Framework for fitting models to (spectroscopic) data.

Project description

FitPy is a framework for the advanced fitting of models to spectroscopic data focussing on reproducibility. Supported are semi-stochastic sampling of starting conditions, global fitting of several datasets at once, and fitting several concurrent models to one dataset. FitPy builds upon and extends the ASpecD framework. At the same time, it relies on the SciPy software stack and on lmfit for its fitting capabilities.

Making use of the concept of recipe-driven data analysis, actual fitting no longer requires programming skills, but is as simple as writing a text file defining both, the model and the fitting parameters in an organised way. Curious? Have a look at the following example:

format:
  type: ASpecD recipe
  version: '0.2'

datasets:
  - /path/to/dataset

tasks:
  - kind: model
    type: Gaussian
    properties:
      parameters:
        position: 1.5
        width: 0.5
    from_dataset: /path/to/dataset
    output: model
    result: gaussian_model

  - kind: fitpy.singleanalysis
    type: SimpleFit
    properties:
      model: gaussian_model
      parameters:
        fit:
          amplitude:
            start: 5
            range: [3, 7]
    result: fitted_gaussian

For more general information on the FitPy framework see its homepage, and for how to use it, its documentation.

Features

A list of features, planned for the first public release:

  • Framework for the advanced fitting of models to spectroscopic data focussing on reproducibility.

  • Simple user interface requiring no programming skills.

  • Semi-stochastic sampling of starting conditions (Latin hypercube sampling, LHS)

  • Global fitting of several datasets at once

  • Fitting of several concurrent models (i.e., “species”) to one dataset
