The high planetary multiplicity revealed by Kepler implies that Transit Time Variations (TTVs) are intrinsically common. The usual procedure for detecting these TTVs is biased to long-period, deep transit planets whereas most transiting…
Time-varying inhomogeneities on stellar surfaces constitute one of the largest sources of radial velocity (RV) error for planet detection and characterization. We show that stellar variations, because they manifest on coherent, rotating…

Spatial-Spectral Total Variation (SSTV) can quantify local smoothness of image structures, so it is widely used in hyperspectral image (HSI) processing tasks. Essentially, SSTV assumes a sparse structure of gradient maps calculated along…
