Using the Pinch-Off Models
Installation
We recommend using pip, poetry, or uv to install the package.
Authentication
The SDK requires an API key for authentication. Sign in and create a new API key. Remember, your API key is your access secret—keep it safe with environment variables.

Usage Examples
Using the Pinch-Off Classifier
The Pinch-Off Classifier is a model that can classify a given current measurement as either exhibiting Pinch-Off or not.

Important Notes for Pinch-Off Models
- Input dimensions: Input dimensions should ideally match the specified resolution of the model for the best results. You may need to interpolate or downsample your data to match the required shape. You can find the required input shapes for each model on the models overview page.
- Data format: Input data should be a 1D numpy array representing current measurements as a function of gate voltage.
- Output format:
- The classifier outputs a boolean value (
TrueorFalse) indicating whether the measurement exhibits pinch-off behavior. - The parameter extractor outputs a dictionary with three indices:
cut_off_index,transition_index, andsaturation_index, which correspond to key points in the pinch-off curve.
- The classifier outputs a boolean value (
- Model versions: Higher version numbers typically indicate improved accuracy and performance. Check the models overview for the latest available versions.
