Searching for codes credited to 'Kenyon, Jonathan'

Tip! Refine or expand your search. Authors are sometimes listed as 'Smith, J. K.' instead of 'Smith, John' so it is useful to search for last names only. Note this is currently a simple phrase search.

[ascl:1906.009] PyMORESANE: Python MOdel REconstruction by Synthesis-ANalysis Estimators

PyMORESANE is a Python and pyCUDA-accelerated implementation of the MORESANE deconvolution algorithm, a sparse deconvolution algorithm for radio interferometric imaging. It can restore diffuse astronomical sources which are faint in brightness, complex in morphology and possibly buried in the dirty beam’s side lobes of bright radio sources in the field.

[ascl:2305.006] QuartiCal: Fast radio interferometric calibration

QuartiCal is the successor to CubiCal (ascl:1805.031). It implements a suite of fast radio interferometric calibration routines exploiting complex optimization. Unlike CubiCal, QuartiCal allows for any available Jones terms to be combined. It can also be deployed on a cluster.

[ascl:2412.002] Stimela2: Workflow management framework for data reduction workflows

Stimela2 develops data reduction workflows and is a significant update of Stimela (ascl:2305.007). Though designed for radio astronomy data, it can be adapted for other data processing applications. Stimela2 represents workflows by linear, concise and intuitive YAML-format "recipes". Atomic data reduction tasks (binary executables, Python functions and code, and CASA tasks) are described by YAML-format "cab definitions" detailing each task's "schema" (inputs and outputs). Stimela2 provides a rich syntax for chaining tasks together, and encourages a high degree of modularity: recipes may be nested into other recipes, and configuration is cleanly separated from recipe logic. Tasks can be executed natively or in isolated environments using containerization technologies such as Apptainer. Stimela2 facilitates the deployment of scalable, distributed workflows by interfacing with the Slurm scheduler and the Kubernetes API, the latter allowing workflows to be readily deployed in the cloud.

[ascl:2412.003] dask-ms: xarray datasets from CASA tables

dask-ms constructs xarray datasets from CASA tables, thus providing a data access layer for Measurement Set v2.0 data. It supports the CASA Data Table System, Zarr and Apache Arrow formats, but abstracts them away from the developer at the xarray dataset level. It therefore serves as a basis for writing distributed PyData Radio Astronomy applications and supports writing variables back to the respective column in the Table. The intention behind dask-ms is to support the Measurement Set as a data source and sink for the purposes of writing parallel, distributed radio astronomy algorithms.

[ascl:2412.009] Codex Africanus: Radio astronomy algorithms library

Codex Africanus presents radio astronomy algorithms to the user as modular functions accepting NumPy inputs and producing NumPy outputs. Internally, it uses Numba to accelerate these codes and Dask to parallelize and distribute them. The library contains functions for plotting convolution filters and tapers associated with convolution filters and can compute the discretised direct Fourier transform (DFT) for an ideal interferometer. Codex Africanus has routines for gridding or degridding complex visibilities onto or from an image, includes deconvolution algorithms and coordinate transforms, and many other functions.
