Statistics along the filaments #23

Closed hopehhchen closed 7 years ago

hopehhchen commented 7 years ago

I want to add functions to calculate statistics of the derived filaments. Here are some thoughts:

  1. The "shape statistics" as the code put together by HC for #19. There is a quick script in HC's repo.

  2. Other statistics along the filament, using data stored in self.image or other data (of the same shape/region).

HC is working on 2, for analyses of Per B5. After testing, it might make sense to put the scripts together with the main RadFil and structure them as PPStatistics and PPVStatistics in astrodendro.

See the scripts in HC's repo. HC will test the scripts on other data and discuss with CZ for merging.

Note for dependencies: Certain calculations in the scripts are dependent on functions in HCPy.py. Check before merging.

This can wait till the next version of RadFil. HC will keep working on the statistics codes.
