We consider continuous-time sparse stochastic processes from which we have only a finite number of noisy/noiseless samples. Our goal is to estimate the noiseless samples (denoising) and the signal in-between (interpolation problem). By…

Estimating the number of signals embedded in noise is a fundamental problem in array signal processing. The classic RMT estimator based on random matrix theory (RMT) tends to under-estimate the number of signals as it does not consider the…

Polarization induced by cosmological scalar perturbations leads to a typical anisotropy pattern, which can best be analyzed in Fourier domain. This allows one to unambiguously distinguish cosmological signal of polarization from other…

Phase retrieval (PR) is a popular research topic in signal processing and machine learning. However, its performance degrades significantly when the measurements are corrupted by noise or outliers. To address this limitation, we propose a…

Direction-dependent instrumental polarisation introduces wide-field polarimetric aberrations and limits the dynamic range of low-frequency interferometric images. We therefore provide a detailed two-dimensional analysis of the Giant…
