openpiv.validation.sig2noise_val

openpiv.validation.sig2noise_val(s2n: ndarray, threshold: float = 1.05) → ndarray[source]

Marks spurious vectors if signal to noise ratio is below a specified threshold.

Parameters

  • u (2d or 3d np.ndarray) – a two or three dimensional array containing the u velocity component.

  • v (2d or 3d np.ndarray) – a two or three dimensional array containing the v velocity component.

  • s2n (2d np.ndarray) – a two or three dimensional array containing the value of the signal to noise ratio from cross-correlation function.

  • w (2d or 3d np.ndarray) – a two or three dimensional array containing the w (in z-direction) velocity component.

  • threshold (float) – the signal to noise ratio threshold value.

Returns

mask – a boolean array. True elements corresponds to outliers.

Return type

boolean 2d np.ndarray
