Precomposed Modules#

For convenience, we provide some “precomposed” modules which may be useful for simple imaging or modeling applications. In general, though, we encourage you to compose your own set of layers if your application requires it. The source code for a precomposed network can provide useful a starting point. We also recommend checking out the PyTorch documentation on modules.

class mpol.precomposed.GriddedNet(coords: GridCoords, nchan: int = 1, base_cube: Tensor | None = None)[source]#

Note

This module is provided as a starting point. However, we recommend that you don’t get too comfortable using it and instead write your own (custom) modules following PyTorch idioms, potentially using the source of this routine as a reference point. Using the torch module system directly is much more powerful and expressive.

A basic but functional network for RML imaging. Designed to optimize a model image using the entirety of the dataset in a mpol.datasets.GriddedDataset (i.e., gradient descent). For stochastic gradient descent (SGD), where the model is only seeing a fraction of the dataset with each iteration, we recommend defining your own module in your analysis code, following the ‘Getting Started’ guide.

        graph TD
    subgraph GriddedNet
    bc(BaseCube) --> HannConvCube
    HannConvCube --> ImageCube
    ImageCube --> FourierLayer
    end
    FourierLayer --> il([Loss])
    ad[[Dataset]] --> il([Loss])

Parameters:

coords (mpol.coordinates.GridCoords)
nchan (int) – the number of channels in the base cube. Default = 1.
base_cube (mpol.images.BaseCube or None) – a pre-packed base cube to initialize the model with. If None, assumes torch.zeros.

After the object is initialized, instance variables can be accessed, for example

Variables:

bcube – the BaseCube instance
icube – the ImageCube instance
fcube – the FourierCube instance

For example, you’ll likely want to access the self.icube.sky_model at some point.

forward() → Tensor[source]#

Feed forward to calculate the model visibilities. In this step, a BaseCube is fed to a HannConvCube is fed to a ImageCube is fed to a FourierCube to produce the visibility cube.

Return type:: 1D complex torch tensor of model visibilities.

predict_loose_visibilities(uu: Tensor, vv: Tensor) → Tensor[source]#

Use the mpol.fourier.NuFFT to calculate loose model visibilities from the cube stored to self.icube.packed_cube.

Parameters:

uu (torch.Tensor of class:`torch.double) – array of u spatial frequency coordinates, not including Hermitian pairs. Units of [\(\mathrm{k}\lambda\)]
vv (torch.Tensor of class:`torch.double) – array of v spatial frequency coordinates, not including Hermitian pairs. Units of [\(\mathrm{k}\lambda\)]

Returns:

:class:`torch.Tensor` of `class – model visibilities corresponding to uu and vv locations.

Return type:

torch.complex128
