PROFILE

Christopher M. Karwin

Over three months, Chris Karwin enhanced the cositools/cosipy repository by building and refining data processing and visualization features for scientific workflows. He implemented energy-based filtering for unbinned data and introduced South Atlantic Anomaly event filtering, enabling more accurate and targeted analyses. His work included integrating livetime data into processing pipelines, improving documentation and tutorials, and expanding unit test coverage to ensure reliability. Using Python and leveraging data engineering and scientific computing skills, Chris also refactored plotting logic for PsiChi maps to support robust coordinate handling and external data inputs, resulting in more maintainable, reproducible, and user-friendly analytics pipelines.

March 2025 monthly summary for cosipy (cositools/cosipy). Key outcomes focused on delivering business-value features and robustness for data processing and visualization. Key features delivered: - Energy-based data filtering for UnBinnedData: added select_data_energy to dataIO to filter unbinned data by energy range (emin, emax); supports reading input data from a file and saving filtered results to a new file, enabling targeted energy-domain analyses in downstream pipelines. - PsiChi map plotting robustness and external data support: improved plotting for PsiChi maps with local coordinates; refactored plotting logic to correctly handle coordinate systems and ensure Galactic coordinates ('G') are used when appropriate; added capability for plot_psichi_map to ingest external binned data for visualization and comparison. Major bugs fixed: - Fixed plotting for PsiChi map with local coordinates; improved coordinate-system handling and ensured correct use of Galactic coordinates where applicable; enhanced compatibility with external binned data inputs. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Enabled precise, repeatable energy-filtered data workflows and more reliable, coordinate-system-robust visualizations. These changes reduce manual data wrangling, improve the accuracy of analytics, and enhance interoperability with external datasets, supporting faster, more confident decision-making and pipeline automation. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Python data I/O and data processing (dataIO energy selection), plotting and coordinate system handling, plotting robustness, support for external data inputs, and refactoring for maintainability.
