BCDI: tools for pre(post)-processing Bragg and forward coherent X-ray diffraction imaging data

Introduction

BCDI stands for Bragg coherent X-ray diffraction imaging. It can be used for:

  • pre-processing BCDI and forward CDI data (masking aliens, detector gaps ...) before phase retrieval
  • post-processing after phase retrieval (phase offset and phase ramp removal, averaging, apodization, ...)
  • data analysis on diffraction data (stereographic projection, angular cross-correlation analysis, domain orientation fitting ...)
  • data analysis on phased data (resolution calculation, statistics on the retrieved strain ...)
  • simulation of diffraction intensity (including noise, detector gaps, displacement field ...)
  • creating figures for publication using templates

Considering that most parts of the analysis pipeline are actually beamline-independent, we tried to reuse as much as possible code, and leverage inheritance when it comes to facility or beamline-dependent details.

BCDI as a python toolkit

BCDI can be used as a python library with the following main modules:

  1. :mod:`bcdi.algorithms`: PSF and image deconvolution using Richardson-Lucy algorithm
  2. :mod:`bcdi.experiment`: definition of the experimental geometry (beamline, setup, detector, diffractometer...).
  3. :mod:`bcdi.graph` : generation of plots using predefined templates.
  4. :mod:`bcdi.postprocessing`: methods for post-processing the complex output of a phasing algorithm. Stereographic projection of a diffraction peak or a reconstructed crystal. Automatic detection of reconstructed facets and statistics on facet strain.
  5. :mod:`bcdi.preprocessing`: methods for pre-processing the diffraction intensity in Bragg CDI or forward CDI geometry.
  6. :mod:`bcdi.simulation`: in BCDI geometry, calculation of the diffraction intensity based on FFT or kinematical sum. It can include a displacement field, noise, detector gaps etc... In forward CDI geometry, calculation of the Bragg peak positions in 3D for a mesocrystal, knowing the unit cell and unit cell parameter.
  7. :mod:`bcdi.utils`: generic functions about data loading, fitting functions, cropping/ padding, image registration, validation functions ...
  8. :mod:`bcdi.xcca`: X-ray cross-correlation analysis related methods

The central module is :mod:`bcdi.experiment`, which contains all setup-related implementation. This is the place where to look at if you want to add support for a new beamline or detector.

Acknowledgment and third party packages

We would like to acknowledge the following packages:

The following third-party packages are required:

  • numpy, scipy, scikit-image, matplotlib, pyqt5, vtk, h5py, hdf5plugin, fabio, silx, xrayutilities
  • lmfit: for scripts performing fits
  • pytest: to run the tests
  • pytables: to load the devices dictionnary for SIXS data
  • moviepy, imagemagick or ffmpeg for creating movies

Download & Installation

BCDI is available from:

  • the Python Package Index: python -m pip install bcdi
  • or on GitHub, where you will find the latest version:
- to install the main branch, type:
python -m pip install git+https://github.com/carnisj/bcdi.git
- to install a specific branch, type:
python -m pip install git+https://github.com/carnisj/bcdi.git@branch_name

Add the flag --upgrade to the commands above in order to update an existing installation.

Note that there are issues with installing scikit-image within an Anaconda environment. In such situation, the workaround is to create instead a virtual environment using pip.

Please send feedback in GitHub issues.
