CleanFlickerNoiseStep

class jwst.clean_flicker_noise.CleanFlickerNoiseStep(name=None, parent=None, config_file=None, _validate_kwds=True, **kws)[source]

Bases: JwstStep

Perform flicker noise correction.

Create a Step instance.

Parameters:

namestr: The name of the Step instance. Used in logging messages and in cache filenames. If not provided, one will be generated based on the class name.
parentStep: The parent step of this step. Used to determine a fully-qualified name for this step, and to determine the mode in which to run this step.
config_filestr or pathlib.Path: The path to the config file that this step was initialized with. Use to determine relative path names of other config files.
_validate_kwdsbool: Validate given kws against specs/config.
**kwsdict: Additional parameters to set. These will be set as member variables on the new Step instance.

Methods Documentation

process(input_data)[source]

Fit and subtract 1/f background noise from a ramp data set.

Input data is expected to be a ramp file (RampModel), in between jump and ramp fitting steps, or a rate file (ImageModel or CubeModel).

Correction algorithms implemented are:

“fft”: Background noise is fit in frequency space.
Implementation is based on the NSClean algorithm, developed by Bernard Rauscher.

“median”: Background noise is characterized by a median along the detector slow axis. Implementation is based on the “image1overf” algorithm, developed by Chris Willott.

Parameters:

input_dataDataModel: Input datamodel to be corrected

Returns:

output_modelDataModel: The flicker noise corrected datamodel
