For example, if a circle is contained in an annulus such -that the inner radius of the annulus is the same as the radius of the -circle, then photons on that boundary must always be assigned to one -or the other region. That is, the number of photons in both regions -must equal the sum of the number of photons in each region taken -separately. -.PP -With this in mind, the rules for determining whether a boundary image -pixel or table row are assigned to a region are defined below. -.PP -\&\fBImage boundaries - radially-symmetric shapes (circle, annuli, ellipse)\fR -.PP -For image filtering, pixels whose center is inside the boundary are -included. This also applies non-radially-symmetric shapes. When a -pixel center is exactly on the boundary, the pixel assignment rule is: -.IP "\(bu" 4 -the outer boundary of a symmetric shape does not include such pixels -.IP "\(bu" 4 -the inner boundary of a symmetric shape (annulus) includes such pixels -.PP -In this way, an annulus with radius from 0 to 1, centered exactly on a -pixel, includes the pixel on which it is centered, but none of its -neighbors. -.PP -These rules ensure that when defining concentric shapes, no pixels are -omitted between concentric regions and no pixels are claimed by two -regions. When applied to small symmetric shapes, the shape is less -likely to be skewed, as would happen with non-radially-symmetric -rules. These rules differ from the rules for box-like shapes, which -are more likely to be positioned adjacent to one another. -.PP -\&\fBImage Boundaries: non-radially symmetric shapes (polygons, boxes)\fR -.PP -For image filtering, pixels whose center is inside the boundary are -included. This also applies radially-symmetric shapes. When a pixel -center is exactly on the boundary of a non-radially symmetric region, -the pixel is included in the right or upper region, but not the left -or lower region. This ensures that geometrically adjoining regions -touch but don't overlap. -.PP -\&\fBRow Boundaries are Analytic\fR -.PP -When filtering table rows, the boundary rules are the same as for -images, except that the calculation is not done on the center of a -pixel, (since table rows, especially X\-ray events rows, often have -discrete, floating point positions) but are calculated exactly. That -is, an row is inside the boundary without regard to its integerized -pixel value. For rows that are exactly on a region boundary, the -above rules are applied to ensure that all rows are counted once and -no row is counted more than once. -.PP -Because row boundaries are calculated differently from image boundaries, -certain programs will give different results when filtering the same -region file. In particular, fundisp/funtable (which utilize analytic -row filtering) perform differently from funcnts (which performs image -filtering, even on tables). -.PP -\&\fBImage Boundaries vs. Row Boundaries: Practical Considerations\fR -.PP -You will sometimes notice a discrepancy between running funcnts on an -binary table file and running fundisp on the same file with the same filter. -For example, consider the following: -.PP -.Vb 2 -\& fundisp test1.fits"[box(4219,3887,6,6,0)]" | wc -\& 8893 320148 3752846 -.Ve -.PP -Since fundisp has a 2\-line header, there are actually 8891 photons -that pass the filter. But then run funtable and select only the -rows that pass this filter, placing them in a new file: -.PP -.Vb 1 -\& ./funtable test1.fits"[box(4219,3887,6,6,0)]" test2.fits -.Ve -.PP -Now run funcnts using the original filter on the derived file: -.PP -.Vb 1 -\& ./funcnts test2.fits "physical; box(4219,3887,6,6,0)" -.Ve -.PP -.Vb 1 -\& [... lot of processed output ...] -.Ve -.PP -.Vb 4 -\& # the following source and background components were used: -\& source region(s) -\& ---------------- -\& physical; box(4219,3887,6,6,0) -.Ve -.PP -.Vb 3 -\& reg counts pixels -\& ---- ------------ --------- -\& 1 7847.000 36 -.Ve -.PP -There are 1044 rows (events) that pass the row filter in fundisp (or -funtable) but fail to make it through funcnts. Why? -.PP -The reason can be traced to how analytic row filtering (fundisp, funtable) -differs from integerized pixel filtering(funcnts, funimage). Consider the -region: -.PP -.Vb 1 -\& box(4219,3887,6,6,0) -.Ve -.PP -Analytically (i.e., using row filtering), positions will pass this -filter successfully if: -.PP -.Vb 2 -\& 4216 <= x <= 4222 -\& 3884 <= y <= 3890 -.Ve -.PP -For example, photons with position values of x=4216.4 or y=3884.08 will pass. -.PP -Integerized image filtering is different in that the pixels that will -pass this filter have centers at: -.PP -.Vb 2 -\& x = 4217, 4218, 4219, 4220, 4221, 4222 -\& y = 3885, 3886, 3887, 3888, 3889, 3890 -.Ve -.PP -Note that there are 6 pixels in each direction, as specified by the region. -That means that positions will pass the filter successfully if: -.PP -.Vb 2 -\& 4217 <= (int)x <= 4222 -\& 3885 <= (int)y <= 3890 -.Ve -.PP -Photons with position values of x=4216.4 or y=3884.08 will \s-1NOT\s0 pass. -.PP -Note that the position values are integerized, in effect, binned into -image values. This means that x=4222.4 will pass this filter, but not -the analytic filter above. We do this to maintain the design goal that -either all counts in a pixel are included in an integerized filter, or -else none are included. -.PP -[It could be argued that the correct photon limits for floating point -row data really should be: -.PP -.Vb 2 -\& 4216.5 <= x <= 4222.5 -\& 3884.5 <= y <= 3890.5 -.Ve -.PP -since each pixel extends for .5 on either side of the center. We chose -to the maintain integerized algorithm for all image-style filtering so -that funcnts would give the exact same results regardless of whether -a table or a derived non-blocked binned image is used.] -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.IX Header "SEE ALSO" -See funtools(7) for a list of Funtools help pages |
