Error correction

error_correction.py

Module that implements the error correction over a multi-photometry.

apply_error_correction(input_multi_photometry, photometric_system=None, output_path='.', output_file='output_corrected_photometry', output_format=None, save_file=True)[source]
Apply error correction (see Montegriffo et al., 2022, for more details). Infers photometric systems

if not specified.

Parameters

  • input_multi_photometry (DataFrame) – Photometry DataFrame, can contain photometry for one or more systems.

  • photometric_system (obj) – Desired photometric system or list of photometric systems.

  • output_path (str) – Path where to save the output data.

  • output_file (str) – Name of the output file.

  • output_format (str) – Format to be used for the output file. If no format is given, then the output file will be in the same format as the input file.

  • save_file (bool) – Whether to save the output in a file. If false, output_format and output_file_name are ignored.

Returns

A DataFrame of all synthetic photometry with corrected errors for the systems

for which it is possible.

Return type

DataFrame
