espm: The Electron Spectro-Microscopy Python Library

The espm package is designed for simulation and physics-guided NMF decomposition of hyperspectral data. Even though the package is mainly centered around electron spectro-microscopy applications, custom models can be implemented for other type of data. Currently espm supports the simulation and analysis of simultaneous scanning transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (STEM / EDXS). In future implementation, we will try to extend the package to support electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS).

The main components of the package are:

• The simulation of STEM-EDXS datasets using :mod:espm.datasets which combines :mod:espm.weights for the simulation of spatial distributions and :mod:èspm.models for the simulation of spectra.
• The hyperspectral unmixing of STEM-EDXS spectrum images using :mod:espm.estimators. This module contains algorithms to perform non-negative matrix factorization with diverse regularisation (e.g. Laplacian or L1) and contraints (e.g. simplex).
• The :mod:espm.models module can also be used to perform a physics-guided decomposition of STEM-EDXS datasets.

Installation

You can install this package from PyPi using::

$ pip install espm

If you want to develop, please use the option::

$ git clone https://github.com/adriente/espm.git
