plate_generator

Generate synthetic microtitre plate results with and without artefacts.

Installation

Examples

plate_generator creates plate objects, which have three main attributes:

• plate.data: typical combination of values and any artefact
• plate.effect: the artefact present on the plate
• plate.noise: the values with without any artefact

import plate_generator
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

edge_plate = plate_generator.edge_plate()

plt.imshow(edge_plate.data)

row_plate = plate_generator.row_plate()

plt.imshow(row_plate.data)

Plates can be combined with mathematical operations (+, -, *, \, ...)

combined = row_plate + edge_plate

plt.imshow(combined.data)

The artefacts can be separated from the noise.

plt.subplot(211)
plt.imshow(combined.effect)
plt.title("Artefact")
plt.subplot(212)
plt.imshow(combined.noise)
plt.imshow("Noise")
