Description

Functions

gwy_peaks_new ()

GwyPeaks *
gwy_peaks_new (void);

Creates a new empty peak analyser.

Returns

A new peak analyser.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_copy ()

GwyPeaks *
gwy_peaks_copy (GwyPeaks *peaks);

Creates a copy of a peak analyser.

This is mostly useful for language bindings.

Parameters

peaks

A peak analyser.

Returns

A newly created peak analyser.

Since: 2.47

gwy_peaks_free ()

void
gwy_peaks_free (GwyPeaks *peaks);

Frees a peak analyser and all associated data.

Parameters

peaks

A peak analyser.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_set_background ()

void
gwy_peaks_set_background (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                          GwyPeakBackgroundType background);

Sets the background type a peak analyser will use.

The default background is GWY_PEAK_BACKGROUND_MMSTEP. Note that the new background type will only be used in future analyses; it does not change the results of the already performed analysis.

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
background	Background type to use in future analyses.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_set_order ()

void
gwy_peaks_set_order (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                     GwyPeakOrderType order);

Sets the order type a peak analyser will use.

The default order is GWY_PEAK_ORDER_ABSCISSA. Note that the new order will only be effective in future analyses; it does not change the results of the already performed analysis.

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
order	Order type to use in future analyses.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_analyze ()

guint
gwy_peaks_analyze (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                   const gdouble *xdata,
                   const gdouble *ydata,
                   guint n,
                   guint maxpeaks);

Finds peaks a graph curve given as separated x and y data.

The peaks are remembered by the analyser and their properties can be subsequently requested using gwy_peaks_get_quantity().

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
xdata	Abscissa values (array with n items), must be ordered in ascending order.
ydata	Ordinate values corresponding to xdata .
n	Number of data points in the curve.
maxpeaks	Maximum number of the most prominent peaks to locate.

Returns

The number of peaks found.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_analyze_xy ()

guint
gwy_peaks_analyze_xy (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                      const GwyXY *xydata,
                      guint n,
                      guint maxpeaks);

Finds peaks a graph curve given as GwyXY data.

The peaks are remembered by the analyser and their properties can be subsequently requested using gwy_peaks_get_quantity().

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
xydata	Curve points (array with n items) that must be ordered by x values in ascending order.
n	Number of data points in the curve.
maxpeaks	Maximum number of the most prominent peaks to locate.

Returns

The number of peaks found.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_analyze_dataline ()

guint
gwy_peaks_analyze_dataline (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                            GwyDataLine *dline,
                            guint maxpeaks);

Finds peaks a graph curve given as GwyDataLine.

The peaks are remembered by the analyser and their properties can be subsequently requested using gwy_peaks_get_quantity().

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
dline	Curve data as a data line.
maxpeaks	Maximum number of the most prominent peaks to locate.

Returns

The number of peaks found.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_n_peaks ()

guint
gwy_peaks_n_peaks (GwyPeaks *peaks);

Gets the current number of peaks of a peak analyser.

Parameters

peaks

A peak analyser.

Returns

The currently remembered number of peaks.

Since: 2.46

gwy_peaks_get_quantity ()

void
gwy_peaks_get_quantity (GwyPeaks *peaks,
                        GwyPeakQuantity quantity,
                        gdouble *data);

Obtaines values of a given quantity for all found peaks.

Parameters

peaks	A peak analyser.
quantity	Peak property to return.
data	Array of sufficient length to hold values for all peaks (their number is returned by gwy_peaks_n_peaks()).

Since: 2.46

Types and Values

enum GwyPeakBackgroundType

Type of background available in graph peak analysers.

Members

GWY_PEAK_BACKGROUND_ZERO	The background is fixed at zero value.
GWY_PEAK_BACKGROUND_MMSTEP	The background is a step function connecting the nearest minima on the left and right side.
