Month: 2025-11 Key features delivered - Weigh fitting by Poisson sigmas: added weigh_fit_by_poisson_sigmas parameter to the fitting functions and propagated to related areas including led_calibration. - Alignment seeds utilities: defined get_alignment_seeds_dataframe() and get_alignment_seeds(), with seed helpers and improvements; tolerant to NaNs. - LED calibration waveform alignment: implemented waveform alignment in led_calibration analysis and related utilities (align_waveforms_by_correlation) with updated default parameters. - Vendor-aware data handling: introduced vendor dataframe utilities (get_sipm_vendor_dataframe, get_vendor) and enforced vendor metadata in alignment seeds. - Alignment logic improvements and plotting: derived integration limits from data, computed average pulse position from data, and added warnings for cross-channel seeds; disabled legends in plots; overlayed average waveform on persistence heatmaps. - Entire-pulse-integration and seed enforcement: added entire-pulse-integration feature in alignment workflow and vendor-based seed enforcement when vendor is available. - Fine-selection enhancements and robustness: added get_fine_selection_regions() and regions_limits_are_consistent(); switched alignment and fine-selection order; saved/ plotted fine-selection limits. - Documentation and maintenance: updated led_calibration/params.yml with documentation; performed code cleanup (remove unused imports); improved exception handling in get_pulse_window_limits; addressed edge case of sliced waveforms shorter than SPE template. Major bugs fixed - Fixed missing import in led_calibration/utils.py. - Deleted unused imports and performed general code cleanup. - Improved exception handling in get_pulse_window_limits and handled edge cases where waveforms are shorter than the SPE template. Overall impact and accomplishments - Significantly increased calibration accuracy and alignment robustness through data-driven limits, Poisson-weighted fitting, and waveform alignment. - Strengthened data integrity with vendor-aware utilities and seed enforcement, reducing downstream errors in analysis pipelines. - Improved maintainability, documentation, and visualization quality, enabling faster iteration and clearer communication of results. Technologies/skills demonstrated - Python, pandas/dataframes, waveform analysis, Poisson-based weighting, alignment algorithms, data validation, and software maintenance. - End-to-end feature delivery from data handling to visualization and documentation, reflecting strong cross-cutting engineering impact.
