| | 28 | * Reworked the fringe correction scale determination. There are a large number of outlying points in the distribution of fringe vs. science measurements, which can skew the best fitting line to weird results (the same chip from two MD exposures from the same night had values of 173 and -1.5). The new code fits a line to the bins of points, with the constraint that a bin must have at minimum three points to be included. This results in best fit values of ~10 for both test exposures, and similar plausible values in other tests. |
| | 29 | * Nebulous: changed the database to prevent the automounter from attempting to mount disks that no longer exist. This results in a large speed improvement of the nebdiskd script. |
| | 30 | * Detection efficiency: Made final change to IPP->OTIS interface that incorporates quality measurement based on the CDF of the det_eff value. Sent CDFs of this value to Ken for both ThreePi and MD. Discovered with Gene that the covariance bug introduces a seeing dependent variation into the detection efficiency values being calculated. |
| | 31 | * Registration: Checked that the slowdown at the rawExp advance stage is not a bug, but is due to burntool running slowly. Implemented a --continue option to ipp_apply_burntool_single.pl to allow burntool to be run on sequential exposures in one pass. This should also improve the registration speed. Noted that as the number of dates in the registration pantasks increases, the rate of burntool processing drops due to overhead in checking finished dates. |
| | 32 | * Started work on multi-date diffs to attempt to catch pairs that are split between days. Test code finished and runs, but due to weather, there have not been any such split pairs to check. |
