tb_temporal_band_power — 2D typed op

Data kinds: videoimage

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "tb_temporal_band_power", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

tb_temporal_band_power: input → output

*The figure is the actual output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output. Point clouds are drawn as a top-down scatter (brightness = z), 1-D series as a line plot, volumes as the maximum-intensity projection along z, videos as the middle frame, complex images as magnitude; return values that are not pictures are shown as the values themselves.*

*The output is shown in a viridis-like pseudo-colour (dark purple = low, yellow = high) so that a field of quantities — distance, phase, orientation, depth — can be read.*

*Knob a does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*

*Knob b does not change the output (measured: identical at 0.1 / 0.5 / 0.9).*

Usage

Per-pixel mean-square power inside a temporal band -> `(H, W)` map.

"Where in the frame is something moving at this frequency?" — a resonance

map. The value at a pixel is the mean over time of the squared band-passed

signal, so a pure sinusoid of amplitude `a` inside the band reads exactly

`a^2/2 (Parseval; measured relative error 3.08e-16 for a = 0.3`).

This is an *analysis map*, not a displayable image: it is a power and is not

bounded by 1. Pixels with no in-band content read 0.

Typed bridge of the motionmag op `temporal_band_power into the 2-D evolution registry: the same implementation, called under the op(v, a, b) convention. This op has no tunable parameter; a and b` are unused.

References (sample data, literature)

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).

• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.

Runnable examples (verified samples that actually call this op)

The examples below call the underlying ledger op temporal_band_power. This bridge op is the same implementation adapted to the fn(v, a, b) convention, so the behaviour carries over unchanged (only the call form differs).
