implement xb.plot_bitinformation for 16- and 64-bit inputs

[aaronspring]

currently only plots correctly for 32bit, see #167

[aaronspring]

once implemented can remove .astype(float32) in quickstart

[aaronspring]

implementation idea:

[kar-hik]

Can you assign me this issue, I can work on this?

[kar-hik]

info_per_bit_cleaned = info_per_bit.where(info_per_bit > info_per.isel(bit64=slice(-4, None)).max() * 1.5)
info_per_bit_cleaned.to_array().plot(yincrease=False)
will this code work for bit64?

[aaronspring]

It should IMO but won't have the nicely formatted xticklabels, the step line for the 99% threshold etc

[kar-hik]

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

Set threshold at 1.5 times the max value of bit64

threshold = info_per_bit.isel(bit64=slice(-4, None)).max() * 1.5

Select values above threshold

info_per_bit_cleaned = info_per_bit.where(info_per_bit > threshold)

Plot data

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
info_per_bit_cleaned.plot(ax=ax, yincrease=False)

Format xticklabels

ax.set_xticks(range(len(info_per_bit_cleaned.bit64)))
ax.set_xticklabels(info_per_bit_cleaned.bit64.values, rotation=90, fontsize=8)

Add step line for 99% threshold

ax.axhline(threshold, linestyle='--', color='r', linewidth=1)

Set axis labels and title

ax.set_xlabel('Bit position')
ax.set_ylabel('Information (bits)')
ax.set_title('Information content of bit positions in sequence')

plt.show()

hope atleast this works?

Please open a PR with that code and we will see in the rtd documentation of that branch the result

I have created the PR with the code and i would like to give proposal for the GSoc 2023 so i wanted to know where can i submit the proposal sir?

Hi @kar-hik,
sorry for the messed-up link. It is now corrected but because the deadline has passed this is of course not very helpful. The correct link was also posted on the wiki page though. I'm afraid it is too late for this year's GSoC, I cannot submit your proposal. I encourage you to apply next year again. If you are a citizen of Europe or currently work there, you might also want to look at the ECMWF Code4Earth challenges, in particular challenge 13. The application process is still open there.

[observingClouds]

Hi @kar-hik,
Are you still interested in finishing up this issue and create a PR? I think you are quite close to the finish line!

[observingClouds]

This is now eventually fixed by #218
