Summary

Stitches histogram matrix workspaces together

Properties

Name Direction Type Default Description
InputWorkspaces Input str list   Input Workspaces. List of histogram workspaces to stitch together.
OutputWorkspace Output Workspace Mandatory Output stitched workspace.
Params Input dbl list   Rebinning Parameters. See Rebin for format.
StartOverlaps Input dbl list   Start overlaps for stitched workspaces.
EndOverlaps Input dbl list   End overlaps for stitched workspaces.
ScaleRHSWorkspace Input boolean True Scaling either with respect to workspace 1 or workspace 2
UseManualScaleFactor Input boolean False True to use a provided value for the scale factor.
ManualScaleFactor Input number 1 Provided value for the scale factor.
OutScaleFactors Output dbl list   The actual used values for the scaling factors at each stitch step.

Description

Stitches single histogram Matrix Workspaces together outputting a stitched Matrix Workspace. This algorithm is a wrapper over Stitch1D v3.

The algorithm expects pairs of StartOverlaps and EndOverlaps values. The order in which these are provided determines the pairing. There should be N entries in each of these StartOverlaps and EndOverlaps lists, where N = 1 -(No of workspaces to stitch). StartOverlaps and EndOverlaps are in the same units as the X-axis for the workspace and are optional.

The workspaces must be histogrammed. Use ConvertToHistogram v1 on workspaces prior to passing them to this algorithm.

Usage

Example - a basic example using Stitch1DMany to stitch two workspaces together.

import numpy as np

def gaussian(x, mu, sigma):
  """Creates a gaussian peak centered on mu and with width sigma."""
  return (1/ sigma * np.sqrt(2 * np.pi)) * np.exp( - (x-mu)**2  / (2*sigma**2))

#create two histograms with a single peak in each one
x1 = np.arange(-1, 1, 0.02)
x2 = np.arange(0.4, 1.6, 0.02)
ws1 = CreateWorkspace(UnitX="1/q", DataX=x1, DataY=gaussian(x1[:-1], 0, 0.1)+1)
ws2 = CreateWorkspace(UnitX="1/q", DataX=x2, DataY=gaussian(x2[:-1], 1, 0.05)+1)

#stitch the histograms together
workspaces = ws1.name() + "," + ws2.name()
stitched, scale = Stitch1DMany(InputWorkspaces=workspaces, StartOverlaps=[0.4], EndOverlaps=[0.6], Params=[0.02])

Output:

Stitch1D output

Example - a practical example using reflectometry data and a scale factor.

trans1 = Load('INTER00013463')
trans2 = Load('INTER00013464')

trans1_wav = CreateTransmissionWorkspaceAuto(trans1)
trans2_wav = CreateTransmissionWorkspaceAuto(trans2)

workspaces = trans1_wav.name() + ',' + trans2_wav.name()
stitched_wav, y = Stitch1DMany(workspaces, params='1, 0.05, 17', UseManualScaleFactor=True, ManualScaleFactor=0.85)

Output:

Stitch1D output
