apply_time_delta_cleaning¶

ctapipe.image.cleaning.apply_time_delta_cleaning(geom, mask, arrival_times, min_number_neighbors, time_limit)[source]¶

Identify all pixels from selection that have less than N neighbors that arrived within a given timeframe.

Parameters

geom: `ctapipe.instrument.CameraGeometry`: Camera geometry information
mask: array, boolean: boolean mask of clean pixels before time_delta_cleaning
arrival_times: array: pixel timing information
min_number_neighbors: int: Threshold to determine if a pixel survives cleaning steps. These steps include checks of neighbor arrival time and value
time_limit: int or float: arrival time limit for neighboring pixels

Returns
