Universal Spectroscopy and Imaging Data (h5USID)
------------------------------------------------
.. note::
To read this format, the optional dependency ``pyUSID`` is required.
Background
^^^^^^^^^^
`Universal Spectroscopy and Imaging Data <https://pycroscopy.github.io/USID/about.html>`_
(USID) is an open, community-driven, self-describing, and standardized schema for
representing imaging and spectroscopy data of any size, dimensionality, precision,
instrument of origin, or modality. USID data is typically stored in
Hierarchical Data Format Files (HDF5) and the combination of USID within ``.hdf5``
files is referred to as h5USID.
`pyUSID <https://pycroscopy.github.io/pyUSID/about.html>`_
provides a convenient interface to I/O operations on such h5USID files. USID
(via pyUSID) forms the foundation for other materials microscopy scientific
python package called `pycroscopy <https://pycroscopy.github.io/pycroscopy/about.html>`_.
If you have any questions regarding this module, please consider
`contacting <https://pycroscopy.github.io/pyUSID/contact.html>`_
the developers of pyUSID.
Also see the :ref:`hdf5-utils` for inspecting HDF5 files.
.. Note::
h5USID files can contain multiple USID datasets within the same file.
RosettaSciIO supports reading in one or more USID datasets.
.. Note::
When writing files with this plugin, the model and other secondary data
artifacts linked to the signal are not written to the file but these can be
implemented at a later stage.
Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^
Reading and writing h5USID files requires the
`installation of pyUSID <https://pycroscopy.github.io/pyUSID/install.html>`_.
In `HyperSpy <https://hyperspy.org>`_, files must use the ``.h5`` file extension
in order to use this IO
plugin or the ``reader=usid_hdf5`` parameter of the ``load`` function needs to be
set explicitly. Otherwise, using the ``.hdf5`` extension will default to the
:ref:`HyperSpy plugin <hspy-format>`.
API functions
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. automodule:: rsciio.usid

Usage examples
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Reading the sole dataset within a h5USID file using `HyperSpy
<https://hyperspy.org>`_:
.. code-block:: python
>>> import hyperspy.api as hs
>>> hs.load("sample.h5")
<Signal2D, title: HAADF, dimensions: (|128, 128)>
If multiple datasets are present within the h5USID file, **all** available
datasets will be loaded.
.. Note::
Given that HDF5 files can accommodate very large datasets, setting ``lazy=True``
is strongly recommended if the contents of the HDF5 file are not known apriori.
This prevents issues with regard to loading datasets far larger than memory.
Also note that setting ``lazy=True`` leaves the file handle to the HDF5 file open.
If it is important that the files be closed after reading, set ``lazy=False``.
.. code-block:: python
>>> hs.load("sample.h5")
[<Signal2D, title: HAADF, dimensions: (|128, 128)>,
<Signal1D, title: EELS, dimensions: (|64, 64, 1024)>]
We can load a specific dataset using the ``dataset_path`` keyword argument.
Setting it to the absolute path of the desired dataset will cause the single
dataset to be loaded.
.. code-block:: python
>>> # Loading a specific dataset
>>> hs.load("sample.h5", dataset_path='/Measurement_004/Channel_003/Main_Data')
<Signal2D, title: HAADF, dimensions: (|128, 128)>
h5USID files support the storage of HDF5 dataset with `compound data types
<https://pycroscopy.github.io/USID/usid_model.html#compound-datasets>`_. As an
(*oversimplified*) example, one could store a color image using a compound data
type that allows each color channel to be accessed by name rather than an index.
Naturally, reading in such a compound dataset into HyperSpy will result in a
separate signal for each named component in the dataset:
.. code-block:: python
>>> hs.load("file_with_a_compound_dataset.h5")
[<Signal2D, title: red, dimensions: (|128, 128)>,
Signal2D, title: blue, dimensions: (|128, 128)>,
Signal2D, title: green, dimensions: (|128, 128)>]
h5USID files also support parameters or dimensions that have been varied non-uniformly.
Currently, the reading of non-uniform axes is not implemented in RosettaSciIO, the USID plugin
will default to a warning when it encounters a parameter that has been varied non-uniformly:
.. code-block:: python
>>> hs.load("sample.h5")
UserWarning: Ignoring non-uniformity of dimension: Bias
<BaseSignal, title: , dimensions: (|7, 3, 5, 2)>
In order to prevent accidental misinterpretation of information downstream, the keyword argument
``ignore_non_uniform_dims`` can be set to ``False`` which will result in a ``ValueError`` instead.
.. code-block:: python
>>> hs.load("sample.h5")
ValueError: Cannot load provided dataset. Parameter: Bias was varied non-uniformly.
Supply keyword argument "ignore_non_uniform_dims=True" to ignore this error
