libwwz 1.3.4

Library for computing the weighted wavelet Z transform.

libwwz

Description

This library provides functions for computing the Weighted Wavelet Z-Transform using Python v3.6+.

The code is based on Foster's and Templeton's Fortran code as well as eaydin's Python 2.7 WWZ library. The code is updated to use modern numpy methods and allow for float value tau.

Specific equations can be found on Grant Foster's Wavelets for period analysis of unevenly sampled time series.

Installation

Install with pip

pip install libwwz

Install from source

• Clone this repository from https://github.com/RedVoxInc/libwwz/
• Run pip3 install . --upgrade --no-cache from the project root

Usage

The wwt function is available after importing libwwz.

import libwwz

result: np.ndarray = libwwz.wwt(...)

Examples

Full examples can be found in the examples directory.

Contributors and Funding

This project was funded by Consortium of Enabling Technologies and Innovation (ETI) under the Department of Energy (DOE) through University of Hawaiʻi.

I would like to thank my advisor Milton A. Garcés, Ph.D. for the continuing support and advice on this code.

Development

Contributions are welcome.

If you would like to contribute:

• Open a new issue on BitBucket
• Fork and then clone this repository (https://github.com/RedVoxInc/libwwz/)
• Install the development requirements in dev_requirements.txt with pip install -r dev_requirements.txt
• Create a new branch in your forked repo following the format of issue-[issue number]
• Make your modifications, commit, and push to your forked repository
• Create a pull request

Before you commit:

• Follow Python's pep8 guidelines
• Create unit tests for changes
• Ensure that all current tests pass by running the run_tests.sh script
• Lint the code using pylint by running the run_pylint.sh script, do not make a pull request until there are no linting errors
• Statically check types using mypy by running the run_mypy.sh script, do not make a pull request until all typing errors are resolved

Always remember The Zen of Python

Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Flat is better than nested.
Sparse is better than dense.
Readability counts.
Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
Although practicality beats purity.
Errors should never pass silently.
Unless explicitly silenced.
In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.
Although that way may not be obvious at first unless you're Dutch.
Now is better than never.
Although never is often better than *right* now.
If the implementation is hard to explain, it's a bad idea.
If the implementation is easy to explain, it may be a good idea.
Namespaces are one honking great idea -- let's do more of those!
