better handle negative fluxes: warning of potential problematic epochs #1

Closed orionlee closed 8 months ago

orionlee commented 8 months ago

Handling of some boundary cases:

  1. More robust centroid calculation when the difference image's fluxes are all negative.
  2. Replace the automatic epoch discard (by detection of data gaps) with warnings of potential problematic epochs with outlier detection.
  3. A new optional parameter mask, to allow users to mask out arbitrary pixels.
