A new technique is presented for producing images from interferometric data. The method, ``smear fitting'', makes the constraints necessary for interferometric imaging double as a model, with uncertainties, of the sky brightness…

Weak gravitational lensing has emerged as a leading probe of the growth of cosmic structure. However, the shear signal is very small and accurate measurement depends critically on our ability to understand how non-ideal instrumental effects…

In diffraction experiments with particle beams, several effects lead to a fringe visibility reduction of the interference pattern. We theoretically describe the intensity one can measure in a double-slit setup and compare the results with…

Purpose: Point-of-care MRI requires operation outside of a faraday shielded room normally used to block image-degrading electromagnetic Interference (EMI). To address this, we introduce the EDITER method, an external sensor based dynamic…

Image relighting is attracting increasing interest due to its various applications. From a research perspective, image relighting can be exploited to conduct both image normalization for domain adaptation, and also for data augmentation. It…

Here we introduce PHAT, the PHoto-z Accuracy Testing programme, an international initiative to test and compare different methods of photo-z estimation. Two different test environments are set up, one (PHAT0) based on simulations to test…

This paper introduces a quantitative evaluation of filters that seek to separate an image into its large-scale variations, the base layer, and its fine-scale variations, the detail layer. Such methods have proliferated with the development…

Background: Dual-energy CT (DECT) and material decomposition play vital roles in quantitative medical imaging. However, the decomposition process may suffer from significant noise amplification, leading to severely degraded image…

We present a highly efficient blind restoration method to remove mild blur in natural images. Contrary to the mainstream, we focus on removing slight blur that is often present, damaging image quality and commonly generated by small…
