Image simulation

.. currentmodule:: simfish

Functions used to simulate spot images, in 2D and 3D.

Simulation is performed in three steps:

1. We simulate ground truth coordinates.

   • :func:`simfish.simulate_ground_truth`

2. From an empty frame we simulate a gaussian signal in every spot location.

   • :func:`simfish.add_spots`

3. We add an additive background noise in image if needed.

   • :func:`simfish.add_white_noise`

The full process can be run with:

• :func:`simfish.simulate_images`
• :func:`simfish.simulate_image`
