From e159b74e05b3df9d92226d29b2f10e35be645fdb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kalidke Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2025 12:08:40 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix sCMOS scalar calibration memory access bug (Issue #37) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Allow sCMOS cameras to use scalar calibration values for modern uniform sensors like Orca Fusion, while preventing memory corruption when CalibrationFilePath is empty. Changes: - convertToPhotons.m: Auto-expand scalar gain/offset/readnoise to 2D arrays matching image dimensions when all three are scalars - SingleMoleculeFitting.m: Update documentation to clarify that sCMOS can now accept either pixel-wise arrays OR scalars - unitTest.m: Add test case for sCMOS scalar calibration, fix test assertions to handle expanded arrays The fix preserves backward compatibility with existing pixel-wise calibration while enabling simplified calibration for low-variation modern sCMOS sensors.
