Accelerate xImage evaluation metrics with optional CuPy - #131
Image evaluation can use CUDA alongside reconstruction. Add an optional CuPy engine beside cuphoton.ximage.metrics for FFT sharpness, background statistics, finite coverage, PSNR and SSIM, using float64 computation and grouped scalar transfers. evaluate-reconstruction and benchmark-devices --evaluate accept --metrics-backend auto|cpu|cupy; reports identify the metric engine separately from reconstruction.
CPU selection uses the NumPy/SciPy reference. Automatic selection falls back when GPU setup is unavailable. Benchmark evaluation releases unused CuPy cache blocks before later Torch iterations. Photometry and WCS alignment remain in the Rubin adapter on CPU.
The mandatory xImage GPU suite covers all 33 cases without skips, alongside CPU tests for missing data, empty support, constants, backend failures, CLI routing and saved-run evaluation. Earlier production timings were not rerun for this integration.
Logarithmic Fourier sharpness can amplify FFT roundoff near zero spectral coefficients; select cpu for comparisons with CPU baselines.

Walkthrough
Adds CPU and CuPy image-metrics backends with automatic selection and explicit backend options. Reconstruction evaluation and device benchmarks use the selected backend, report metric results, and include backend-focused tests and documentation.

Summary
Metric backend contract and computation src/cuphoton/ximage/metrics.py, src/cuphoton/ximage/_metrics_cupy.py, tests/ximage/test_evaluation.py, docs/components/ximage.md
Adds shared metric evaluation with auto, cpu, and cupy selection. The CuPy path computes image summaries and pair metrics. Tests cover backend selection, validation, parity, and edge cases.
Reconstruction evaluation groups restoration, coadd, and exposure images for metric computation. Results include the selected backend and grouped comparison metrics.
Adds --metrics-backend to evaluation and benchmark commands. Device benchmarks forward the selection and release CuPy’s default memory pool after CuPy evaluation. CLI and benchmark tests cover option forwarding and pool release.

The CPU reference requested one CPU thread through OMP_NUM_THREADS, OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS, and MKL_NUM_THREADS; independent threadpool enforcement was unavailable. This is not an all-core CPU comparison. NumPy 2.4.6, SciPy 1.18.0, and CuPy 14.1.1 were used; CuPy reported CUDA runtime 13.2.
Values are medians of five measured runs after two warmups. GPU timing includes array upload, computation, and packed scalar-result download, with synchronization around each call. Input generation, file I/O, source detection, catalogs, and photometry are excluded. First calls share caches and are excluded; these are warm-call measurements.
All 24 case comparisons passed at rtol=1e-9, atol=1e-10, covering sizes 256, 1024, 2048, and 4096 with finite and partially missing pixels. The largest absolute difference among finite metric outputs was 2.665e-15; unavailable values matched. Across the four partially missing sizes, speedups were 3.91–14.99×, 2.02–2.94×, 1.96–2.92× respectively (table order). The 2048 inputs are byte-identical across systems; 4096 input hashes differ between CPU architectures, so those ranges are within-system results.
These structured, noisy fixtures do not bound FFT-sharpness differences for constant or nearly sparse spectra: the logarithm amplifies FFT roundoff near zero power. The unchanged metric formula and this limitation are documented. Parity checks metric definitions, not reconstruction quality.
The workstation measured source 7958207; GB10 runs used 782011a9. Evaluation source hashes match, and the intervening commit only updates CLI test counts. Each speedup compares CPU and GPU on the same system; platform differences prevent a pure GPU hardware ranking.
Subsequent CI-download and benchmark cache-release changes leave the measured preprocessing, reconstruction, and standalone metric implementations unchanged.

- Around line 94-99: Update compute_metrics in _evaluation_cupy.py to release
CuPy’s default memory-pool blocks after metric evaluation, including when
evaluation raises; keep the cleanup within this module and preserve the existing
returned metrics.

The CuPy engine covers the generic metric set, the part of evaluation that is useful in any imaging domain. CuPy paths were not run (CPU only). If evaluation splits as suggested in #127, _evaluation_cupy.py would sit beside the generic metrics module.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
The CuPy engine now sits beside the generic metrics module. The one CI failure on this head is tests/core/test_dragon.py under Python 3.14, outside xImage, and the push run for the same commit passed. CuPy paths were not run here.
Evaluate image statistics and finite-support similarity with CuPy.
Keep the CPU reference, select the engine through the API and CLI,
and report the metric backend separately from reconstruction.
Batch result transfers and document sparse-spectrum sensitivity.

Return unused CuPy pool blocks after benchmark evaluation so later Torch
runs can use that device memory. Preserve warm-pool reuse for standalone
metric calls and keep CPU evaluation independent of CuPy.
