avocado.Augmentor._simulate_light_curve_uncertainties

Augmentor._simulate_light_curve_uncertainties(observations, augmented_metadata)

Simulate the observation-related noise for a light curve.

This method needs to be implemented in survey-specific subclasses of this class. It should simulate the observation uncertainties for the light curve.

Parameters:
  • observations (pandas.DataFrame) – The augmented observations that have been sampled from a Gaussian Process. These observations have model flux uncertainties listed that should be included in the final uncertainties.
  • augmented_metadata (dict) – The augmented metadata
Returns:

observations – The observations with uncertainties added.

Return type:

pandas.DataFrame
