Cata2Data

Use FITS catalogues, FITS image data and astropy to manipulate your data into a dynamically read data set!

See the example.ipynb notebook to see how you can easily load in a number of data sets into a dynamically memory loaded iterable data set.

Installation

With this package at ROOT_PATH/Cata2Data on your deveice, install using pip:

pip install -e ROOT_PATH/Cata2Data

Quick Introduction

The quickest introcution:

from cata2data import CataData
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader

field_names = ["A", "B"]
catalogue_paths = ["CAT_A.fits", "CAT_A.fits"]
image_paths     = ["IMG_A.fits", "IMG_B.fits"]

data = CataData(
    catalogue_paths=catalogue_paths,
    image_paths=image_paths,
    field_names=field_names
)

dataloader = DataLoader(data, batch_size=64, shuffle=True)

Features

See the doc strings for detailed notes on all of the parameters which CataData accepts. Specifically, consider the cutout size, memmory mapping (mmap) and the various pre-processing options to match your needs.

⚠️ Note that currently catalogues are indexed through their "RA"" and "DEC" columns. Use the catalogue_preprocessing parameter to correctly name the columns until this has a better fix.

Conceptual Workflow

CataData takes in fields of images and catalogues. Catalogues are merged into one dataframe and labelled with their respective field names. The length of CataData objects is the length of that dataframe. Entries are indexed through the dataframe and samples are cutout from the respective image using the units provided in the "RA" and "DEC" columns of the catalogue.

If catalogued features are needed to manipulate the iamges, we recommend using an image processing wrapper around CataData objects. I.e. a function like: image_postprocessing(catadata_instance, index) -> np.ndarray which calls the catadata_object[index] and manipulates the resulting image as required before returning it.
