 model_image_sum (std::vector< model_image * > images, std::string offset_coordinates="Cartesian")
 Constructor. Takes a vector of pointers to model_image objects.
 
 model_image_sum (std::string offset_coordinates="Cartesian")
 Constructor. Makes empty sum object, models can be added with add_model_image.
 
virtual ~model_image_sum ()
 Constructor. Takes a pair of model_image objects.
 
void add_model_image (model_image &image)
 Add an image.
 
virtual size_t size () const
 A user-supplied function that returns the number of the parameters the model expects.
 
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 acc)
 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 is redefined to accomodate the possibility of using the analytical computation.
 
virtual double visibility_amplitude (datum_visibility_amplitude &d, double acc)
 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 is redefined to accomodate the possibility of using the analytical computation.
 
virtual double closure_phase (datum_closure_phase &d, double acc)
 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 is redefined since the closure phase of Gaussian images is identically zero.
 
virtual double closure_amplitude (datum_closure_amplitude &d, double acc)
 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.
 
virtual void set_mpi_communicator (MPI_Comm comm)
 Sets the MPI communicator if the underlying images are parallelized.
 
virtual std::string model_tag () const
 Return a string that contains a unique identifying tag for use with the ThemisPy plotting features. This function SHOULD be defined in subsequent model_image classes with a unique identifier that contains sufficient information about the hyperparameters to uniquely determine the image. By default it writes "UNDEFINED".

virtual void generate_complex_visibilities ()
 A one-time generate function that will generate the complex visibilities and store them. This must be called after generate_model has been called.
 
void output_image (std::string fname, bool rotate=false)
 
void get_image (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &alpha, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &beta, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &I) const
 Provides direct access to the constructed image. Sets a 2D grid of angles (alpha, beta) in radians and intensities in Jy per steradian.
 
void get_visibilities (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &u, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &v, std::vector< std::vector< std::complex< double > > > &V) const
 Provides direct access to the complex visibilities. Sets a 2D grid of baselines (u,v) in lambda, and visibilites in Jy.
 
void get_visibility_amplitudes (std::vector< std::vector< double > > &u, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &v, std::vector< std::vector< double > > &V) const
 Provides direct access to the visibility amplitudes. Sets a 2D grid of baselines (u,v) in lambda, and visibilites in Jy.
 
void use_spline_interp (bool use_spline)
 Provides ability to use bicubic spline interpolator (true) instead of regular bicubic. Code defaults to false.
 
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

Each image component has its full complement of parameters, appended in order of the summation. The resulting image is simply the sum of the intensity map from the each underlying object. This sum is performed in the visibilty plane.

Parameter list:

  • parameters[0] ... Model 1 parameters[0].
    ...
  • parameters[N1-1] ... Model 1 last parameter.
  • parameters[N1] ... Model 1 offset in x.
  • parameters[N1+1] ... Model 1 offset in y.
  • parameters[N1+2] ... Model 2 parameters[0].
    ...
  • parameters[N1+N2+1] ... Model 2 last parameter.
  • parameters[N1+N2+2] ... Model 2 offset in x.
  • parameters[N1+N2+3] ... Model 2 offset in y.
    ...
  • parameters[-1] ... Position angle (in model_image) in radians
    Note that offsets for all components are included. These are often not necessary, and can be set to fixed values via priors if needed.
