Methods Documentation

adaptArgsAndRun(inputData, inputDataIds, outputDataId)

Compute a metric from in-memory data.

Parameters:
inputData : dict from str to any

Dictionary whose keys are the names of input parameters and values are Python-domain data objects (or lists of objects) retrieved from data butler. Accepting lists of objects is strongly recommended; this allows metrics to vary their granularity up to the granularity of the input data without the need for extensive code changes. Input objects may be None to represent missing data.

inputDataIds : dict from str to list of dataId

Dictionary whose keys are the names of input parameters and values are data IDs (or lists of data IDs) that the task consumes for corresponding dataset type. Data IDs are guaranteed to match data objects in inputData.

outputDataId : dict from str to dataId

Dictionary containing a single key, "measurement", which maps to a single data ID for the measurement. The data ID must have the same granularity as the metric.

Returns:
struct : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

A Struct containing at least the following component:

  • measurement: the value of the metric identified by getOutputMetricName, computed from inputData (lsst.verify.Measurement or None). The measurement is guaranteed to contain not only the value of the metric, but also any mandatory supplementary information.
Raises:
lsst.verify.tasks.MetricComputationError

Raised if an algorithmic or system error prevents calculation of the metric. Examples include corrupted input data or unavoidable exceptions raised by analysis code. The MetricComputationError should be chained to a more specific exception describing the root cause.

Not having enough data for a metric to be applicable is not an error, and should not trigger this exception.

Notes

This implementation calls run on the contents of inputData, followed by calling addStandardMetadata on the result before returning it. Any subclass that overrides this method must also call addStandardMetadata on its measurement before returning it.

adaptArgsAndRun and run should assume they take multiple input datasets, regardless of the expected metric granularity. Doing so lets metrics be defined with a different granularity from the Science Pipelines processing, and allows for the aggregation (or lack thereof) of the metric to be controlled by the task configuration with no code changes. This rule may be broken if it is impossible for more than one copy of a dataset to exist.

All input data must be treated as optional. This maximizes the MetricTask’s usefulness for incomplete pipeline runs or runs with optional processing steps. If a metric cannot be calculated because the necessary inputs are missing, the MetricTask must return None in place of the measurement.

Examples

Consider a metric that characterizes PSF variations across the entire field of view, given processed images. Then, if run has the signature run(images):

inputData = {'images': [image1, image2, ...]}
inputDataIds = {'images': [{'visit': 42, 'ccd': 1},
                           {'visit': 42, 'ccd': 2},
                           ...]}
outputDataId = {'measurement': {'visit': 42}}
result = task.adaptArgsAndRun(
    inputData, inputDataIds, outputDataId)
addStandardMetadata(measurement, outputDataId)

Add data ID-specific metadata required for all metrics.

This method currently does not add any metadata, but may do so in the future.

Parameters:
measurement : lsst.verify.Measurement

The Measurement that the metadata are added to.

outputDataId : dataId

The data ID to which the measurement applies, at the appropriate level of granularity.

Notes

This method must be called by any subclass that overrides adaptArgsAndRun, but should be ignored otherwise. It should not be overridden by subclasses.

This method is not responsible for shared metadata like the execution environment (which should be added by this MetricTask’s caller), nor for metadata specific to a particular metric (which should be added when the metric is calculated).

Warning

This method’s signature will change whenever additional data needs to be provided. This is a deliberate restriction to ensure that all subclasses pass in the new data as well.

emptyMetadata()

Empty (clear) the metadata for this Task and all sub-Tasks.

getAllSchemaCatalogs()

Get schema catalogs for all tasks in the hierarchy, combining the results into a single dict.

Returns:
schemacatalogs : dict

Keys are butler dataset type, values are a empty catalog (an instance of the appropriate lsst.afw.table Catalog type) for all tasks in the hierarchy, from the top-level task down through all subtasks.

Notes

This method may be called on any task in the hierarchy; it will return the same answer, regardless.

The default implementation should always suffice. If your subtask uses schemas the override Task.getSchemaCatalogs, not this method.

getFullMetadata()

Get metadata for all tasks.

Returns:
metadata : lsst.daf.base.PropertySet

The PropertySet keys are the full task name. Values are metadata for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc..

Notes

The returned metadata includes timing information (if @timer.timeMethod is used) and any metadata set by the task. The name of each item consists of the full task name with . replaced by :, followed by . and the name of the item, e.g.:

topLevelTaskName:subtaskName:subsubtaskName.itemName

using : in the full task name disambiguates the rare situation that a task has a subtask and a metadata item with the same name.

getFullName()

Get the task name as a hierarchical name including parent task names.

Returns:
fullName : str

The full name consists of the name of the parent task and each subtask separated by periods. For example:

  • The full name of top-level task “top” is simply “top”.
  • The full name of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub”.
  • The full name of subtask “sub2” of subtask “sub” of top-level task “top” is “top.sub.sub2”.
classmethod getInputDatasetTypes(config)

Return input dataset types for this task.

Parameters:
config : cls.ConfigClass

Configuration for this task.

Returns:
datasets : dict from str to str

Dictionary where the key is the name of the input dataset (must match a parameter to run) and the value is the name of its Butler dataset type.

Notes

The default implementation searches config for InputDatasetConfig fields, much like lsst.pipe.base.PipelineTask.getInputDatasetTypes does.

classmethod getInputMetadataKeys(config)

Return the metadata keys read by this task.

Parameters:
config : cls.ConfigClass

Configuration for this task.

Returns:
keys : dict [str, str]

The keys are the (arbitrary) names of values needed by makeMeasurement, the values are the metadata keys to be looked up. Metadata keys are assumed to include task prefixes in the format of lsst.pipe.base.Task.getFullMetadata(). This method may return a substring of the desired (full) key, but multiple matches for any key will cause an error.

getName()

Get the name of the task.

Returns:
taskName : str

Name of the task.

getFullName

classmethod getOutputMetricName(config)

Identify the metric calculated by this MetricTask.

Parameters:
config : cls.ConfigClass

Configuration for this MetricTask.

Returns:
metric : lsst.verify.Name

The name of the metric computed by objects of this class when configured with config.

getSchemaCatalogs()

Get the schemas generated by this task.

Returns:
schemaCatalogs : dict

Keys are butler dataset type, values are an empty catalog (an instance of the appropriate lsst.afw.table Catalog type) for this task.

See also

Task.getAllSchemaCatalogs

Notes

Warning

Subclasses that use schemas must override this method. The default implemenation returns an empty dict.

This method may be called at any time after the Task is constructed, which means that all task schemas should be computed at construction time, not when data is actually processed. This reflects the philosophy that the schema should not depend on the data.

Returning catalogs rather than just schemas allows us to save e.g. slots for SourceCatalog as well.

getTaskDict()

Get a dictionary of all tasks as a shallow copy.

Returns:
taskDict : dict

Dictionary containing full task name: task object for the top-level task and all subtasks, sub-subtasks, etc..

classmethod makeField(doc)

Make a lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField for this task.

Parameters:
doc : str

Help text for the field.

Returns:
configurableField : lsst.pex.config.ConfigurableField

A ConfigurableField for this task.

Examples

Provides a convenient way to specify this task is a subtask of another task.

Here is an example of use:

class OtherTaskConfig(lsst.pex.config.Config)
    aSubtask = ATaskClass.makeField("a brief description of what this task does")
makeMeasurement(values)

Compute the number of non-updated DIAObjects.

Parameters:
values : sequence [dict [str, int or None]]

A list where each element corresponds to a metadata object passed to run. Each dict has the following keys:

"updatedObjects"

The number of DIAObjects updated for this image (int or None). May be None if the image was not successfully associated.

"unassociatedObjects"

The number of DIAObjects not associated with a DiaSource in this image (int or None). May be None if the image was not successfully associated.

Returns:
measurement : lsst.verify.Measurement or None

The total number of unassociated objects.

makeSubtask(name, **keyArgs)

Create a subtask as a new instance as the name attribute of this task.

Parameters:
name : str

Brief name of the subtask.

keyArgs

Extra keyword arguments used to construct the task. The following arguments are automatically provided and cannot be overridden:

  • “config”.
  • “parentTask”.

Notes

The subtask must be defined by Task.config.name, an instance of pex_config ConfigurableField or RegistryField.

run(metadata)

Compute a measurement from science task metadata.

Parameters:
metadata : iterable of lsst.daf.base.PropertySet

A collection of metadata objects, one for each unit of science processing to be incorporated into this metric. Its elements may be None to represent missing data.

Returns:
result : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

A Struct containing the following component:

Raises:
lsst.verify.tasks.MetricComputationError

Raised if the strings returned by getInputMetadataKeys match more than one key in any metadata object.

Notes

This implementation calls getInputMetadataKeys, then searches for matching keys in each element of metadata. It then passes the values of these keys (or None if no match) to makeMeasurement, and returns its result to the caller.

timer(name, logLevel=10000)

Context manager to log performance data for an arbitrary block of code.

Parameters:
name : str

Name of code being timed; data will be logged using item name: Start and End.

logLevel

A lsst.log level constant.
