This Wiki page is dedicated towards providing documentation on 8-ID XPCS Data Analysis, Visualization and some inner details of what is involved in the analysis. While mostly the documentation is given below, there are also some PDF documents with details.
Overview
The sections below provide description of Visualization of XPCS results followed by details on Data Reduction/Analysis of Raw Data to yield Correlation functions.
XPCS metadata and results are primarily saved into a HDF5 file format based on a Data Exchange format defined at the APS.
MetaData File (HDF5)
The concept is as follows: There are groups in the HDF5 file that are part of the Data Acquisition and these are categorized into the following:
 |
 |
 |
/measurement
/measurement/instrument
/measurement/instrument/acquisition/
/measurement/instrument/detector/
/measurement/instrument/detector/roi/
/measurement/instrument/detector/kinetics/
/measurement/instrument/source_begin/
/measurement/sample/
The above groups each contain several HDF5 datasets or parameters which have a scalar, vector, ND arrays or string attributes. The above are present in every metadata HDF5 file associated with each data acquisition. This file is saved in the same directory/folder as the raw detector images file itself.
Analysis Parameters (XPCS Group)
When a data set is processed which primarily means some sort of a correlation analysis, then the parameters that are needed to analyze the data such as:
- user defined mask
- wave vector maps (called as qmaps) where each wave vector or an azimuthal angle is characterized by a unique integer in what is called as a digitized map
- look up table that links the integers in the qmaps to the q/phi values
- Start and end frame numbers to be processed which could be a subset of the frames collected
- More intricate (meaning ones that are not changed from their defaults often) analysis parameters such as the multitau delay level, striding and averaging frames prior to correlation
- location of the file in the local as well as in a remote file system
- A very critical field which defines where the output of the computation - the results - are saved in the HDF5 file.
The above parameters (data sets) are saved in the HDF5 file in a special group called "/xpcs". Often, a user analyzes a given data set more than once if not several times which could each be under different conditions such as varying one or more of the above analysis parameters. While there might be a short sighted convenience seen in keeping these different analysis into separate HDF5 files, the concept of maintaining groups in the same HDF5 file has a higher value as the user will readily know all the different analysis or processing that are done to a given data set.
Embracing that idea, the current implementation defines the first time analysis group as "/xpcs" and the output of this analysis is saved into a group that is defined under "/xpcs/output_data" which usually points to a group named "/exchange".
For every subsequent analysis that is performed, the XPCS group is called "/xpcs_N" where N=1,2,3,4,..... In the same way as described above, "/xpcs_N/output_data" points to "/exchange_N".
 |
 |
Result Structure (HDF5 EXCHANGE Group)
The group called /exchange or /exchange_N in general, has all the analysis results and the fitting results of the correlation analysis in cases when fitting has been performed.
A picture showing what is in the /exchange group is given below.
A picture showing the case when multiple /xpcs and /exchange exist as a result of multiple analyses that has been done is given below.
- There are functions that are available to place the entire data structure into the Matlab workspace for processing that the user might want to do. The function is called as follows (as a default) with the HDF5 file as the only argument in which case it will open the default "/xpcs" group. Recently, a new function has been added called "select_xpcs_group" in which the user could specify a second argument called "first" or "last" which will then select the first which is "/xpcs" or the last which is "/xpcs_N" where N is the highest number found in that HDF5 file.
- viewresultinfo.result = loadhdf5result('FeO_20nm_film5_44p90mm_027_0001-0212.hdf');
- Alternatively, the user could call the above function in the following way in which case it would open "/xpcs_3" in the example below.
viewresultinfo.result = loadhdf5result('FeO_20nm_film5_44p90mm_027_0001-0212.hdf','/xpcs_3');
- A function called hdf5_find_group_suffix('FeO_20nm_film5_44p90mm_027_0001-0212.hdf','/xpcs') would return an integer N where N is the total number of "/xpcs" groups that are present in the HDF5 file.
Result Structure (.mat File)
While the above described HDF5 format offers several advantages and convenience, some times it is convenient to save the results into a native .mat file, which is the binary format of Matlab. (Note that as of R2016 or so, .mat is also internally a HDF5 file but the groups and data sets in such a file are not seen outside). The .mat file can be read using native Matlab funcion "load".
- load SPS64_140k_200nm_154C_F2_TimeSeries_avg.mat
OR
- load('SPS64_140k_200nm_154C_F2_TimeSeries_avg.mat')
will load the parameters saved in the .mat file into the workspace.
- Another useful command when using a .mat file is matfile which shows what is inside the file without loading any of it to the workspace.
matfile('SPS64_140k_200nm_154C_F2_TimeSeries_avg.mat')
Summary of Result Structure
Irrespective of the results being saved in HDF5 or .mat format, the respective functions (loadhdf5result and load) described above offers the exact same result structure in the work space so that the rest of the code (plotting, fitting, visualization) are agnostic to the format. The standard name for the structure in the workspace, when the functions are called as described above (especially for the HDF5, note viewresultinfo.result). This is a structure in Matlab which is a way to store several parameters comprising of numerics and strings in a hierarchical manner.
VIEW_XPCSGUI_RESULTS Visualization Package
- A visualization software package is provided that is called "VIEW_XPCSGUI_RESULTS" which is maintained in the APS Internal Version Control repository Subversion. The package is meant to handle results from either HDF5 file or a .mat file.
- The package primarily comprises of a GUI called "viewresult" which has easy pre-defined plots for visualizing typical parameters such as the SAXS I(q), Average intensity variation with time, I(q,t) which shows the SAXS variation with time and most importantly the time correlation functions, g2, as a function of q and phi.
How to process the Result Structure?
Below, a typical result structure is shown under two different scenarios.The variables are given names that are somewhat self-explanatory/intuitive but obviously might not be the case always. The general format for the different parameters involving q/phi are (#q x #phi x #dt). In cases where there is only one phi partition, it will look like (#q x 1 x #dt). These two cases are shown below along with a description to the right of what the parameter means to a user.

Averaging and Averaged Result Structure
Average of several individual batches each with a set of g2 at different q's (done using the GUI, select a set of batches to average and then use the Export tab at the right of the GUI to save the average results to a file. If not exported, the average g2s are plotted but not saved. Such an exported file contains the results of all the files, a field called viewresultinfo.result.batches2average: [1 2 3 4] which shows the batches that were selected by the user to average. The averaged results are always stored as a .mat file and HDF5 format is not made available so far (no reason except no major drive from any user)
A typical structure of such a file is as shown below:
load SPS64_140k_200nm_154C_F2_TimeSeries_avg.mat will return viewresultinfo to the Matlab workspace which looks as shown below.

ASCII Conversion of Result Files
The files shown below are part of the VIEW_XPCSGUI_RESULTS package.
The first file below is the file to be used which will call the file listed below. This set of functions will be used to convert single result files (resulting from the analysis of a single data set) that are not averaged.
- input_function_AsciiwithFIT_from_xpcsgui.m
- function_AsciiwithFIT_from_xpcsgui.m
The first file below is the file to be used which will call the file listed below. This set of functions will be used to convert averaged result files (resulting from the average of several individual analysis files).
- input_function_AsciiAvg_from_xpcsgui.m
- function_AsciiAvgwithFIT_from_xpcsgui.m
- function_AsciiAvg_from_xpcsgui.m (this is a less used file which is the same as the one above except it does not save the fitting results. This is provided as some users like to fit the g2 curves by themselves.
Ascii of Double Exp Fitting: The first file below is the file to be used which will call the file listed below. This set of functions will be used to convert single result files that have been fitted with a double exponential stretched/compressed relaxation (resulting from the analysis of a single data set) that are not averaged.
- input_function_AsciiwithFIT_DoubleExpFit.m
- function_AsciiwithFIT_DoubleExpFit.m
The format for the ASCII file for the different scenarios described above are given below.
ASCII without Fit %-- Converts a single batch result file to 4 files named as
%.IQASCII,.g2ASCII,.tauFIT1ASCII,tauFIT2ASCII
% IQASCII: 2 columns: q,I(q)
%.g2avgASCII: delay as the 1st column, measured
%g2@q=1, measured error in g2@q=1. The 2 columns are
%repeated for all q's. So for 18 q's, there
%should be 1 for delay+18*2=37 columns
%.tauFIT1ASCII: q, tau, error in tau
%.tauFIT2ASCII: q, tau, error in tau, exponent,
%error in exponent
Note: Even though this Ascii file does not save the fitted g2 data to the Ascii file, the tau and exponents from the fitting which are done anyway are still saved as part of these files.
ASCII with Fit %-- Converts a single batch result file to 4 files named as
%.IQASCII,.g2ASCII,.tauFIT1ASCII,tauFIT2ASCII
% IQASCII: 2 columns: q,I(q)
%.g2ASCII: delay as the 1st column, measured
%g2@q=1, measured error in g2@q=1, g2FIT1,g2FIT2. The 4 columns are
%repeated for all q's. So for 18 q's, there
%should be 1 for delay+18*4=73 columns
%.tauFIT1ASCII: q, tau, error in tau
%.tauFIT2ASCII: q, tau, error in tau, exponent,
%error in exponent
ASCIIavg %-- Converts the averaged batch result file to 4 files named as
%.IQASCII,.g2avgASCII,.tauavgFIT1ASCII,tauavgFIT2ASCII

%.g2DoubleExpASCII, .tauFIT3DoubleExpASCII
%.g2DoubleExpASCII: delay as the 1st column, measured
%g2@q=1, measured error in g2@q=1, g2FIT3DoubleExp. The 3 columns are
