spac.data_utils.calculate_centroid(data, x_min, x_max, y_min, y_max, new_x, new_y)[source]

Calculate the spatial coordinates of the cell centroid as the average of min and max coordinates.

Parameters:

  • data (pd.DataFrame) – The input data frame. The dataframe should contain four columns for x_min, x_max, y_min, and y_max for centroid calculation.

  • x_min (str) – column name with minimum x value

  • x_max (str) – column name with maximum x value

  • y_min (str) – column name with minimum y value

  • y_max (str) – column name with maximum y value

  • new_x (str) – the new column name of the x dimension of the cientroid, allowing characters are alphabetic, digits and underscore

  • new_y (str) – the new column name of the y dimension of the centroid, allowing characters are alphabetic, digits and underscore

Returns:

data – dataframe with two new centroid columns addded. Note that the dataframe is modified in place.

Return type:

pd.DataFrame
