DcrAssembleCoaddTask¶

class lsst.pipe.tasks.dcrAssembleCoadd.DcrAssembleCoaddTask(*args, **kwargs)¶

Bases: lsst.pipe.tasks.assembleCoadd.CompareWarpAssembleCoaddTask

Assemble DCR coadded images from a set of warps.

Notes

As with AssembleCoaddTask, we want to assemble a coadded image from a set of Warps (also called coadded temporary exposures), including the effects of Differential Chromatic Refraction (DCR). For full details of the mathematics and algorithm, please see DMTN-037: DCR-matched template generation (https://dmtn-037.lsst.io).

This Task produces a DCR-corrected deepCoadd, as well as a dcrCoadd for each subfilter used in the iterative calculation. It begins by dividing the bandpass-defining filter into N equal bandwidth “subfilters”, and divides the flux in each pixel from an initial coadd equally into each as a “dcrModel”. Because the airmass and parallactic angle of each individual exposure is known, we can calculate the shift relative to the center of the band in each subfilter due to DCR. For each exposure we apply this shift as a linear transformation to the dcrModels and stack the results to produce a DCR-matched exposure. The matched exposures are subtracted from the input exposures to produce a set of residual images, and these residuals are reverse shifted for each exposures’ subfilters and stacked. The shifted and stacked residuals are added to the dcrModels to produce a new estimate of the flux in each pixel within each subfilter. The dcrModels are solved for iteratively, which continues until the solution from a new iteration improves by less than a set percentage, or a maximum number of iterations is reached. Two forms of regularization are employed to reduce unphysical results. First, the new solution is averaged with the solution from the previous iteration, which mitigates oscillating solutions where the model overshoots with alternating very high and low values. Second, a common degeneracy when the data have a limited range of airmass or parallactic angle values is for one subfilter to be fit with very low or negative values, while another subfilter is fit with very high values. This typically appears in the form of holes next to sources in one subfilter, and corresponding extended wings in another. Because each subfilter has a narrow bandwidth we assume that physical sources that are above the noise level will not vary in flux by more than a factor of frequencyClampFactor between subfilters, and pixels that have flux deviations larger than that factor will have the excess flux distributed evenly among all subfilters. If splitSubfilters is set, then each subfilter will be further sub- divided during the forward modeling step (only). This approximates using a higher number of subfilters that may be necessary for high airmass observations, but does not increase the number of free parameters in the fit. This is needed when there are high airmass observations which would otherwise have significant DCR even within a subfilter. Because calculating the shifted images takes most of the time, splitting the subfilters is turned off by way of the splitThreshold option for low-airmass observations that do not suffer from DCR within a subfilter.

Attributes:	bufferSize : `int` The number of pixels to grow each subregion by to allow for DCR.

refImage : lsst.afw.image.MaskedImage: A reference image used to supply the default pixel values.
modelWeights : numpy.ndarray or float: A 2D array of weight values that tapers smoothly to zero away from detected sources. Set to a placeholder value of 1.0 if self.config.useModelWeights is False.

classmethod applyOverrides(config)¶

A hook to allow a task to change the values of its config after the camera-specific overrides are loaded but before any command-line overrides are applied.

Parameters:	config : instance of task’s `ConfigClass` Task configuration.

Notes

This is necessary in some cases because the camera-specific overrides may retarget subtasks, wiping out changes made in ConfigClass.setDefaults. See LSST Trac ticket #2282 for more discussion.

Warning

This is called by CmdLineTask.parseAndRun; other ways of constructing a config will not apply these overrides.

assembleMetadata(coaddExposure, tempExpRefList, weightList)¶

Set the metadata for the coadd.

This basic implementation sets the filter from the first input.

Parameters:	coaddExposure : `lsst.afw.image.Exposure` The target exposure for the coadd. tempExpRefList : `list` List of data references to tempExp. weightList : `list` List of weights.

assembleSubregion(coaddExposure, bbox, tempExpRefList, imageScalerList, weightList, altMaskList, statsFlags, statsCtrl, nImage=None)¶

Assemble the coadd for a sub-region.

For each coaddTempExp, check for (and swap in) an alternative mask if one is passed. Remove mask planes listed in config.removeMaskPlanes. Finally, stack the actual exposures using lsst.afw.math.statisticsStack with the statistic specified by statsFlags. Typically, the statsFlag will be one of lsst.afw.math.MEAN for a mean-stack or lsst.afw.math.MEANCLIP for outlier rejection using an N-sigma clipped mean where N and iterations are specified by statsCtrl. Assign the stacked subregion back to the coadd.

Parameters:

Calculate a quality of fit metric for the matched templates.

Parameters:

Returns:

convergenceMetric : float: Quality of fit metric for all input exposures, within the sub-region

calculateGain(convergenceList, gainList)¶

Calculate the gain to use for the current iteration.

After calculating a new DcrModel, each value is averaged with the value in the corresponding pixel from the previous iteration. This reduces oscillating solutions that iterative techniques are plagued by, and speeds convergence. By far the biggest changes to the model happen in the first couple iterations, so we can also use a more aggressive gain later when the model is changing slowly.

Parameters:	convergenceList : `list` of `float` The quality of fit metric from each previous iteration. gainList : `list` of `float` The gains used in each previous iteration: appended with the new gain value. Gains are numbers between `self.config.baseGain` and 1.
Returns:	gain : `float` Relative weight to give the new solution when updating the model. A value of 1.0 gives equal weight to both solutions.
Raises:	ValueError If `len(convergenceList) != len(gainList)+1`.

calculateModelWeights(dcrModels, dcrBBox)¶

Build an array that smoothly tapers to 0 away from detected sources.

Parameters:	dcrModels : `lsst.pipe.tasks.DcrModel` Best fit model of the true sky after correcting chromatic effects. dcrBBox : `lsst.geom.box.Box2I` Sub-region of the coadd which includes a buffer to allow for DCR.
Returns:	weights : `numpy.ndarray` or `float` A 2D array of weight values that tapers smoothly to zero away from detected sources. Set to a placeholder value of 1.0 if `self.config.useModelWeights` is False.
Raises:	ValueError If `useModelWeights` is set and `modelWeightsWidth` is negative.

calculateNImage(dcrModels, bbox, warpRefList, spanSetMaskList, statsCtrl)¶

Calculate the number of exposures contributing to each subfilter.

Parameters:

dcrModels : lsst.pipe.tasks.DcrModel: Best fit model of the true sky after correcting chromatic effects.

Returns:

dcrNImages : list of lsst.afw.image.ImageU: List of exposure count images for each subfilter
dcrWeights : list of lsst.afw.image.ImageF: Per-pixel weights for each subfilter. Equal to 1/(number of unmasked images contributing to each pixel).

statsCtrl : lsst.afw.math.StatisticsControl: Statistics control object for coadd

Returns:

convergenceMetric : float: Quality of fit metric for one exposure, within the sub-region.

dcrAssembleSubregion(dcrModels, subExposures, bbox, dcrBBox, warpRefList, statsCtrl, convergenceMetric, gain, modelWeights, refImage, dcrWeights)¶

Assemble the DCR coadd for a sub-region.

Build a DCR-matched template for each input exposure, then shift the residuals according to the DCR in each subfilter. Stack the shifted residuals and apply them as a correction to the solution from the previous iteration. Restrict the new model solutions from varying by more than a factor of modelClampFactor from the last solution, and additionally restrict the individual subfilter models from varying by more than a factor of frequencyClampFactor from their average. Finally, mitigate potentially oscillating solutions by averaging the new solution with the solution from the previous iteration, weighted by their convergence metric.

Parameters:

Returns:	maskSpanSetList : `list` List of SpanSets with artifacts.

findArtifacts(templateCoadd, tempExpRefList, imageScalerList)¶

Find artifacts.

Loop through warps twice. The first loop builds a map with the count of how many epochs each pixel deviates from the templateCoadd by more than config.chiThreshold sigma. The second loop takes each difference image and filters the artifacts detected in each using count map to filter out variable sources and sources that are difficult to subtract cleanly.

Parameters:	templateCoadd : `lsst.afw.image.Exposure` Exposure to serve as model of static sky. tempExpRefList : `list` List of data references to warps. imageScalerList : `list` List of image scalers.

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.

getBadPixelMask()¶: ! @brief Convenience method to provide the bitmask from the mask plane names

getCoaddDatasetName(warpType='direct')¶

Return coadd name for given warpType and task config

Parameters:	warpType : string Either ‘direct’ or ‘psfMatched’
Returns:	CoaddDatasetName : `string`

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”.

getName()¶

Get the name of the task.

Returns:	taskName : `str` Name of the task.

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.

getSkyInfo(patchRef)¶

args : list, optional: List of command-line arguments; if None use sys.argv.
config : lsst.pex.config.Config-type, optional: Config for task. If None use Task.ConfigClass.
log : lsst.log.Log-type, optional: Log. If None use the default log.
doReturnResults : bool, optional: If True, return the results of this task. Default is False. This is only intended for unit tests and similar use. It can easily exhaust memory (if the task returns enough data and you call it enough times) and it will fail when using multiprocessing if the returned data cannot be pickled.

Returns:

struct : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

Fields are:

argumentParser: the argument parser (lsst.pipe.base.ArgumentParser).
parsedCmd: the parsed command returned by the argument parser’s parse_args method (argparse.Namespace).
taskRunner: the task runner used to run the task (an instance of Task.RunnerClass).
resultList: results returned by the task runner’s run method, one entry per invocation (list). This will typically be a list of Struct, each containing at least an exitStatus integer (0 or 1); see Task.RunnerClass (TaskRunner by default) for more details.

Notes

Calling this method with no arguments specified is the standard way to run a command-line task from the command-line. For an example see pipe_tasks bin/makeSkyMap.py or almost any other file in that directory.

If one or more of the dataIds fails then this routine will exit (with a status giving the number of failed dataIds) rather than returning this struct; this behaviour can be overridden by specifying the --noExit command-line option.

prefilterArtifacts(spanSetList, exp)¶

Remove artifact candidates covered by bad mask plane.

Any future editing of the candidate list that does not depend on temporal information should go in this method.

Parameters:	spanSetList : `list` List of SpanSets representing artifact candidates. exp : `lsst.afw.image.Exposure` Exposure containing mask planes used to prefilter.
Returns:	returnSpanSetList : `list` List of SpanSets with artifacts.

Each Warp has its own photometric zeropoint and background variance. Before coadding these Warps together, compute a scale factor to normalize the photometric zeropoint and compute the weight for each Warp.

Parameters:	refList : `list` List of data references to tempExp
Returns:	result : `lsst.pipe.base.Struct` Result struct with components: `tempExprefList`: `list` of data references to tempExp. `weightList`: `list` of weightings. `imageScalerList`: `list` of image scalers.

Parameters:	maskedImage : `lsst.afw.image.MaskedImage` The masked image to be modified.

run(skyInfo, warpRefList, imageScalerList, weightList, supplementaryData=None)¶

Assemble the coadd.

Requires additional inputs Struct supplementaryData to contain a templateCoadd that serves as the model of the static sky.

Find artifacts and apply them to the warps’ masks creating a list of alternative masks with a new “CLIPPED” plane and updated “NO_DATA” plane Then pass these alternative masks to the base class’s assemble method.

Divide the templateCoadd evenly between each subfilter of a DcrModel as the starting best estimate of the true wavelength- dependent sky. Forward model the DcrModel using the known chromatic effects in each subfilter and calculate a convergence metric based on how well the modeled template matches the input warps. If the convergence has not yet reached the desired threshold, then shift and stack the residual images to build a new DcrModel. Apply conditioning to prevent oscillating solutions between iterations or between subfilters.

Once the DcrModel reaches convergence or the maximum number of iterations has been reached, fill the metadata for each subfilter image and make them proper ``coaddExposure``s.

Parameters:

skyInfo : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

Patch geometry information, from getSkyInfo

warpRefList : list of lsst.daf.butler.DeferredDatasetHandle or

lsst.daf.persistence.ButlerDataRef The data references to the input warped exposures.

The weight to give each input exposure in the coadd

supplementaryData : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

templateCoadd: coadded exposure (lsst.afw.image.Exposure)

Returns:

result : lsst.pipe.base.Struct

Result struct with components:

coaddExposure: coadded exposure (lsst.afw.image.Exposure)

nImage: exposure count image (lsst.afw.image.ImageU)

dcrCoadds: list of coadded exposures for each subfilter

dcrNImages: list of exposure count images for each subfilter

runDataRef(dataRef, selectDataList=None, warpRefList=None)¶

Assemble a coadd from a set of warps.

Coadd a set of Warps. Compute weights to be applied to each Warp and find scalings to match the photometric zeropoint to a reference Warp. Assemble the Warps using run method. Forward model chromatic effects across multiple subfilters, and subtract from the input Warps to build sets of residuals. Use the residuals to construct a new DcrModel for each subfilter, and iterate until the model converges. Interpolate over NaNs and optionally write the coadd to disk. Return the coadded exposure.

Parameters:	dataRef : `lsst.daf.persistence.ButlerDataRef` Data reference defining the patch for coaddition and the reference Warp selectDataList : `list` of `lsst.daf.persistence.ButlerDataRef` List of data references to warps. Data to be coadded will be selected from this list based on overlap with the patch defined by the data reference.

Parameters:

butlerQC : ButlerQuantumContext: A butler which is specialized to operate in the context of a lsst.daf.butler.Quantum.
inputRefs : InputQuantizedConnection: Datastructure whose attribute names are the names that identify connections defined in corresponding PipelineTaskConnections class. The values of these attributes are the lsst.daf.butler.DatasetRef objects associated with the defined input/prerequisite connections.

Notes

Assemble a coadd from a set of Warps.

PipelineTask (Gen3) entry point to Coadd a set of Warps. Analogous to runDataRef, it prepares all the data products to be passed to run, and processes the results before returning a struct of results to be written out. AssembleCoadd cannot fit all Warps in memory. Therefore, its inputs are accessed subregion by subregion by the Gen3 DeferredDatasetHandle that is analagous to the Gen2 lsst.daf.persistence.ButlerDataRef. Any updates to this method should correspond to an update in runDataRef while both entry points are used.
