Analysis of INTEGRAL Core Program and public Open Time observations has recently provided a sample of 60 extragalactic sources selected in the 20-100 keV band above a flux of 1.5 10^-11 erg/cm2/s. As this band probes heavily obscured…
Most existing methods in binaural sound source localization rely on some kind of aggregation of phase-and level-difference cues in the time-frequency plane. While different ag-gregation schemes exist, they are often heuristic and suffer in…
We discuss point sources foregrounds for the MAP experiment. We consider several possible strategies for removing them and we assess how the statistics of the CMB signal are affected by the residual sources. Assuming a power law…
Direction of Arrival (DOA) estimation of mixed uncorrelated and coherent sources is a long existing challenge in array signal processing. Application of compressive sensing to array signal processing has opened up an exciting class of…
Inverse source problems are central to many applications in acoustics, geophysics, non-destructive testing, and more. Traditional imaging methods suffer from the resolution limit, preventing distinction of sources separated by less than the…
Wavelet-related techniques have proven useful in the processing and analysis of one and two dimensional data sets (spectra in the former case, images in the latter). In this work we apply adaptive filters, introduced in a previous work…
A new list of physical characteristics of 3914 astrometric radio sources, including all 717 ICRF-Ext.2 sources, observed during IVS and NRAO VCS sessions have been compiled. The list includes source type, redshift and visual magnitude (if…
We present the optical identification of mid-IR and radio sources detected in the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) areas N1 and N2. Using the r' band optical data from the Wide Field Survey we apply a likelihood ratio method to search…
In this paper, we propose a robust secrecy transmission scheme for intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) aided communication systems. Different from all the existing works where IRS has already been deployed at a fixed location, we take the…
We present the Final Analysis of the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS) 15 $\mu$m observations, carried out with the ISOCAM instrument on board the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The data reduction method, known as LARI method, is…
This paper extends the method introduced in Rivi et al. (2016b) to measure galaxy ellipticities in the visibility domain for radio weak lensing surveys. In that paper we focused on the development and testing of the method for the simple…
Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) technique allows us to determine positions of thousands of radio sources using the absolute astrometry approach. I have investigated the impact of a selection of observing frequencies in a range from…
The space astrometry mission GAIA will construct a dense optical QSO-based celestial reference frame. For consistency between optical and radio positions, it will be important to align the GAIA frame and the International Celestial…
Sub-percent level accuracy in shear measurement is required by the Stage-IV weak lensing surveys. One important challenge is about suppressing the shear bias on source images of low signal-to-noise ratios (SNR$\lesssim10$). Previously, it…
Identifying a gas source in turbulent environments presents a significant challenge for critical applications such as environmental monitoring and emergency response. This issue is addressed through an approach that combines distributed IoT…
Background and Objective: Processing electrophysiological signals often requires blind source separation (BSS) due to the nature of mixing source signals. However, its complex computational demands make real-time BSS challenging. The…
Between 1997 and 2004 several observing runs were conducted mainly with the CTIO 0.9 m to image ICRF counterparts (mostly QSOs) in order to determine accurate optical positions. Contemporary to these deep CCD images the same fields were…
The Australia Telescope Low-brightness survey (ATLBS; \cite{SESS10}) regions have been mosaic imaged at a radio frequency of 1.4 GHz with $6\arcsec$ angular resolution and 72 $\mu$Jy beam$^{-1}$ rms noise. The images (centered at RA:…
We present a new procedure for the internal (night-to-night) calibration of time series spectra, with specific applications to optical AGN reverberation mapping data. The traditional calibration technique assumes that the narrow…
This work presents a novel technique that performs both orientation and distance localization of a sound source in a three-dimensional (3D) space using only the interaural time difference (ITD) cue, generated by a newly-developed…
