kalman_detector 0.0.4

Detect radio bursts with variying intensity

This module implements the kalman detector score along with the equivalent cumulative fourier

score. Score is designed to receive X(f), a sequence of “amplitudes” (where f is an arbitrary indexed parameter) and decide between: H0: X(f) = N(f) pure gaussian noise H1: X(f) = A(f) + N(f) where A(f) is a smooth gaussian field with a low-pass power spectra where the smoothness parameter unknown. Was originally written for detecting Fast Radio Bursts, but can be used to many other types of signals including AGN light curves.
