We describe the production and verification of sky maps of the five SPIRE fields observed as part of the Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES) during the Science Demonstration Phase (SDP) of the Herschel mission. We have…
There are many practical applications based on the Least Square Error (LSE) or Total Least Square Error (TLSE) methods. Usually the standard least square error is used due to its simplicity, but it is not an optimal solution, as it does not…
Sparse phase retrieval plays an important role in many fields of applied science and thus attracts lots of attention. In this paper, we propose a \underline{sto}chastic alte\underline{r}nating \underline{m}inimizing method for…
An improved method for subtracting contaminants from Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) sky maps is presented, and used to estimate how well future experiments will be able to recover the primordial CMB fluctuations. We find that the naive…
With a particular focus on Scipy's minimize function the eclipse mapping method is thoroughly researched and implemented utilizing Python and essential libraries. Many optimization techniques are used, including Sequential Least Squares…
This paper presents a formulation of Snapshot Positioning as a mixed-integer least-squares problem. In snapshot positioning one estimates a position from code-phase and possibly Doppler observations of a Global Navigation Satellite Systems…
We present a data reduction pipeline written in Python for data obtained with the near-infrared cross-dispersed echelle spectrograph, WINERED, which yields a 0.91$-$1.35 $\mu$m spectrum with the resolving power of $R_{\text{max}} \equiv…
The Digital Access to a Sky Century@Harvard (DASCH) project is digitizing the ~500,000 glass plate images obtained (full sky) by the Harvard College Observatory from 1885-1992. Astrometry and photometry for each resolved object are derived…
Imputation of missing data in large regions of satellite imagery is necessary when the acquired image has been damaged by shadows due to clouds, or information gaps produced by sensor failure. The general approach for imputation of missing…
In recent years, astronomical photometry has been revolutionised by space missions such as MOST, CoRoT and Kepler. However, despite this progress, high-quality spectroscopy is still required as well. Unfortunately, high-resolution spectra…
This work presents the initial results of the drift-scan observation for the neutral hydrogen (HI) intensity mapping survey with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The data analyzed in this work were collected…
This paper develops a variant of the Least Squares Shadowing (LSS) method, which has successfully computed the derivative for several chaotic ODEs and PDEs. The development in this paper aims to simplify Least Squares Shadowing method by…
Component separation for the Planck HFI data is primarily concerned with the estimation of thermal dust emission, which requires the separation of thermal dust from the cosmic infrared background (CIB). For that purpose, current estimation…
Accurate estimation of the cascaded channel from a user equipment (UE) to a base station (BS) via each reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) element is critical to realizing the full potential of the RIS's ability to control the overall…
Partial Least Square (PLS) is a dimension reduction method used to remove multicollinearities in a regression model. However contrary to Principal Components Analysis (PCA) the PLS components are also choosen to be optimal for predicting…
We are focused on improving the resolution of images of moving targets in Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging. This could be achieved by recovering the scattering points of a target that have stronger reflections than other…
Context: Observations of transitional disks give us an understanding of the formation of planets and planetary systems such as our own. But care must be taken in the identification of such sources: the higher spatial resolution of the…
Partial least squares, as a dimension reduction method, has become increasingly important for its ability to deal with problems with a large number of variables. Since noisy variables may weaken the performance of the model, the sparse…
The boloSource() algorithm is a tool to separate the signal of compact sources from that of the diffuse background in the timeline of far-infrared measurements performed by the PACS camera of the Herschel Space Observatory. An important…
We use Herschel PACS and SPIRE observations of the edge-on spiral galaxy UGC 4754, taken as part of the H-ATLAS SDP observations, to investigate the dust energy balance in this galaxy. We build detailed SKIRT radiative models based on SDSS…
