About sagui

sagui is a photometric counterpart to capivara. The package keeps the general IFU segmentation logic, but it shifts the focus from representative median spectra to region-integrated photometric SEDs with uncertainty propagation.

This makes it useful for workflows where segmentation is only the first step, followed by:

  • SED fitting
  • region-wise flux integration
  • stellar population analysis
  • property-map generation

COIN Toolbox

sagui is part of the broader COIN Toolbox effort to provide open, reusable tools for astronomical inference, statistical modeling, and data-driven workflows.

The COIN identity is community-oriented, method-focused, and designed to support reproducible science.

Design Principles

  • concise public API
  • robust defaults for real IFU cubes
  • standalone transforms that can also be called inside segmentation
  • clear separation between segmentation and region-level summaries
  • optional acceleration without forcing heavyweight dependencies
