probability or statistics - FWHM of an image


What is a resourceful method to calculate FWHM (full width at half the max) of every column in an image. Assuming the image is having a very high resolution for example 1944 x 2592.



Logic so far (applied to every column): sample image


gBW = ImageApply[Mean, zeroS];
data = ImageData[gBW];
datay = data[[All, 1]];

(* For column 1 through 1992 *)
datax = Table[i, {i, 1, Length[data]}];
ListLinePlot[data[[All, 1]], PlotStyle -> Thick, PlotTheme -> "Detailed"];
(*Colum 1 Peak*)
datay = datay/Max[datay];

L = Length[datay];
Mag = 4;
PP = 2.2;
(*Find the centerindex of maximum*)
CenterIndex = Position[datay, Max[datay]][[1]]; (*Find index of max, first occurence*)
(*start searching lead trail*)
i = 2;
While[Sign[datay[[i]] - 0.5] == Sign[datay[[i - 1]] - 0.5],
i = i + 1];
Interp = ((0.5 - datay[[i - 1]])/(datay[[i]] - datay[[i - 1]]))

Tlead = datax[[i - 1]] + Interp*(datax[[i]] - datax[[i - 1]])
i = CenterIndex[[1]] + 1

(* Start Searching for the next crossing at center *)
While[Sign[datay[[i]] - 0.5] == Sign[datay[[i - 1]] - 0.5] && (i <= L - 1),
i = i + 1];
If[i != L,
Interp = (0.5 - datay[[i - 1]])/(datay[[i]] - datay[[i - 1]]);
Ttrail = datax[[i - 1]] + Interp*(datax[[i]] - datax[[i - 1]]);
FWHM = ((Ttrail - Tlead)/Mag)*PP]


Is there a better approach to do this or a logic to find FWHM along all the columns on the image and plot the same? ( assuming it is going to be a huge number like 2592 columns)


Application: Spectroscopy.



Answer



This is a fast discrete approach


i = Import["http://i.stack.imgur.com/D2GVe.png"];
tid = Transpose[ ImageData[ColorSeparate@ColorConvert[i, "HSB"] // Last]];
nm = Max /@ tid;
Histogram[2.2/4 MapThread[Count[Sign[#1 - #2/2], 1] &, {tid, nm}]]


Mathematica graphics


Addressing @BlacKow comments below, the following shows that the method works well for this data because all the included segments are contiguous to the maximum:


f[n_] := TakeWhile[Ordering[-tid[[n]]], tid[[n, #]] > Max@tid[[n]]/2 &] // 
Sort // Differences
fr = f /@ Range@Length@tid;
Times @@ (Flatten@fr)
(* 1 *)

So, the following is "safe" for almost any reasonable dataset:


Histogram[2.2/4 ((f[#] // Split // First // Length) + 1) & /@ Range@Length@tid]




Edit


A more careful treatment gives almost the same result:


i = Import["http://i.stack.imgur.com/D2GVe.png"];
tid = Transpose[ImageData[ColorSeparate@ColorConvert[i, "HSB"] // Last]];
nm = Max /@ tid;
rr = Unitize@MapThread[Sign[#1 - #2/2] + 1 &, {tid, nm}];
mask = {{-1, -1, -1, 1, 1, 1}};
dilated = Dilation[#, 3] & /@ ImageData@

HitMissTransform[Image@rr, #, Padding -> 0] & /@ {mask, -mask};
nums = (tid #) & /@ dilated;
ranges = ConstantArray[List /@ Range@Length@First@First@dilated,
{2, Length@First@dilated}];
lists = MapThread[List, {ranges, nums}, 3];
onlynums = lists /. {{_}, 0.} :> Sequence[];
ints = Transpose@Map[Interpolation, onlynums, {2}];
FWHM = -2.2/4 Subtract @@@
MapThread[
x /. FindRoot[#1[x] == #2, Evaluate@{x, Sequence @@ #1["Domain"][[1]]}] &,

{ints, Transpose@ConstantArray[nm/2, 2]}, 2];

Histogram@FWHM

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

What is and isn't a valid variable specification for Manipulate?

I have an expression whose terms have arguments (representing subscripts), like this: myExpr = A[0] + V[1,T] I would like to put it inside a Manipulate to see its value as I move around the parameters. (The goal is eventually to plot it wrt one of the variables inside.) However, Mathematica complains when I set V[1,T] as a manipulated variable: Manipulate[Evaluate[myExpr], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, T], 0, 1}] (*Manipulate::vsform: Manipulate argument {V[1,T],0,1} does not have the correct form for a variable specification. >> *) As a workaround, if I get rid of the symbol T inside the argument, it works fine: Manipulate[ Evaluate[myExpr /. T -> 15], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, 15], 0, 1}] Why this behavior? Can anyone point me to the documentation that says what counts as a valid variable? And is there a way to get Manpiulate to accept an expression with a symbolic argument as a variable? Investigations I've done so far: I tried using variableQ from this answer , but it says V[1...
