What is it?

Simulation library for very simple simulations to benchmark machine learning algorithms.

Why do we need it? Why is it useful?

1. There are very universally recognized scientifically meaningful benchmark data sets, or methods with which to generate them.
2. A very simple data set will have objects, patterns, and signals that are intuitively quantifiable and will be fast to generate.
3. A very simple data set will be a great testing ground for new networks and for newcomers to practice with the technology.

General Features

1. very fast to generate
2. Mimics in a very basic / toy way what is in astro images
3. Be fully controllable parametrically

Included Simulations

1. Astronomy Objects - simple astronomical object simulation

   • Galaxy, Spiral Galaxy, Star

2. Shapes - simple 2D geometric shapes

   • Rectangle, Regular Polygon, Arc, Line, Ellipse

3. Physics Objects - simple physics simulations

   • Newtonian Pendulum, Hamiltonian Pendulum

Example

Standalone

• Produce 3 instance of a pendulum over 10 different times with some level of noise.

  
  import numpy as np
  from deepbench.collection import Collection

configuration = { "object_type": "physics", "object_name": "Pendulum", "total_runs": 3, "parameter_noise": 0.2, "image_parameters": { "pendulum_arm_length": 2, "starting_angle_radians": 0.25, "acceleration_due_to_gravity": 9.8, "noise_std_percent":{ "acceleration_due_to_gravity": 0 } }, "object_parameters":{ "time": np.linspace(0, 1, 10) } }

phy_objects = Collection(configuration)

phy_objects()

objects = phy_objects.objects parameters = phy_objects.object_params

* Produce a noisy shape image with a rectangle and an arc

import numpy as np from deepbench.collection import Collection

configuration = { "object_type": "shape", "object_name": "ShapeImage", "total_runs": 1, "image_parameters": { "image_shape": (28, 28), "object_noise_level": 0.6 }, "object_parameters": {

    "rectangle":{
        "object": {
            "width": np.random.default_rng().integers(2, 28),
            "height": np.random.default_rng().integers(2, 28),
            "fill": True
        },
        "instance": {}
    },
    "arc":{
        "object": {
            "radius": np.random.default_rng().integers(2, 28),
            "theta1":np.random.default_rng().integers(0, 20),
            "theta2":np.random.default_rng().integers(21, 180)
        },
        "instance":{}
    }
}

}

shape_image = Collection(configuration) shape_image()

objects = shape_image.objects parameters = shape_image.object_params

### Fine-Grained Control
* Make a whole bunch of stars

from deepbench.astro_object import StarObject import numpy as np

star = StarObject( image_dimensions = (28,28), noise_level = 0.3, radius= 0.8, amplitude = 1.0 )

generated_stars = [] x_position, y_position = np.random.default_rng().uniform(low=1, high=27, size=(2, 50)) for x_pos, y_pos in zip(x_position, y_position): star_object = star.create_object(x_pos, y_pos) generated_stars.append(star_object)
