Binospec is a high-throughput, 370 to 1000 nm, imaging spectrograph that addresses two adjacent 8' by 15' fields of view. Binospec was commissioned in late 2017 at the f/5 focus of the 6.5m MMT and is now available to all MMT observers.…
Recently, correlation filters have demonstrated the excellent performance in visual tracking. However, the base training sample region is larger than the object region,including the Interference Region(IR). The IRs in training samples from…
Temporal sampling does more than add another axis to the vector of observables. Instead, under the recognition that how objects change (and move) in time speaks directly to the physics underlying astronomical phenomena, next-generation…
Biosciences have been revolutionized by next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies in last years, leading to new perspectives in medical, industrial and environmental applications. And although our motivation comes from biosciences, the…
Localization and navigation are basic robotic tasks requiring an accurate and up-to-date map to finish these tasks, with crowdsourced data to detect map changes posing an appealing solution. Collecting and processing crowdsourced data…
Accurate simulation of astronomical observations is a critical element for any modern analyses, be it to measure event rates, analyses population properties, validate or train pipelines, account for selection effects, or correct biases. We…
As telescope facilities become increasingly more capable they also become increasingly complex and require additional resources to operate. This is particularly true for the current and future generations of "software defined telescopes"…
In order to support the study of recent advances in recommender systems, this paper presents an extended recommendation library consisting of eight packages for up-to-date topics and architectures. First of all, from a data perspective, we…
The machine learning community currently has no standardized process for documenting datasets, which can lead to severe consequences in high-stakes domains. To address this gap, we propose datasheets for datasets. In the electronics…
I describe our team's development of the SpeX Prism Library Analysis Toolkit (SPLAT), a combined spectral data repository for over 2500 low-resolution spectra of very low mass dwarfs (late M, L and T dwarfs), and Python-based analysis…
Future surveys such as the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory will observe an order of magnitude more astrophysical transient events than any previous survey before. With this deluge of photometric data,…
Dataset summarisation is a fruitful approach to dataset inspection. However, when applied to a single dataset the discovery of visual concepts is restricted to those most prominent. We argue that a comparative approach can expand upon this…
The ability to predict future structure features of environments based on past perception information is extremely needed by autonomous vehicles, which helps to make the following decision-making and path planning more reasonable. Recently,…
Unlike their line-based counterparts, surface-based techniques have yet to be thoroughly investigated in flow visualization due to their significant placement, speed, perception, and evaluation challenges. This paper presents SurfPatch, a…
This paper introduces versatile filters to construct efficient convolutional neural networks that are widely used in various visual recognition tasks. Considering the demands of efficient deep learning techniques running on cost-effective…
Recent advances have shown how decision trees are apt data structures for concisely representing strategies (or controllers) satisfying various objectives. Moreover, they also make the strategy more explainable. The recent tool dtControl…
We propose a novel service framework to detect changes in crowdsourced images. We use a service-oriented approach to model and represent crowdsourced images as image services. Non-functional attributes of an image service are leveraged to…
Tabular datasets are ubiquitous in data science applications. Given their importance, it seems natural to apply state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms in order to fully unlock their potential. Here we propose neural network models that…
We present a general theory of fractal transformations and show how it leads to a new type of method for filtering and transforming digital images. This work substantially generalizes earlier work on fractal tops. The approach involves…
Recent progress in graph signal processing (GSP) has addressed a number of problems, including sampling and filtering. Proposed methods have focused on generic graphs and defined signals with certain characteristics, e.g., bandlimited…
