	Constructs a model_image_splined_raster object. Takes the extents and number of pixels in each directions (xmin and xmax are the locations of the minimum and maximum pixel centers, etc.).

void	use_numerical_visibilities ()
	State switch to select numerically computed visibilities using the machinery in model_image. Once called, all future visibilities will be computed numerically until use_analytical_visibilities() is called.

void	use_analytical_visibilities ()
	State switch to select analytically computed visibilities using the the analytical Fourier transform of the Gaussian. Once called, all future visibilities will be computed analytically until use_numerical_visibilities() is called.

virtual size_t	size () const
	A user-supplied function that returns the number of the parameters the model expects.

virtual std::string	model_tag () const
	Return a string that contains a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features.

virtual void	generate_model (std::vector< double > parameters)
	A one-time generate function that permits model construction prior to calling the visibility_amplitude, closure_phase, etc. for each datum. Takes a vector of parameters.

virtual std::complex< double >	visibility (datum_visibility &d, double accuracy)
	Returns complex visibility in Jy computed from the image given a datum_visibility_amplitude object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.

virtual double	visibility_amplitude (datum_visibility_amplitude &d, double accuracy)
	Returns visibility ampitudes in Jy computed from the image given a datum_visibility_amplitude object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.

virtual double	closure_phase (datum_closure_phase &d, double accuracy)
	Returns closure phase in degrees computed from the image given a datum_closure_phase object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.

virtual double	closure_amplitude (datum_closure_amplitude &d, double accuracy)
	Returns closure amplitude computed from the image given a datum_closure_phase object, containing all of the accoutrements. While this provides access to the actual data value, the two could be separated if necessary. Also takes an accuracy parameter with the same units as the data, indicating the accuracy with which the model must generate a comparison value. Note that this can be redefined in child classes.

	Provides ability to use bicubic spline interpolator (true) instead of regular bicubic. Code defaults to false.

virtual void	set_mpi_communicator (MPI_Comm comm)
	Defines a set of processors provided to the model for parallel computation via an MPI communicator. Only facilates code parallelization if the model computation is parallelized via MPI.

void	write_model_tag_file (std::string tagfilename="model_image.tag") const
	Write a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features. This calls the overloaded version with the outstream, which is the only function that need be rewritten in child classes.

virtual void	write_model_tag_file (std::ofstream &tagout) const
	Write a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features. For most child classes, the default implementation is suffcient. However, should that not be the case, this is the only function that need be rewritten in child classes.

Detailed Description

Generates a rastered pixel array, for which the parameters are the intensities at each pixel. On construction the number of pixels in the two directions are set, setting the resulting number of parameters. An approximate cubic spline is imposed with a control parameter \(a\) that should usually be set to -0.5 (default) to -0.75 to prevent excessive ringing.

Parameter list:

parameters[0] ........ pixel 0,0
parameters[1] ........ pixel 1,0 ...
parameters[Nx-1] ..... pixel Nx-1,0
parameters[Nx] ....... pixel 0,1
parameters[Nx+1] ..... pixel 1,1 ...
parameters[Nx*Ny-1] .. pixel Nx-1,Ny-1
