Delicious Galaxies!

KungPao (宫保) - Delicious Galaxies!

---

Besides being one of the signature Chinese dishes, kungpao can also help you deal with photometry of galaxies from recent imaging surveys (e.g. HSC, DECaLS).

Also, kungpao does not stand for anything because forced acronym is for psychopath.

Recent Updates

Applications

• Multi-stage objects detection and deblending
• Measure and subtract 2-D sky background mode
• Generate object masks for photometry
• Model 2-D light distribution of objects on the image

Installation

• python setup.py install or python setup.py develop will do the job.
• Right now, kungpao only supports Python>=3. If you are still using Python 2, you should make the switch.
• kungpao only depends on numpy, scipy, astropy, sep, astroquery, and matplotlib. All can be installed using pip or conda.

Documents

I promisehope that documents will be available soon...but right now, please take a look at the Jupyter Notebook demos for each functionality.
