We model the impact of source confusion on photometry and the resulting spectrophotometric redshifts for SPHEREx, a NASA Medium-Class Explorer that is carrying out an all-sky near-infrared spectral survey. Spectral confusion from untargeted…

We develop a linear algorithm for extracting extragalactic point sources for the Compact Source Catalogue of the upcoming PLANCK mission. This algorithm is based on a simple top-hat filter in the harmonic domain with an adaptive filtering…

In multi-photon microscopy (MPM), a recent in-vivo fluorescence microscopy system, the task of image restoration can be decomposed into two interlinked inverse problems: firstly, the characterization of the Point Spread Function (PSF) and…
