A quick walk-through of the tools that exist for analysis of xtc files with python.
The main focus is on pyana, and the examples are from and for XPP primarily,
but may be useful examples to other experiments too.

Extracting the data with pyana, some examples
Outline of a pyana module
Like the other frameworks, pyana is an executable that loops through the XTC file and calls all
requested user modules at certain transitions. All the analysts need to do is to fill in the
relevant functions in their user analysis module:
...
- Checkmark the IPM3 checkbox ('XppSb3Ipm=1|Ipimb-0')
- hit the 'Write configuration to file' button,
- hit the 'Run pyana' button
- hit 'OK' and wait till a plot pops up... Close the window and wait again...
- hit the 'Quit pyana' button
- go to the 'General Settings' tab and switch Display mode to 'SlideShow'
- go back to 'General Settings' again and change the number of events to accumulate to 240
- hit the 'Write configuration to file'
- hit the 'Edit configuration file' button. Edit the line with 'quantities = ': remove 'fex:channels' and add 'fex:ch1' and 'fex:ch0' instead
- hit 'Run pyana' button again (as well as 'OK' when that pops up). Stare at the plot for a while...

('kinit ' will ask you for your password and give you a Kerberos ticket valid for 24 h that you need to access our afs software repository) Now you have a local version of the XtcExplorer package in your directory. That allows you to edit the source code and customize the analysis modules in the XtcExplorer/src directory. Exercise for later: Edit XtcExplorer/src/pyana_ipimb.py to make a loglog plot of channel1 vs channel0. |
The xtcexplorer has several shortcomings. It tries to be very generic, and thus is sometimes slower than it would have to be. It is also currently only capable of plotting from a single device in each plot, so many correlation plots will need to be added by hand. However, it is a simple tool to just look at the data contents, and provides many examples through its pyana modules.
For some more useful analysis examples, in the following we'll stick to writing customized pyana modules and running pyana from the command line.
But before getting to the pyana modules, I'll briefly touch on a few items general to python that may be useful: saving files, matplotlib for plotting, and IPython for interactive work.
NumPy, SciPy and MatPlotLib
These are packages that you may want to look into. Pretty much all our examples here are using them:
- http://numpy.scipy.org/ - Numerical package for python (arrays etc)
- http://www.scipy.org/ - Scientific tools
- http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/ - plotting package

Plotting with MatPlotLib
One of the most commonly used tools for plotting in python: matplotlib. Other alternatives exist too.
Matplotlib:
- The plotting can be done directly in the pyana module, but be aware that you need to disable plotting for the
module to run successfully in a batch job. Code Block |
---|
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot(array)
plt.show()
|
- Or you can load arrays from a file and interactively plot them in iPython. The same ('recommended') syntax as above can be used, or if you use 'import *' you don't need to prepend the commands with the package name, which is handy when plotting interactively:
Code Block |
---|
from matplotlib.pyplot import *
ion()
plot(array)
draw()
|
Interactive analysis with IPython
The LCLS offline analysis group does have plans for a real interactive pyana, but currently this is not available.
2011-11-04 iPsana Interactive Analysis Framework.pdf
The version available in our offline release system is
IPython 0.9.1 – An enhanced Interactive Python.
so this is the one I've been using in these examples.
Not a whole lot more than a python shell.
However, the latest IPython has loads of new and interesting features...

Datatypes, and how to find data from your detector/device in the xtc file.
Pyana and psana has follows this naming scheme for labeling the datatypes from various devices. You can find the
names by investigating the xtc file with the above-mentioned tools (pyxtcreader, xtcscanner, xtcexplorer).
To see some examples of how to fetch the various data types in pyana (or psana), look at Devices and Datatypes.
Point detector delay scan
The python code for this pyana module resides in pyana_examples/src/xppt_delayscan.py
. In this example, we do a point detector delay scan, where we get the time as scan points via a control PV, and where time rebinning based on phase cavity measurement is used to improve the time resolution. One IPIMB device (a.k.a. IPM3) is used for normalization (i0, I Zero) (parameter name ipimb_norm) and another IPIMB device (a.k.a. PIM3) channel 1 is used as the signal (parameter name ipimb_sig).
Panel |
---|
Open an editor and save the following in a file named pyana.cfg: Code Block |
---|
|
[pyana]
modules = pyana_examples.xppt_delayscan
[pyana_examples.xppt_delayscan]
controlpv = fs2:ramp_angsft_target
ipimb_norm = XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0
ipimb_sig = XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0
threshold = 0.1
outputfile = point_scan_delay.npy
|
If you look at the code (pyana_examples/src/xppt_delayscan.py) you'll notice there are no detector names in there. The names of the detectors in the XTC file are passed as parameters from the configuration file above. The ipimb_norm parameter represents the IPIMB diode used for normalization, and the configuration files set its value to "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. IPM3). Similarly, the IPIMB diode used for signal is represented by the pipmb_sig and its value set to "XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. PIM3). By changing these parameter values, the pyana_examples/src/xppt_delayscan.py module can easily be used for other experiments or instruments. Run pyana (start with 200 events): Code Block |
---|
|
pyana -n 200 /reg/d/psdm/XPP/xppi0310/xtc/e81-r0098-s0*
|
|
...
- Fetching the ControlPV information:
ControlPV is available from the env
object, and since it only changes at the beginning
of each calibration cycle, the begincalibcycle
function is the appropriate place to get it:
Code Block |
---|
|
def begincalibcycle( self, evt, env ) :
|
The ControlConfig object may contain several pvControl and pvMonitor objects. In this case
there's only one, but make sure the name matches anyway: Code Block |
---|
|
ctrl_config = env.getConfig(TypeId.Type.Id_ControlConfig)
for ic in range (0, ctrl_config.npvControls() ):
cpv = ctrl_config.pvControl(ic)
if cpv.name()=="fs2:ramp_angsft_target":
# store the value in a class variable (visible in every class method)
self.current_pv_value = cpv.value() )
|
- Fetching the IPIMB and PhaseCavity information:
All the other information that we need, is available through the evt
object, and
event
member function is the place to get it:
Code Block |
---|
|
def event( self, evt, env ) :
|
Use "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. IPM3) sum of all channels for normalization and filtering
Code Block |
---|
|
ipmN_raw = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpimbData, "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0")
ipmN_fex = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpmFex, "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0")
ipmN_norm = ipmN_fex.sum
|
Use "XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. PIM3) channel 1 as signal
Code Block |
---|
|
ipmS_raw = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpimbData, "XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0" )
ipmS_fex = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpmFex, "XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0" )
ipm_sig = ipmS_fex.channel[1]
|
Get the phase cavity:
Code Block |
---|
|
pc = evt.getPhaseCavity()
phasecav1 = pc.fFitTime1
phasecav2 = pc.fFitTime2
charge1 = pc.fCharge1
charge2 = pc.fCharge2
|
Compute delay time and fill histograms
Code Block |
---|
|
delaytime = self.current_pv_value + phasecav1*1e3
# The "histograms" are nothing but python lists. Append to them, and turn them into arrays at the end.
self.h_ipm_rsig.append( ipm_sig )
self.h_ipm_nsig.append( ipm_sig/ipm_norm )
self.h_delaytime.append( delaytime )
|
Image peak finding
Here are a collection of useful algorithms for image analysis: http://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/ndimage.html
The python code for this pyana module example resides in pyana_examples/src/xppt_image_analysis.py
.
This particular example is done with a CSPad image, but only a single section is available. For more typical CSPad module, see next section.
Panel |
---|
Edit pyana.cfg to include configuration for xppt_image_analysis, and comment out the delay_scan module: Code Block |
---|
|
[pyana]
modules = pyana_examples.xppt_image_analysis
#modules = pyana_examples.xppt_delayscan
[pyana_examples.xppt_image_analysis]
source = XppGon-0|Cspad-0
region = 127.3, 188.4, 95.1, 126.9
[pyana_examples.xppt_delayscan]
controlpv = fs2:ramp_angsft_target
ipimb_norm = XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0
ipimb_sig = XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0
threshold = 0.1
outputfile = point_scan_delay.npy
|
Then run the xppt_image_analysis pyana module on xppi0112 run 55: Code Block |
---|
|
pyana -n 10 /reg/d/psdm/XPP/xppi0112/xtc/e162-r0055-s00-c00.xtc
|
*Edit pyana.cfg again and comment out the region parameter (add a semicolon ";" to the beginning of the line). Run again a single event and try to select a region by mouse clicks instead:* Code Block |
---|
|
pyana -n 1 /reg/d/psdm/XPP/xppi0112/xtc/e162-r0055-s00-c00.xtc
|
- Hit the "Zoom to rectangle" button in the matplotlib toolbar.
- Zoom in on a rectangle around the bright spot in the "Region of interest" plot to the right.
- You should now see the region marked out in the left window.
- Hit the "Zoom" button once more, to go back to normal mode.
- Click on the red rectangle in the left plot to print the region parameters and new Center of mass to screen.
|
Here are some code snippet highlights from the xppt_image_analysis.py module:
- For each event, fetch the CsPad information, and get the image array:
Code Block |
---|
|
def event( self, evt, env ) :
elements = evt.getCsPadQuads(self.source, env)
image = elements[0].data().reshape(185, 388)
|
- Select a region of interest. If none is given (optional module parameter), set RoI to be the whole image.
Code Block |
---|
|
# Region of Interest (RoI)
if self.roi is None:
self.roi = [ 0, image.shape[1], 0, image.shape[0] ] # [x1,x2,y1,y2]
print "ROI [x1, x2, y1, y2] = ", self.roi
|
- Using only the RoI subset of the image, compute center-of-mass using one of the SciPy.ndimamge algorithms. Add to it the position of the RoI to get the CMS in global pixel coordinates:
Code Block |
---|
|
roi_array = image[self.roi[2]:self.roi[3],self.roi[0]:self.roi[1]]
cms = scipy.ndimage.measurements.center_of_mass(roi_array)
print "Center-of-mass of the ROI: (x, y) = (%.2f, %.2f)" %(self.roi[0]+cms[1],self.roi[2]+cms[0])
|
- Here's an example how you can make an interactive plot and select the Region of Interest with the mouse. Here we plot the image in two axes (subpads on the canvas). The first will always show the full image. In the second axes, you can select a rectangular region in "Zoom" mode (click on the Toolbar's Zoom button). The selected region will be drawn on top of the full image to the left, while the right plot will zoom into the selected region:
Code Block |
---|
|
fig = plt.figure(1,figsize=(16,5))
axes1 = fig.add_subplot(121)
axes2 = fig.add_subplot(122)
axim1 = axes1.imshow(image)
axes1.set_title("Full image")
axim2 = axes2.imshow(roi_array, extent=(self.roi[0],self.roi[1],self.roi[3],self.roi[2]))
axes2.set_title("Region of Interest")
# rectangular ROI selector
rect = UpdatingRect([0, 0], 0, 0, facecolor='None', edgecolor='red', picker=10)
rect.set_bounds(*axes2.viewLim.bounds)
axes1.add_patch(rect)
# Connect for changing the view limits
axes2.callbacks.connect('xlim_changed', rect)
axes2.callbacks.connect('ylim_changed', rect)
|
- To compute the center-of-mass of the selected region, revert back to non-zoom mode (hit the 'zoom' button again) and click on the rectangle. The rectangle is connected to the 'onpick' function which updates
self.roi
and computes the center-of-mass: Code Block |
---|
|
def onpick(event):
xrange = axes2.get_xbound()
yrange = axes2.get_ybound()
self.roi = [ xrange[0], xrange[1], yrange[0], yrange[1]]
roi_array = image[self.roi[2]:self.roi[3],self.roi[0]:self.roi[1]]
cms = scipy.ndimage.measurements.center_of_mass(roi_array)
print "Center-of-mass of the ROI: (x, y) = (%.2f, %.2f)" % (self.roi[0]+cms[1],self.roi[2]+cms[0])
fig.canvas.mpl_connect('pick_event', onpick)
plt.draw()
|
CSPad images and tile arangements
The python code for this pyana module example resides in XtcExplorer/src/pyana_image.py
.
Panel |
---|
Try some plotting of CSPad data using xtcexplorer. Launch the explorer and load xpp48712 run 66 (a dark run): Code Block |
---|
|
xtcexplorer /reg/d/psdm/XPP/xpp48712/xtc/e153-r0066-s00-c00.xtc
|
- *Look through a couple of events, then "Quit Pyana" and edit the configuration file. Add an output file name, and switch to "NoDisplay" and run 100 events to collect an average of dark images.
- With darks collected, load another file from the same experiment: run 141. Edit the pyana configuration file to use the file you just generated to subtract darks. Run the explorer in "SlideShow" mode again.
- Change the color scale of the plot by left and right clicking on the colorbar.

CSPad data structure
CSPad data in xtc is a list of elements. In pyana get the list from the evt (event) object (notice the need for the env (environment) object too!):
Code Block |
---|
|
elements = evt.getCsPadQuads(self.source, env)
|
elements
here is a python list of ElementV1 or ElementV2 (or later versions) objects, each representing one quadrant. The list is not ordered, so to know which quadrant you have, you have to check with element.quad()
. To store a local array of the whole CSPad detector, you can do the following.
- In beginjob, find out from the configuration object what part of the CSPad was in use (sometimes sections are missing):
Code Block |
---|
|

What we have so far gives you a 4d numpy array of all pixels. And if you want to store it in e.g. a numpy array, you can reshape it down to 2 dimensions (this is the format of the official pedestal files made by the translator):

pixels = pixel_array.reshape(1480,388)
np.save("pixel_pedestal_file.npy", pixels )

CSPad tile arrangement
To get a rough picture of the full detector, here's an example of how XtcExplorer/src/cspad.py does it:
- For each Quadrant (cspad_layout.txt):
Code Block |

def get_quad_image( self, data3d, qn) :
"""get_quad_image
Get an image for this quad (qn)
@param data3d 3d data array (row vs. col vs. section)
@param qn quad number
"""
pairs = []
for i in range (8) :
# 1) insert gap between asics in the 2x1
asics = np.hsplit( data3d[i], 2)
gap = np.zeros( (185,3), dtype=data3d.dtype )
#
# gap should be 3 pixels wide
pair = np.hstack( (asics[0], gap, asics[1]) )
# all sections are originally 185 (rows) x 388 (columns)
# Re-orient each section in the quad
if i==0 or i==1 :
pair = pair[:,::-1].T # reverse columns, switch columns to rows.
if i==4 or i==5 :
pair = pair[::-1,:].T # reverse rows, switch rows to columns
pairs.append( pair )
if self.small_angle_tilt :
pair = scipy.ndimage.interpolation.rotate(pair,self.tilt_array[qn][i])
# make the array for this quadrant
quadrant = np.zeros( (850, 850), dtype=data3d.dtype )
# insert the 2x1 sections according to
for sec in range (8):
nrows, ncols = pairs[sec].shape

Point detector delay scan
- Fetching the ControlPV information:
ControlPV is available from the env
object, and since it only changes at the beginning
of each calibration cycle, the begincalibcycle
function is the appropriate place to get it:
Code Block |
---|
none | none |
def begincalibcycle( self, evt, env ) :
|
The ControlConfig object may contain several pvControl and pvMonitor objects. In this case
there's only one, but make sure the name matches anyway: Code Block |
---|
none | none |
ctrl_config = env.getConfig(TypeId.Type.Id_ControlConfig)
for ic in range (0, ctrl_config.npvControls() ):
cpv = ctrl_config.pvControl(ic)
if cpv.name()=="fs2:ramp_angsft_target":
# store the value in a class variable (visible in every class method)
# colp,rowp are self.current_pv_value = cpv.value() )

Fetching the IPIMB and PhaseCavity information:
All the other information that we need, is available through the evt
object, and
event
member function is the place to get it:
Code Block |
---|
none | none | where the top-left corner of a section should be placed
def event( self, evt, env ) :

Use "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. IPM3) sum of all channels for normalization and filtering
Code Block |

none | none |
rowp = 850 - self.sec_offset[0] - (self.section_centers[0][qn][sec] + nrows/2)
ipmN_rawcolp = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpimbData, "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0")
850 - self.sec_offset[1] - (self.section_centers[1][qn][sec] + ncols/2)
ipmN_fex = evt.get(TypeId.Type.Id_IpmFex, "XppSb3Ipm-1|Ipimb-0")quadrant[rowp:rowp+nrows, colp:colp+ncols] = pairs[sec][0:nrows,0:ncols]
ipmN_norm = ipmN_fex.sum
|
Use "XppSb3Pim-1|Ipimb-0" (a.k.a. PIM3) channel 1 as signal
Then combine all four quadrant images into the full detector image:
...
...
...
zeros((2*850+100, 2*850+100 ), dtype="float64")
for quad in xrange (4):

Fine tuning
Notice that the code snippets above make use of some predefined quantities which it reads in from "calibration files". The files contains calibrated numerical values for individual sections' and quads' rotations and shifts. All of these files are located in the experiment's 'calib' folder, but is not generated automatically. The XtcExplorer currently has a local version which is not correct but which is close enough to display a reasonable image. For how the files have been read in, you can take a look at XtcExplorer/src/cspad.py
's read_alignment
function.
For how to find the correct constants for each experiment, look at the CSPAD Alignment page.
Non-interactive batch analysis
Pyana jobs are designed to do batch analysis, but matplotlib plotting does not go well with this. If you want your job to produce graphics, make sure to use a matplotlib backend that writes the graphics directly to file, e.g. png files.
Multiprocessing
Pyana can make use of multiple core processing. On the command line, add the option '-p N' where N is the number of cores to use.
Extra care needs to be taken when plotting. Also, output files need to be made with the pyana mkfile command. The output will be merged at the end of the job, but may not be in order. So if you need events to be written to a file in chronological order, you're better off using single core processing.

Interactive analysis with IPython
The version available in our offline release system is
IPython 0.9.1 – An enhanced Interactive Python.
so this is the one I've been using in these examples.
Not a whole lot more than a python shell.
However, the latest IPython has loads of new and interesting features...

Plotting with MatPlotLib
- The plotting can be done directly in the pyana module, but be aware that you need to disable plotting for the
module to run successfully in a batch job. Code Block |
---|
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.plot(array)
plt.show()
|
Or you can load arrays from a file and interactively plot them in iPython.
Code Block |
---|
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.ion()
plt.plot(array)
plt.draw()
