Extractor Documentation

These three features are based on the Welch/Stetson variability index I (Stetson, 1996) defined by the equation:

$$I = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n(n-1)}} \sum_{i=1}^n { (\frac{b_i-\hat{b}}{\sigma_{b,i}}) (\frac{v_i - \hat{v}}{\sigma_{v,i}})}$$

where :math:b_i and v_i are the apparent magnitudes obtained for the candidate star in two observations closely spaced in time on some occasion i, σ_b, i and σ_v, i are the standard errors of those magnitudes, b̂ and hat{v} are the weighted mean magnitudes in the two filters, and n is the number of observation pairs.

Since a given frame pair may include data from two filters which did not have equal numbers of observations overall, the "relative error" is calculated as follows:

$$\delta = \sqrt{\frac{n}{n-1}} \frac{v-\hat{v}}{\sigma_v}$$

allowing all residuals to be compared on an equal basis.

StetsonL

Stetson L variability index describes the synchronous variability of different bands and is defined as:

$$L = \frac{JK}{0.798}$$

Again, for a Gaussian magnitude distribution, L should take a value close to zero:

>>> fs = feets.FeatureSpace(only=['SlottedL'])
>>> features, values = fs.extract(**lc_normal)
>>> dict(zip(features, values))
{'StetsonL': 0.0085957106316273714}
