Output Files
============

KBMOD outputs a range of information about the discovered trajectories. Each filename includes a user defined suffix, allowing user to easily save and compare files from different runs. Below we use SUFFIX to indicate the user-defined suffix.

The main file that most users will want to access is ``results_SUFFIX.txt``. This file contains one line for each trajectory with the trajectory information (x pixel start, y pixel start, x velocity, y velocity), the number of observations seen, the estimated flux, and the estimated likelihood.

The full list of output files is:

* ``all_ps_SUFFIX.txt`` - All of the postage stamp images for each found trajectory.
* ``filtered_likes_SUFFIX.txt`` - The likelihood of the trajectory computed only after some observations are filtered
* ``lc_SUFFIX.txt`` - The likelihood curves for each trajectory (:math:`L = \frac{\psi}{\phi}`)
* ``psi_SUFFIX.txt`` - The psi curves. Each curve contains a list of psi values corresponding to the predicted trajectory position at that time.
* ``phi_SUFFIX.txt`` - The phi curves. Each curve contains a list of phi values corresponding to the predicted trajectory position at that time.
* ``ps_SUFFIX.txt`` - The aggregated (mean, median, etc.) postage stamp images. One for each trajectory.
* ``results_SUFFIX.txt`` - The main results file including the found trajectories, their likelihoods, and fluxes.
* ``times_SUFFIX.txt`` - For each trajectory a list of the valid (unfiltered) times.
