class pyFAI.utils.bayes.BayesianBackground

Bases: object

This class estimates the background of a powder diffraction pattern

http://journals.iucr.org/j/issues/2001/03/00/he0278/he0278.pdf

The log likelihood is described in correspond to eq7 of the paper:

\[z = y / sigma^2\]
  • if z<0 a quadratic behaviour is expected

  • if z>>1 it is likely a bragg peak so the penalty should be small: log(z).

  • The spline is used to have a quadratic behaviour near 0 and the log one near the junction

The threshold is taken at 8 as erf is 1 above 6: The points 6, 7 and 8 are used in the spline to ensure a continuous junction with the logarithmic continuation.
