This PR fixes the issue with the Bayes plots smoothing not functioning correctly for background parameters. The issue comes from the use of
scipy.ndimage.gaussian_filter1dinstead of a moving average smoothing as is used in MATLAB:smoothdata(N, 'movmean').This PR fixes the issue by implimenting a python version of
smoothdataand the function has been benchmarked against results from MATLAB.smoothdataautomatically calculates the averaging window to use but there is no real explanation on how this is calculated. This has been set to 8 as default as this is the value used by MATLAB for RAT data most commonly.Benchmark for noisy data:

Example of new smoothing for Substrate Roughness example:

Old smoothing:
