Description
This PR proposes a one-line change in
quantize_electrons()
method of_Camera
.Specifically, it restricts the output to only contain positive values. Negative values can be introduced by the random sampling from the Gaussian distribution simulating the read-out noise.
Motivation
uint
. Hence, all negative values are mapped to large numbers in theuint
range (e.g., -1 --> 65534, etc., etc.). As a result, in the casted image we see some extremely bright dots in correspondence of what were the negative values before casting.
