The fast azimuthal integration Python library: pyFAI
نویسندگان
چکیده
pyFAI is an open-source software package designed to perform azimuthal integration and, correspondingly, two-dimensional regrouping on area-detector frames for small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering experiments. It is written in Python (with binary submodules for improved performance), a language widely accepted and used by the scientific community today, which enables users to easily incorporate the pyFAI library into their processing pipeline. This article focuses on recent work, especially the ease of calibration, its accuracy and the execution speed for integration.

PyFAI: a Python library for high performance azimuthal integration on GPU
The pyFAI package has been designed to reduce X-ray diffraction images into powder diffraction curves to be further processed by scientists. This contribution describes how to convert an image into a radial profile using the Numpy package, how the process was accelerated using Cython. The algorithm was parallelised, needing a complete re-design to benefit from massively parallel devices like gr...
متن کاملFast Linear Transformations in Python
This paper introduces a new free library for the Python programming language, which provides a collection of structured linear transforms, that are not represented as explicit two dimensional arrays but in a more efficient way by exploiting the structural knowledge. This allows fast and memory savy forward and backward transformations while also provding a clean but still flexible interface to ...

متن کاملModFossa: A library for modeling ion channels using Python
The creation and simulation of ion channel models using continuous-time Markov processes is a powerful and well-used tool in the field of electrophysiology and ion channel research. While several software packages exist for the purpose of ion channel modeling, most are GUI based, and none are available as a Python library. In an attempt to provide an easy-to-use, yet powerful Markov model-based...
