pyBSM

pyBSM is a Python-based tool for sensor modeling. It provides common components useful for simulating the image formation process through different imaging systems.

This repo builds off of the work done by LeMaster and Eismann in creating the original pyBSM package for modeling image systems [1] as well as LeMaster, et al. in their work in validating the pyBSM package [2].

NOTE: A set of functions which infer OTFs from user data has been removed from the current distribution of pyBSM. They are archived under the v0.7.0 tag if they are needed.

Installation

Ensure the source tree is acquired locally before proceeding.

To install the current version via pip:

pip install pybsm

Alternatively, you can use Poetry:

poetry install --with main,linting,tests,docs

For more detailed installation instructions, visit the installation documentation.

Getting Started

Explore usage examples of the pybsm package in various contexts using the Jupyter notebooks provided in the ./examples/ directory.

Contributions are encouraged! For more details, refer to the CONTRIBUTING.md file.

Documentation

Documentation for both release snapshots and the latest master branch is available on ReadTheDocs.

To build the Sphinx-based documentation locally for the latest reference:

# Install dependencies
poetry install --sync --with main,linting,tests,docs
# Navigate to the documentation root
cd docs
# Build the documentation
poetry run make html
# Open the generated documentation in your browser
firefox _build/html/index.html

Developer Tools

Pre-commit Hooks

Pre-commit hooks ensure that code complies with required linting and formatting guidelines. These hooks run automatically before commits but can also be executed manually. To bypass checks during a commit, use the --no-verify flag.

To install and use pre-commit hooks:

# Install required dependencies
poetry install --sync --with main,linting,tests,docs
# Initialize pre-commit hooks for the repository
poetry run pre-commit install
# Run pre-commit checks on all files
poetry run pre-commit run --all-files
