autolens.Grid1D#

class Grid1D[source]#

Bases: Structure

A grid of 1D (x) coordinates, which are paired to a uniform 1D mask of pixels. Each entry on the grid corresponds to the (x) coordinates at the centre of a pixel of an unmasked pixel.

A Grid1D is ordered such that pixels begin from the left (e.g. index [0]) of the corresponding mask and go right. The positive x-axis is to the right.

The grid can be stored in two formats:

  • slimmed: all masked entries are removed so the ndarray is shape [total_unmasked_coordinates, 2]

  • native: it retains the original shape of the grid so the ndarray is shape [total_unmasked_coordinates, 2].

__slim__

The Grid1D is an ndarray of shape [total_unmasked_coordinates].

The first element of the ndarray corresponds to the pixel index. For example:

  • grid[3] = the 4th unmasked pixel’s x-coordinate.

  • grid[6] = the 7th unmasked pixel’s x-coordinate.

Below is a visual illustration of a grid, where a total of 3 pixels are unmasked and are included in the grid.

<--- -ve  x  +ve -->

x x x O o x O x x x

This is an example mask.Mask1D, where:

x = `True` (Pixel is masked and excluded from the grid)
O = `False` (Pixel is not masked and included in the grid)

The mask pixel index’s will come out like this (and the direction of scaled coordinates is highlighted around the mask.

pixel_scales = 1.0"

<--- -ve  x  +ve -->

x x x 0 1 x 2 x x x

grid[0] = [-1.5]
grid[1] = [-0.5]
grid[2] = [1.5]

__native__

The Grid2D has the same properties as Case 1, but is stored as an an ndarray of shape [total_x_coordinates].

All masked entries on the grid has (y,x) values of (0.0, 0.0).

For the following example mask:

x x x O O x O x x x

- grid[0] = 0.0 (it is masked, thus zero)
- grid[1] = 0.0 (it is masked, thus zero)
- grid[2] = 0.0 (it is masked, thus zero)
- grid[3] = -1.5
- grid[4] = -0.5
- grid[5] = 0.0 (it is masked, thus zero)
- grid[6] = 0.5

Grid1D Mapping

Every set of (x) coordinates in a pixel of the grid maps to an unmasked pixel in the mask. For a uniform grid, every x coordinate directly corresponds to the location of its paired unmasked pixel.

It is not a requirement that grid is uniform and that their coordinates align with the mask. The input grid could be an irregular set of x coordinates where the indexing signifies that the x coordinate originates or is paired with the mask’s pixels but has had its value change by some aspect of the calculation.

This is important for the child project PyAutoLens, where grids in the image-plane are ray-traced and deflected to perform lensing calculations. The grid indexing is used to map pixels between the image-plane and source-plane.

Parameters:
  • values (Union[ndarray, List]) – The (y,x) coordinates of the grid.

  • mask (Mask1D) – The 2D mask associated with the grid, defining the pixels each grid coordinate is paired with and originates from.

classmethod no_mask(values, pixel_scales, origin=(0.0,))[source]#

Create a Grid1D (see Grid1D.__new__) by inputting the grid coordinates in 1D.

Parameters:
  • values (Union[ndarray, List]) – The (y,x) coordinates of the grid input as an ndarray of shape [total_unmasked_pixels, 2] or a list of lists.

  • pixel_scales (Union[Tuple[float], Tuple[float, float], float]) – The (y,x) arcsecond-to-pixel units conversion factor of every pixel. If this is input as a float, it is converted to a (float, float).

  • origin (Tuple[float]) – The origin of the grid’s mask.

Return type:

grid_2d_radial_projected_from(angle=0.0)[source]#

Project the 1D grid of (y,x) coordinates to an irregular 2d grid of (y,x) coordinates. The projection works as follows:

1) Map the 1D (x) coordinates to 2D along the x-axis, such that the x value of every 2D coordinate is the corresponding (x) value in the 1D grid, and every y value is 0.0.

  1. Rotate this projected 2D grid clockwise by the input angle.

Parameters:

angle (float) – The angle with which the project 2D grid of coordinates is rotated clockwise.

Returns:

The projected and rotated 2D grid of (y,x) coordinates.

Return type:
