

Module contents¶

HyperSpy: a multi-dimensional data analysis package for Python¶

Documentation is available in the docstrings and online at http://hyperspy.org/hyperspy-doc/current/index.html.

All public packages, functions and classes are in api. All other packages and modules are for internal consumption and should not be needed for data analysis.

When starting HyperSpy using the hyperspy script (e.g. by executing hyperspy in a console, using the context menu entries or using the links in the Start Menu, the api package is imported in the user namespace as hs, i.e. by executing the following:

>>> import hyperspy.api as hs

(Note that code snippets are indicated by three greater-than signs)

We recommend to import the HyperSpy API as above also when doing it manually. The docstring examples assume that hyperspy has been imported as hs, numpy as np and matplotlib.pyplot as plt.

More details in the api docstring.
